Yes, we design and build custom cabinetry of the highest quality, but most importantly, we create spaces in your home that embody what you are passionate about and allow you to function how you want.
A talented chef knows that great food is the intentional combination of great ingredients, and so it is with cabinetry design. I create spaces for your individual lifestyle by incorporating different textures and finishes – metal, wood, paint, glass and stone in a well-balanced and functional end product.
It’s the attention to subtle details, from the design to the finish that make Deco Design stand out.
For me, your project is not about designing and building another piece of cabinetry, but rather it’s about building relationships and creating spaces that improve your life and bring you balance. That is my passion and the reason my designs focus on symmetry and functionality. There is something to be said about the importance of balance. When there is balance in our lives, we feel better and are at peace.
I have always been a perfectionist. “Good enough” is not a phrase you will hear me say. I aspire for perfection in every project I undertake. It is a privilege to work with you, and you deserve the best.
For me it’s all about the personal acquaintances I make with the clients that become my friends, listening to their dreams or visions for their projects and turning them into reality, always wanting to please.
About Me
I’m Deron Johnson, founder and creator of Deco. For over three decades, I’ve dedicated my career to designing and building custom cabinetry and furniture for homes and commercial spaces. Throughout those years, I personally built every project that left my shop, giving me a deep understanding of not only beautiful design but also the craftsmanship required to bring those designs to life.
Today, my role has evolved.
After spending more than three decades building projects by hand, I’ve shifted my primary focus to what I do best—creating thoughtful, highly detailed custom designs and ensuring every project is executed to the standards I’ve spent a lifetime establishing. This allows me to devote more time to collaborating with clients, refining every detail of their cabinetry, and personally overseeing production from start to finish.
Although I’m no longer the one building every cabinet myself, I remain deeply involved throughout the entire process. Every project is still my design. Every detail is reviewed by me. I spend time in the shop supervising production, answering questions, inspecting workmanship, and ensuring that every cabinet is built according to my specifications and the level of quality my clients have come to expect from Deco.
Whether you’re building a custom home, remodeling a kitchen, updating a bathroom, designing a home office, creating custom built-ins, or furnishing a commercial space, my goal remains the same: to deliver cabinetry that is beautiful, functional, and built to last.
I believe exceptional cabinetry begins long before the first board is cut. It starts with listening, understanding how you live and work, and designing solutions that are both timeless and practical. By combining decades of hands-on building experience with a dedicated focus on design and quality oversight, I can provide my clients with the confidence that their project is being guided by someone who understands every step of the process.
My name may no longer be on every tool in the shop, but it is still on every drawing, every decision, every inspection, and every finished project.
As I enter this new phase of my career, it felt fitting to give the business a name that reflects where my passion has always been: Designs by Deco. While I now have the opportunity to focus on the part of the process I’ve always enjoyed most—designing—I remain committed to the quality and craftsmanship that have defined my work for more than 32 years. When you choose Designs by Deco, you’re not simply hiring someone to draw cabinets; you’re partnering with my experience, vision, and personal commitment to excellence from the first design concept through the finished project.
