Customer Says

I have used Design Harbour, (Shajesh Balan and Dhanashree Modak Balan) for renovating and improving couple of my properties. The principals of the firm are deeply committed to achieving the client’s objectives. They understand, discuss and convert client requirements into reality. Their personal commitment and involvement to be almost unique in the business.

Challenges were different as one was a small flat in Mumbai while the other was an old colonial building way out in the hills. Both projects were managed without problems. The projects required creative design solutions with practical advice to achieve successful project conclusions. They were efficient, innovative, inventive in problem solving and refreshingly easy to deal with.

The projects were managed efficiently throughout from beginning to completion. They communicated with me during the projects regularly to keep me abreast of the progress made. The plans were implemented with balance between aesthetics, quality, cost and schedule. The contractors and teams to carry out the work were well picked and carried out quality work efficiently and on schedule. Everyone was very friendly and helpful and it was a joy to work with them without stress.

Design Harbour brings to the table two most important attributes for a successful designer –

Creativity / Freshness of ideas coupled with a pragmatic / cost efficient execution. They had an excellent support team which delivered a Quality output within the stipulated time consistently for all our projects spanning over 5 years. Besides, we were very impressed by their personal touch & commitment to the work. It helped create a relationship which has lasted beyond the project completion. It has given us the confidence to recommend them to several of our associates / friends.

Our experience of working with Design Harbour was very satisfying. Their ideas were very original and classy. They understood our requirements very well. They completed the work timely and professionally. The finishing was excellent. They really converted our ‘Flat’ into a ‘Home’.

We would recommend Design Harbour for their excellent designing, professional approach and great attention to the user needs and comfort in an artistic manner.

Mr. Abhishek & Mrs. Neha, Mumbai

I am one of the many satisfied customers who have used Design Harbour’s services. Dhanashree & Shajesh recognize the value of great service and show professional concern for the quality of work performed. They were able to understand our requirements and transform them into reality. It was a pleasure to work with Design Harbour!!

Ms.Sampada Pai, Mahim West (Mumbai)

“When they first suggested having a grey kitchen, I wasn’t so sure coz I thought it would look very dull. But the way they combined the greys with the yellows and teals, my kitchen now has the perfect mix of elegance and zing! Such is the brilliance of Design Harbour. They have so many great ideas to go beyond the ‘standard’ and deliver amazing results.

Both Shajesh and Dhanashree were extremely polite, professional and a real joy to work with. In Design Harbour, I have found the perfect partner to re-do my house and I can’t wait to start the next project with them. Highly recommended!”

Raluca C., Bucharest (Romania)

We had a desire to renovate our house, the concept of redesigning the whole space was brought up by this young couple Shajesh & Dhanashree, who explained to us the role and aim of their company “Design Harbour”.

From their discussion, we viewed them not only as experienced, but trendy and their ideas matched ours in most areas.  After several meetings discussions, we decided to go ahead with their final design.

On the Final Handover day, it was a pleasantly unbelievable sight …. Our 1-bhk flat was converted into a 2-bhk flat at the first place, then two full-fledged bathrooms attached to each bedroom…. a fully functional open kitchen, a total makeover right from the main door entrance to every other area in the house.

Definitely this young couple worked with their ideas, imagination and transformed the whole area. It was possible due to their involvement in the work for our house, as though it belonged to them…. Without “Design Harbour” & Shajesh/Dhanashree, we would not have got a house, we are so thrilled with it today….

“You have the right to dream of a good house, but to make it into a reality, leave it to “Design Harbour”.
