About

Dawn DeLuca, AKBD CLIPP CAPS


Dawn DeLuca On Design is a boutique firm, based in, NYC. We provide design & consulting services to the trade & private clients


As an award winning designer, with over 25 years experience in the Design & Construction Industry, it has been a priviledge to help ​clients with a wide array of needs, design styles, and project scope.  I have had the joy of working on projects through out the US and parts of Europe.  Happy design clients make for a happy designer! My design philosophy is rather simple, “Your vision is Our passion”​​​​I come to every project with the knowledge that what works for others does not necessarily work for you!  When working with  my team you can rest easy knowing that every detail , every decision made is made with your best interests in mind.​​

I am passionate about Adaptable and Living In Place Design.  Hence, I attained my CLIPP certification in 2016. This speaks to my team's primary goal for every project, which is...
 
"Bring our client’s vision to life with a cohesively beautiful, comfortable, safe, and accessible space that reflects who 
they are."
 

With a strong focus on kitchen and bath, my firm also designs entire homes, outdoor living, and hospitality projects. 




​I spend a great deal of time advocating for the integration of Adaptable & Living In Place Design into all new build & remodel projects. Hence, I am honored to be designated the First Ambassador Member of The Living in Place Institute
and a Design Advisor for the Universal Design Project.

Volunteering in our industry is my way of attempting to give back some of what it has given to me.  I have been a local, regional & national volunteer with the NKBA since 2005.  As a member of the Board of Directors and Director of the American Northeast Region (2014-2016) I was thrilled to be working with the industry's top leaders & influencers. Currently, I am a member of the NKBA Manhattan Council where I am the Programs Chair.


I love sharing in an attempt to help others grow their knowledge base. As an Industry Speaker I have been invited to present to local chapters of ASID, AIA, NKBA & NAHB. Industry partners I have collaborated with are: Hafele, TOTO, Cosentino, Walker Zanger, DXV, Fisher Paykel, among others.


Continuing to learn and absorb new ideas & technologies is imperative to the success of every designer.  I am proud to
be certified: ​AKBD (Associate Kitchen & Bath Designer; NKBA).  CLIPP (Certified Living in Place Professional; Living in Place Institute). CAPS (Certified Aging in Place Specialist; NAHB).

Being considered a valued Influencer by my colleagues is truly humbling.

Imagination gives you the picture.
