I founded à la carte DESIGN in 2003, right after earning my degree in interior design. From the beginning, I knew I wanted to do things differently. No cookie-cutter solutions. No forcing clients into packages they didn’t need. I value honest, personal design that actually fits how people live.
I believe your home should be your sanctuary. That belief drives every decision I make for every client I work with. So when someone walks through a finished space and exhales for the first time in years, that is the moment that never gets old.
Design That Starts With Listening
Great design does not begin with a mood board. It begins with a conversation. Before I suggest a single finish or pull a single fabric sample, I sit down and listen. I want to know how you move through your home, what frustrates you about it, and what you have always wished it could feel like. That discovery process is important.
My approach is flexible by design, and that is not an accident. The à la carte model means you only hire me for exactly what you need. Some clients want full-service design from concept to installation. Others just need help selecting paint colors or rearranging furniture. Both are equally valid. My goal is to provide what you need.
As one client put it, “Jeane really listened to my worries and frustrations and turned them into functional plans for my new space. She was patient when I needed to think things over and really made me feel like a part of the process.”
That is exactly what I am going for every single time.
A Career Built on Community and Craft
I am a proud member of the Colorado chapter of the American Society of Interior Designers, and I have served on its board of directors. I also hold membership in the National Kitchen and Bath Association, which reflects one of my deepest areas of specialty. I like to say that I specialize in kitchens that cook, even if you don’t. Kitchens are the heart of a home. Getting them right changes everything about how a family functions day to day.
Over the years, my work has been recognized with multiple Care Awards (Colorado Awards for Remodeling Excellence), including wins for Basic Kitchen design, Pro Bono Accessibility, and Luxury Bath. My projects have been featured in Colorado Homes and Lifestyles, the Denver Business Journal, and RENEW Magazine. I even co-created and starred in a reality design show on Fox-31, where I had one day to transform spaces from chaotic to beautiful. No pressure. Look through my portfolio and awards HERE.
What Clients Experience
When I take on a project, clients often tell me they did not realize how much the right design would change how they feel at home. That feedback never stops meaning something to me.
One client shared this after a kitchen renovation: “We get compliments on our kitchen all the time. Her expertise and ability to listen and learn her clients’ interests is remarkable. It is so wonderful to come home at the end of the day to a beautiful kitchen.”
Another described a whole-home transformation this way: “I would have lost my mind if it weren’t for Jeane Dole. Her incredible talent and vision guided me through the maze of options, decisions, and construction challenges. I am now living in a home I love.”
The Philosophy Behind the Firm
I want to provide my clients with design that they love but could never have imagined on their own. That sentence is the core of everything. My job is not to impose my taste on your space. My job is to find your vision, refine it, and then build it into something that genuinely surprises you.
I build lifelong client relationships. It is not unusual for me to come in and out of clients’ lives across multiple projects over many years. I provide design solutions that address each client’s specific needs and lifestyle, always with proper attention to the bottom line.
When you work with me and the à la carte DESIGN team, you are not just hiring someone to make your home look better. You are hiring someone who will make it work better, feel better, and reflect exactly who you are.
