WHAT WE DO
We design and create spaces that help people do their best work.
Empowering productivity by creating thoughtfully designed workspaces in Mid-Michigan through office design, furniture, and architectural products.
DBI creates thoughtful, functional work environments that support productivity, collaboration, and well-being. For over four decades, we have partnered with businesses across Mid-Michigan to design workspaces that bring out the best in their teams. Our expertise spans office furniture, architectural interiors, and workspace planning, ensuring that every detail works seamlessly for your organization.
Recognized with the Haworth Best In Class award every year since its inception, DBI is a trusted leader in office solutions. From ergonomic seating to modular walls and custom design services, we offer solutions that adapt to the way people work today. Our partnership with Haworth is grounded in a shared philosophy: that great spaces start with people. For over 14 years (and counting) DBI has been recognized as a Haworth Best In Class dealer, one of only a few nationwide to earn that distinction every single year since the program began.
SPACES WE’RE PROUD OF
Designing with Purpose
Our work is about creating environments where people can focus, connect, and do their best work.
- Comfort that supports well-being.
- Clarity that reduces distraction.
- Collaboration that drives progress.
- Purpose that gives people a sense of connection to their work.
Through our close partnership with Haworth, we bring industry insight and expertise to every project. Our ongoing recognition as a Best-in-Class dealer reflects the trust we’ve built and the standards we hold ourselves to. If you’re creating something new, preparing for a growing team, or looking to make better use of what you have, we’ll help you build a space that’s ready for what’s next.
Michigan School for the Deaf
DBI helped the Michigan School for the Deaf update its media center with flexible furniture (like fun BuzziPuzzle seats) and a more welcoming layout designed to support students throughout the school day.
Granger Construction
Granger Construction wanted a comprehensive redesign of its office that would integrate its corporate colors, add functional workspaces, and create flexible collaboration zones – all within a tight, two-month timeframe.
MSU Baker Hall
After the tragic events on campus in 2023, Room 155 became a place for students to gather and support one another. DBI helped MSU preserve that sense of safety and belonging in a permanent wellness space.
