We have always appreciated her vision, helping us to maximize the use of our home for ourselves and our children. They have ably project-managed with contractors and suppliers, making the whole experience almost effortless on our part. We are extremely satisfied, and recommend Davin Interiors wholeheartedly. **★★★★★ — stephaniedoliveira, Jan. 2024** > Catherine and Kelsey from Davin Interiors created a beautiful and on point design for my great room and adjacent spaces. The end product is the envy of the neighborhood. Gorgeous, warm, and exactly what I dreamed for my home. They listened to my vision and with their expert design eye, delivered (literally and figuratively)! I highly recommend Davin (Catherine and Kelsey) for interior design services without hesitation and with great regard! **★★★★★ — Anna Finley, June 2020** > We recently finished an update to our first floor that was badly needed. Davin Interiors made the whole process an enjoyable, informative, and personalized experience. Our initial consultation was with Catharine Davin and Bella LaPaine at our home and we immediately felt at ease. We worked daily with Bella who made us feel confident in the decisions we were making. We requested Bella to draw up updates for the whole house and she was very accommodating when we opted to break the project into phases. She had lots of patience working with us to select the right paint colors and fixtures. The process was painless due to the open communication and thorough responsiveness of Davin Interiors. We love how the project turned out and would absolutely work with them again. **★★★★★ — Shelley Whitney, Dec. 2015** > Perfect in every way! Thoroughly professional approach to our project which included paint colors, granite, tile, wallpaper, lighting, and furniture on a much needed update. Would highly recommend! **Comment from Davin Interiors:** > Thank you Shelley. It's great to work (and play music!) with you and Tom. **★★★★★ — wmikulski, Sept. 2015** > Where do I begin? Cathy and her team ( for our project, Nick Bauer) were the inspiration, the energy, and the driving force behind our new home construction. Without her, I cannot even imagine trying to build our home. She and Nick became like family to us. She listens to you, and she works tirelessly to ensure your dream becomes a reality. She took on our project ( 10,000 sq ft home) and saw to every single detail. She planned for things I never even would have tought of. I am indebted to her forever. From the design of the home construction, to details such as door choice, tile, flooring, window treatments to the final product of room design and furniture selection-she delivers the entire package. She is a true professional, and I cannot give her enough praise. **★★★★★ — bridgetpope, Feb. 2015** > We have used Davin Interiors for a variety of design jobs in our home and we have been very pleased each time. We hired Cathy and her team to update our dark, outdated den and living room. They completely transformed both rooms by selecting paint colors, lighting, fabrics, and furniture that looks nice, compliments our existing style and is also standing up to the wear-and-tear of a household with small children. > > They are friendly, easy to work with and open-minded about design. They are also very organized and easy to reach. We will continue to use Davin Interiors in the future and highly recommend them. **★★★★★ — mda1340, Sept. 2013** > While building a house in 2010, I asked Cathy to help us coordinate our move. I wanted to use as much of our existing furniture as possible, but the new home was very different from the old one so we needed to also find new pieces. She was very meticulous in the planning and very responsive to our needs. Our home is beautiful and I am thankful that Cathy Davin helped make that possible. **★★★★★ — dellplain, Sept. 2013** > Cathy Davin's work brought my husband to tears! My husband and son traveled to Italy in 2012 for a high school graduation gift. My husbands dream was to see where his grandfather was born in Italy before coming to the USA. I had ordered the ship manifest and image from the Ellis Island website for his grandfather. I wanted to frame and hang it in our bedroom to be hung as a surprise when they arrived home. Our bedroom had never been touched in the 20 years we lived in this home. I decided I had to redo the room but I had to work quickly. I contacted Cathy and set up a date for her to see the room when my husband would not be here since he works from home. She was so awesome and just as excited about the surprise project as I was. I had no idea where to start. She listened to my minimal amount of ideas and took some pictures and measurements of the room. We met at her office for the next meeting and she had the most perfect samples and pictures of items for me to choose from. The material she picked for window treatments was the most gorgeous I'd ever seen with a European feel. She had all the items shipped to her to be stored until they could be delivered. Cathy delivered above and beyond for this project. She has the sweetest personality and is so professional. I could not have done it without her. The day arrived for them to come home. My son saw the room first. I tried to catch him so he didn't open the door all the way to ruin it for my husband. My son's jaw dropped. He looked at me teary-eyed and said "dads going to love it." My husband finally got there much later in the evening with myself, my parents and his mother looking on. He opened the door and dropped to his knees. The room looked so beautiful and the