“Working with Sara was an absolute dream!  I know what I like when I see it, but I had no clue how to get from how my kitchen previously looked to how I wanted it to look. I really loved the size of my kitchen, and the appliances & counters were in good shape, but I couldn’t figure out how to modernize it and introduce my style without spending a fortune.  

Sara made the whole process so easy. She narrowed down decisions, so I just had a few carefully selected things to choose from rather than an infinite number. She found and vetted reputable contractors and scheduled appointments. It really eased my mind.  

Prior to working with Sara my kitchen felt nice, but dated, and didn’t feel like it was mine. Now, my kitchen is bright, modern and classy. I feel like I’m at home now in my space. I want to host dinner parties often, and I have more of a desire to cook and keep my kitchen neat at baseline.  

I didn’t really have any concerns about hiring a designer besides cost, but it was well worth the price! If you’re thinking about hiring a designer, definitely do it! And if you’re in Pittsburgh, hire Sara at Dahlhaus.”

“We could not have had a better experience! Sara effortlessly guided us to select a cohesive and stunning color palette to bring our home’s walls to life. Five years after having built our home, (and living in white walls of indecision) we decided we needed some professional assistance to take the plunge into painting. The final product fit our style and family completely. In addition to paint colors for every room of our house, we also customized our mud room and first floor powder room with Sara’s beautiful designs. I highly recommend working with Sara! She is a delight and a talented interior designer. We are already looking forward to our next project with her slated for 2024.”

“We used Dahlhaus to renovate the powder room in our 1928 home in the Philly suburbs. It was yellow floor to ceiling (including tile, sink, and toilet), and we wanted more of a Greenbrier-esque look. Sara was super responsive to our vision, came up with multiple options, and really worked within our budget. Absolutely, 100% thrilled with the outcome. They also helped us refresh two ‘50’s era tiled bathrooms. We’ve already recommended them to friends, and will be using their services for upcoming renovations.”

“We love our house in Oakmont but our basement was outdated. Sara helped us reimagine the space entirely, to better suit the needs of our family. She brightened the personality of the basement, but also improved the functionality. It was important to us that our kids want to spend time there, and she was able to infuse whimsy in the decor. We are delighted in the result!”
