History

Pioneers from various settlements came together in 1850 to form a township under the common name of Barrington. The Village of Barrington was established in 1965.  The Chicago and Northwestern Railroad eventually connected to the community. The village grew quickly.  As Chicago developed, so too did the countryside around Barrington. Advancements in transportation and the economic boom in the 1920’s allowed wealthy families to move into the suburbs and build family estates. Barrington was considered a prime location for these developments and the area enjoyed a great deal of prosperity.

Metro Area

With a 60010 zip code, it consists of six independent villages.  They include North Barrington, South Barrington, Barrington Hills, Lake Barrington, Tower Lakes and small portions of Carpentersville, Deer Park, Hoffman Estates and Inverness.

Real Testimonials

Dennis and DF Design were great to work with from start to finish! We initially called DF Design to help with choosing an exterior siding color for an addition that would match the existing roof and brick, but Dennis was so great and helpful that we also used him to help with all interior paint colors and redesign our interior first floor. Dennis made sure he always provided options within our budget and we could not be happier with the finished product! Thank you Dennis and DF Design.

My wife and I purchased our retirement home in 2017. We wanted to customize it to our style. The problem we encountered was selecting an exterior paint color to compliment the multi-color reddish brick which was on the lower half of the house. Dennis was selected to assist us with the extensive painting project. He was most attentive to our concerns regarding the house color and complimentary trim and accent colors. After surveying the house Dennis suggested a couple paint color combinations. His insightful approach made it easy to make a final decision. We have received numerous compliments from neighbors, family and friends. We are exceptionally pleased with the final results and would highly recommend Dennis for any paint color selection assistance you may need.
