### Reviews

**★★★★★ — moca23, Jan. 2019**

> I have worked with and met Kathryn on numerous occasions. Every single time I love her great sense for modern design and her personal style. This alone is already worth 5 stars in my book. However, to top it all off, she also brings professionalism, knowledge about (plant and other) materials, intelligence, energy and a fun personality to the table. Kathryn has it all!
> If you need a great designer for your interior space or landscape project - who understands modern design, you can't go wrong with Kathryn!

**Comment from Prideaux Design:**

> Thank you Tanja! You know I think the world of you -  so this means so much coming from you!

**★★★★★ — jojobradford, Dec. 2018**

> I know first hand how concerning it is as a homeowner, to find someone who is the ‘real deal’. My husband and I had just finished a one year home remodel that we did not have a good experience with. So when we met with Kathryn, we were already on the defensive.  We needn’t have been - Kathryn is, without doubt, the most talented, professional and ethical person I have had the pleasure of working with. I rarely write a recommendation, so please believe me when I say, you are really in the best of hands with her

**Comment from Prideaux Design:**

> Thank you so much for this JoJo! I have so enjoyed working with you this year. We make a great team.  And pulling together all of the exterior furniture details is proving to be just as fun as the huge outdoor remodel. Thank you so much for your continued trust and support - you are awesome!

**★★★★★ — Leighton Rockafellow, May 2018**

> We hired Kathryn to transform our midtown Tucson backyard. It is a relatively small space that required some creativity. We wanted some play-space for our toddler without it looking like a playground. Kathryn came highly recommended and I can understand why. She met with us multiple times at length to discuss our needs and to get a feel for the style we were seeking. Her very first design was nearly perfect. She even met with a specialist to ensure that her final plans had correct elevation levels as flooding was a major concern of ours.  She has a great eye for working with whatever space you throw at her. She helped us find the right contractor to complete the project. She stuck around throughout the build to help with materials selection and any other hiccups. We are very happy with the end result. We will call Kathryn again if we have any future projects, either interior or exterior.

**Comment from Prideaux Design:**

> Thank you so much Leighton! Your project is a favorite! It was so much fun working with you and your family....I hope you all enjoy it for many many years!

**★★★★★ — Patricia Strickland, May 2018**

> Kathryn was a great partner to make our back yard and side entrance into an oasis. She was easy to work with , helped us visualize the design concept and was ready to go in a different direction when there were better choices. The pool, tile choices, fencing, walkway surfaces , lighting and landscaping were all part of the package.  Great to have one contact point for communication/coordination. So impressed we're starting another smaller project!

**Comment from Prideaux Design:**

> Thank you so much Patricia! I absolutely loved working with you both and I LOVE the results! I appreciate so much your willingness to be different and choose new and unique solutions : ) I can't wait to get started on the bathrooms!

**★★★★★ — Michael Bains, May 2018**

> Kathryn Prideaux did a wonderful job designing our new outdoor space.  Our project was very large and complicated and included complete demolition of our existing pool and spa.  Her design included many high end and beautiful and unique features such as a full overflow spa, misting system, high end lighting, water feature, and the like.  Kathryn was able to hit all the right notes of marrying materials with function.  She has a great eye for plants, landscape, and hardscape.  Kathryn found lots of interesting materials and applied them in eye pleasing ways.  Kathryn also made sure our exterior design elements and colors flowed beautifully with our current interior remodel.  Kathryn's fee structure was such that her fees were a small fraction of the entire project cost -- an excellent value.  I can't imagine spending the money we did and not going through the process of detailed design and planning.  Kathryn has a great eye and is aggressive and imaginative in her design and is not afraid to try big things!

**Comment from Prideaux Design:**

> Thank you so much Michael! I could NOT be happier with how everything all came together. I am SO proud of this amazing project and I cannot wait to photograph it to show it off : ) I can't thank you enough for trusting in my and the vision through the ENTIRE process. THANK YOU!

**★★★★★ — Aggie Turecka, May 2018**

> I have chosen Prideaux Design to help me design my dream kitchen not excecly knowing what my dream kitchen supposed to look like.
> Kathryn opened my mind to ideas, colors, materials and textures I otherwise wouldn’t consider.
> She made the whole process so exciting, easy and stress free. Kathryn introduced us to 3 different construction companies and helped select one that fits our needs best. As we start our remodel in just few week I can hardly wait to see the final product.
> Kathryn is not only a brilliant designer but also a great coordinator.
> I’m grateful to a friend who recommended Prideaux Design to us and I definitely will too.

