I used Joey Lang to decorate our Condo (2bdrm+den, 2.5 bath). Joey was creative and wonderful to work with. He was mindful of the budget and designed the condo with our input on color schemes and style. We truly got a place that was beautiful and elegant. WE would highly recommend Joey!

Joey helped us redesign our kitchen. His ideas and designs were far better than anything we had originally planned. The kitchen looks amazing and we are really happy that we hired Joey to help with the designs!

We LOVED working with Downs Design Group on our home remodel. Not only is Joey a gifted designer and talent, but he is easy to work with, he operates within your budget and our home looks amazing. We selected new pieces and Joey was able to repurpose many of our existing pieces to create a unified look throughout our home. Joey and his team really got to know us and our likes/dislikes and collaborated on every aspect of the design. We have recommended Joey to several of our friends who have used him and are equally delighted.

I work with Joey frequently as a fellow trade professional. I can attest to his design skills and intense product knowledge. He really stays abreast of all the new design products and is very well educated. His technical skill is unmatched by any of the other interior designers I work with, which is saying a lot, specially considering that I work with designers daily in my line of work. I highly recommend him for your next project. His product knowledge alone will save you many costly errors or poor material selections.

Joey is my favorite designer to work with! He is very good at understanding the needs of the client and working within those needs. He also has a great balance of introducing new concepts along with keeping within the needs of the client. On top of all of this Joey is extremely organized and knows how to keep a budget and has a keen understanding of how design relates to the whole project. Hire Joey and you will know that you are in great hands!

Joey is by far the most organized, conscientious, designer I have had the pleasure of working with in the Bay Area. He was always cooperative and responded to my communications with a confirmation of an anwer to my questions immediately. One of the traits I enjoyed the most, is Joeys, resourcefulness. He was respectful of the allowances in the contract so the job didn’t unnecessarily run over into costly change orders. He complied the line items needed to complete the job with his client’s budget and goes the extra mile in sourcing and creativity to adhere to that number. All this time, he never sacrifices attention to the design details. He was very respectful of the client’s bottom line and our time as the contractor. He was willing to complete the required schedules we use when partnering with a designer and work as a team to keep the model/ serial numbers, costs, quantities and delivery schedule all current. Working with Joey saved me time. His communication and level of professionalism is second to none. I would welcome any opportunity to recommend him and work with Joey Lang of Downs Design Group, Inc again.

I've known Joey for many years, and finally had an opportunity to work with him on a joint project, helping our mutual client make a major upgrade to his property and sell it for an increased profit. Joey handled the design and project management of the newly developed and constructed space, which included a master suite with full bath and walk-in closet, a new family room, and a laundry area. Joey worked closely with each vendor to create a fluid team, and an amazing finished product that was on-time and in-budget. He's a "can-do" kind of professional, and it was nothing short of inspiring to watch his abilities in coming up with such a functional and beautiful design, in remaining flexible with challenges as they came up, and in staying committed to his budget and timeline. I'm looking forward to promoting Joey's business to my clients, and will enjoy working with him every chance I get.

Joey with Downs Design Group has an amazing ability to visualize a space. His creativity and ability to mingle existing pieces with new pieces is a true asset when redesigning an existing space or a new one. I have worked with him on many commercial Class A office interiors with budgets that range in price from $10,000 to over $300,000. He is very organized and responsive and has has extensive knowledge of product lines and great relationships with his vendors. I think the key to his success is that he takes the time to do the work on the front end of a project to ensure that he understands the culture, environment, BUDGET, and overall look that is desired. He can sketch up plans quickly (and beautifully) on the spot! His ability to understand and meet deadlines was a relief. Rather than me having to follow up, he was always one step ahead and had already checked and re-checked orders and kept following up with progress reports. His ability to work with my various teams of people at different locations was great. He is resourceful and truly understands architecture, how the space will be used and what pieces will fit the space and the budget. Its a treat to work with a designer that doesn't just show me one line of furniture. He can combine the elements and splurge on certain pieces and scale back on others to fulfill the overall final look. He knows that I have deadlines and the work that he does makes me look good or better said great!

Joey Lang from Downs Design Group helped us transform our 1951 San Francisco house into a cozy, comfortable retreat that we wanted all along. Joey helped us pick the furniture, wall surfacing materials, paint, and accessories throughout a three-bedroom, 2000 sq ft house. Joey is really great with details and he has an amazing eye for the design. Working with him was easy, and although it took a while for the entire project to complete (about 9 months), we couldn't be happier with the result. Joey was also great about incorporating low cost items or our existing furniture, where budget did not allow for higher end items. Early on, in the project, Joey clearly understood the color and the style we were going for, so the items that he was proposing usually were right on spot. If you are looking for a designer, no matter if the project is big or small, I would highly recommend Downs Design Group's services.

My husband and I could not be happier with the results of our interior redesign thanks to Joey and Downs Design Group. Joey's talent, passion and understanding of style and design transformed our home into the classy, sophisticated, sanctuary and haven we always wanted but were unable to achieve ourselves. From the very beginning Joey's knowlege of design and space planning solved our room layout issues. And his creative sketches helped us envision the possibilities of transforming our home through interior design. He is patient, organized, and ensured we were satisfied with our choices in window coverings, rugs, and furniture. His uncanny ability to understand our taste and our vision for our home saved us endless hours leafing through countless options instead he presented us with products he thought matched our style and his suggestions for colors, materials, and textures, were always spot on. Thank you Downs Design Group for transforming and elevating our house into a stunning home!

can really do anything which I think is a rare and highly valuable quality in a designer. Joey is very considerate of the client's wishes while, at the same time, is able to guide them appropriately through the decision making process to achieve their vision.
