DJ Laings's story
Carnoustie & Dundee
"
Gary and the team are incredibly knowledgeable and reliable - they consistently deliver. We couldn’t be happier with their work - they make a house a home.
Since 2017, Millers Interiors has partnered with DJ Laings to furnish six of their stunning show homes across Carnoustie and Dundee.
For DJ Laing, building high-quality homes is just one piece of the puzzle. Showcasing them in their best light is just as important – it’s the glue that brings it all together. Potential buyers need to be able to picture themselves living there.
Collaborating with Millers Interiors has created the perfect solution. Their ability to provide everything from flooring to sofas and beds made them ideal partners in creating beautifully styled show homes.
Why DJ Laing Chose Millers Interiors
DJ Laing’s decision to partner with Millers Interiors wasn’t just about finding a supplier, it was about working with a local business that shares their ethos and values.
“Like us, they are a local family business. We believe in supporting our community and working with businesses in our area whenever possible. We build quality homes, and Millers Interiors provides quality furniture and flooring, so it’s a perfect match.” Karen, Managing Director of DJ Laing commented.
Creating the Perfect Show Home
The latest show home, located at the Malt Loan development in Carnoustie, is a three-bedroom detached family home.
The design process begins with collaborative discussions on current trends and how to create a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels like home.
“The last few show homes have featured grey tones, but after discussing with Millers Interiors, we opted for more beige and grey tones (greige) this time, as that seems to be popular at the moment.” Karen recalled.
A show home isn’t just about filling an empty house, it also helps potential buyers visualise themselves living there. Transforming a blank canvas into a warm and inviting home gives buyers a real sense of how the space can be used. From how the lighting to the flooring impact the room and how statement pieces can inject personality into the space. Every detail matters.
With Millers Interiors expertise, the latest show home featured:
- Acoustic wall panelling in the master bedroom for a high-end, luxury feel.
- A single wall panel with a mirror in the kitchen dining area creates a stylish focal point.
- Statement furniture pieces, add character and warmth throughout.
- Herringbone flooring throughout the downstairs, a standout feature that has been a real talking point among viewers.
- Soft furnishings including carpets, sofas and chairs to enhance comfort.
- Beds in each room, all complete with bedside furniture, to create a homely and ready-to-move-in feel.
DJ Laing has found that these thoughtful details don’t just make the show home look impressive, but they help them to sell. Buyers also take inspiration from the styling and often return to Millers Interiors for their own furnishings.
“The best feedback we can get from customers is when they have viewed the show home and say they want to replicate it in their own home. That tells us we’ve done our job right.” Gary Millers from Millers Interiors commented.
Future Plans
With future developments planned, DJ Laing’s are looking forward to continuing their partnership with Millers Interiors, bringing more beautifully designed show homes to life.
“Gary and the team are incredibly knowledgeable and reliable – they consistently deliver. We couldn’t be happier with their work – they make a house a home.” Karen commented.
