Design Group 47

Kitchen work is the thread running through Design Group 47. On Google, most of the recent praise is for kitchen design and cabinetry, and the company says it handles bath, flooring/tile, and design-build projects from its Peabody showroom for homeowners, builders, and design professionals around Greater Boston. It also says it has been serving that market since 2015 and is run by a father-and-son team.[E14950][E14951][E14952][E14953] The recent review history leans heavily positive. Google shows 4.8 stars from 32 ratings, and a long run of 2025 reviews calls out kitchen planning, custom cabinets, bathroom design, and communication during the process. Several customers mention Ivy or Peter by name, saying timelines were managed clearly, expectations were set up front, and the process stayed organized from planning through installation-related decisions.[E14942][E9616][E9617][E9618][E9619][E9620][E9622][E9623][E9625][E9626][E9631][E9633] One Houzz customer describes a builder workflow that included detailed estimates, daily photo updates, a project timeline, and invoicing at pre-agreed milestones. That lines up with the more recent Google comments about communication and planning, and it suggests this is not just a cabinet showroom pitch but a company people hire to coordinate real remodel work.[E14186][E9616][E9619][E9630] The main thing to ask about is what happens after the order is placed, especially if you may need corrections, replacement pieces, or added trim. A 2023 Google review says the design and ordering phase went well, but small follow-up items that shipped wrong and extra molding needed by the contractor turned into a prolonged problem. If your job depends on custom cabinetry, it is worth asking who handles punch-list items and how reorders are managed.[E9636] Design Group 47 looks like a better fit for homeowners planning a kitchen or bath project who want help with layout, cabinet selection, and a managed design process, not just a quick retail purchase. Before booking, confirm whether they are handling design only or the full build, and get the process for timelines, billing milestones, and post-order issue resolution in writing.[E14950][E14186][E9630][E9636]
