Kathleen did an amazing job helping redo our vacation home during the limitations of the pandemic. I found her to be quick to respond to any concerns, flexible in her designs, super creative and just a really nice person to work with! We are so happy with the result and glad we were lucky enough to find her.

Kathleen took charge and responsibility of our floor to ceiling beach townhouse renovation. She was onsite and hands on throughout the entire project. From generating ideas to choosing vendors to ensuring the work was done in a timely and competent manner, she is the complete package. She has a terrific eye and moved the project along from start to finish. My wife and I recommend her without reservation. Completely satisfied and very happy. Larry and Veronica.

I was absolutely thrilled with Kathleen. I am getting my house ready to sell and she came in really made small changed that brought radical change. She was fun to work with and really "got me" and what I needed. Just wish I had been able to work with her when we moved in!!

I cannot believe how Kathleen was able to change our 40-year old town-house into what it is today. Last summer, we bought a fixer-upper, and I mean *fixer-upper* and we never imagined that it could be a modern, beach oasis. Kathleen had amazing style and had such amazing ideas for how to update and open up the space. She is an expert at design and spacing and also knew all of the resources for contractors, etc. She was very patient with me when I kept changing my mind and responsive to my many, many questions. I could not have renovated this beach house without her and I highly recommend her expertise