**Comment from Prideaux Design:**

> Thank you Aggie! I absolutely can't wait to see your dream kitchen come to life soon!! I loved working with you both so much!

**★★★★★ — wooloomooboo, May 2018**

> Although my interior design project was relatively small, the impact of Kathryn’s exquisite design was huge.   She helped me totally transform my living room,  with a gorgeous feature fireplace/TV wall.  I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results, and I couldn’t have been happier working with Kathryn - she’s a consummate professional and a true delight to work with!

**Comment from Prideaux Design:**

> Thanks you so much! I have really enjoyed working with you...and your fireplace wall really does look incredible...I just love it!

**★★★★★ — Robert Coleman, Oct. 2016**

> Kathryn was a tremendous help in visualizing what could be accomplished - converting a neglected, outdated outdoor living spaces & landscaping. Kathryn's vision and use of elements of design created areas of great utility and high interest, all blending perfectly into the native environment. The very capable contractor she engaged to make the vision a reality could not have been better & stayed within the budget. We are extremely pleased with the results and look forward to many years enjoying our new exterior spaces.

**Comment from Prideaux Design:**

> Thank you so much Robert!! I am so thrilled with this transformation!!

**★★★★★ — C K Cabinetry and Design, LLC, July 2016**

> I have had the pleasure of working with Kathryn on exterior as well as interior projects.  Kathryn has a keen eye for color and the unique.  Clients enjoy her demeanor and she is reliable.  She has a group of well skilled tradesman she utilizes for her exterior concepts.  I enjoy collaborating with her on her interiors as she expands me out of my comfort zone at times (in a good way!).  I highly recommend Prideaux Design!

**Comment from Prideaux Design:**

> Thank you Carlie! You know how much I appreciate you and your work!

**★★★★★ — Sarah Simpson, March 2016**

> Kathryn is an exemplary designer & executioner .  She was hired to transform a small backyard space which also needed to accommodate a desert tortoise.  Her creation so far exceeded anything I could have created.  She raised the patio & angled it so I look out on the wash area..never aware of neighbors.  She created a very natural yet sophisticated scape .  The tortoise is also very content.  She created a mini paradise for this client.  Several visiting friends said they could move in & live on the patio alone.  Another unique creation was a metal 'catio' .  Cats have total access to the outside & yet completely protected.  The designs are unique, creative & functional.
> I would highly recommend Kathryn !  I cannot wait to come up with another project.  She has an exceptional aesthetic .
> First project was executed in 2014.  Had her back in 2015 to extend the project out to the wash area.
> She created a paradise for this very happy client

**Comment from Prideaux Design:**

> Thank you Sarah! I'm so blessed to have you as a client. I love every project we've tackled. AND now you have an award-winning space!

**★★★★★ — sarahimes, March 2016**

> Kathryn Prideaux helped us design our dream backyard from start to finish.  She was very detail oriented, always available, and worked great managing entire team of contractors, landscapers, pool company, etc.  She listened to our list of must haves and made everything flow together.  She helped us mix modern and rustic perfectly to create a space we use everyday and love to entertain in.  She is the best and we continue to use her for other projects inside our home.

**Comment from Prideaux Design:**

> Thank you so much Sara! These are beautiful photos!!! I'm looking forward to seeing the interior fireplace project come to life.

**★★★★★ — cutepugger, March 2016**

> Kathryn Prideaux is without a doubt one of the best designers in the business. Kathryn takes the time to get to know you and what your wants are for the project. She has a way through design and materials to create functional space that continues to evolve. Kathryn oversaw our entire project for us as we are long distance owners. Her knowledge of construction complements well her exceptional eye for design.  Kathryn is respectful of budgets, deadlines and the quality of materials used is exceptional. Kathryn kept us informed on progress of the project at all times. She sent photos to show us how things were transforming.  The first time I saw the project completed I couldn't believe how much it made my house a home. I have Kathryn to thank for that. She is fun to work with, and at the same time, a real professional. Since we own the nicest backyard in our neighborhood we have hired Kathryn for a second time to design a complete rework of our courtyard and to add much needed curb appeal! Can't wait!

**Comment from Prideaux Design:**

> Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! We definitely do make design work fun together! If there was a client review website - I'd give you ten stars! : )