ship manifest and image that Cathy had beautifully framed was the perfect ending to my husbands dream trip. **★★★★★ — angelikacarola, Feb. 2013** > Working with Cathy Davin is a fun experience. She has lots of creativity and fresh ideas and always takes the homeowners needs into consideration. i.e. She listens. Her design flexibility is one of her greatest assets. She helped pull a look together using existing items that could not be changed and yet gave the room a whole new feel. > I would recommend her to anyone wanting a fresh new look in their homes. **★★★★★ — lizzyure, Feb. 2013** > I can't speak highly enough about Davin Interiors. They created an incredible living room in our home. They determined our personal style and then made a dream room. The furniture, fabrics, paint, and accessories all combined into something I could never have imagined. We simply love this room. Cathy was a pleasure to work with, her creativity was astounding, she was professional every step of the way, all of the delivery dates were met and she coordinated everything to be ready all together. ## Selected projects - [Stonegate](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/stonegate-pj-vj~7341987) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Elm Road](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/elm-road-pj-vj~7348153) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [Canonsburg](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/canonsburg-pj-vj~7339597) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [McMurray](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mcmurray-pj-vj~7339526) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Academy Avenue](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/academy-avenue-pj-vj~7339514) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Thomas Road](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/thomas-road-pj-vj~7338387) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 9 [See all 6 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/davin-interiors-pfvwus-pf~1291885961) ## Ideabooks - [What’s Trending for 2016?](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/60130218/list/what-s-trending-for-2016) — 6 ideas - [Holiday Colors Inspire Interior Design Ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/58161452/list/holiday-colors-inspire-interior-design-ideas) — 5 ideas - [Creating a Cozy Home for the Holidays](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/56882515/list/creating-a-cozy-home-for-the-holidays) — 2 ideas - [Celebrating Benjamin Moore's 2016 Color of the Year, Simply White](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/55679601/list/celebrating-benjamin-moore-s-2016-color-of-the-year-simply-white) — 5 ideas - [Organization](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/54302348/list/organization) — 1 idea - [Luxury Master Bath](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/4991786/list/luxury-master-bath) — 14 ideas - [Boys Bath](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/44948386/list/boys-bath) — 8 ideas - [3-Side Fireplace](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/44873556/list/3-side-fireplace) — 11 ideas - [Fresh Color Schemes](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/3399105/list/fresh-color-schemes) — 5 ideas - [Bedroom Inspiration](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/4992123/list/bedroom-inspiration) — 3 ideas - [Home Office](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/4991822/list/home-office) — 8 ideas - [Teresa](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/26352520/list/teresa) — 3 ideas - [Dormer Window](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/25404435/list/dormer-window) — 5 ideas - [Two Story Family Room](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/25115428/list/two-story-family-room) — 4 ideas - [Ranch Project](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/22098772/list/ranch-project) — 5 ideas - [Swags in bay](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/8294319/list/swags-in-bay) — 2 ideas - [Stair - stained riser](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/6072330/list/stair-stained-riser) — 3 ideas - [Fireplace Styles](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/5618662/list/fireplace-styles) — 12 ideas - [kitchen backslashes](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/5446571/list/kitchen-backslashes) — 9 ideas - [Wine Room/Bar](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/5163638/list/wine-room-bar) — 1 idea [See all 28 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/davininteriors) ## Community Q&A **Q: Bar Counter Height...Is It Old Fashioned?!?** *(in Polls)* We are still in the middle of our kitchen remodel, with our "temporary" furniture-grade plywood countertops and we are having a hard time making decision number 6,492, which happens to involve the design of the bar for our peninsula. We are trying to decide if we want to have a raised bar, with taller stools, or if the bar should be the same level as the countertop, with shorter stools. Many of the images that inspire me do not have a raised bar, but I really like hiding a direct view of the sink (which is located on the same workstation as the bar) from my guests. I tried to pick sample photos which have materials similar to our very eclectic mix of contemporary ebony cabinets, industrial hardware and scraped wood floors. Am I being old fashioned? What do you think? A: Based on your thoughts and the photos you included, I'd go with the counter height and lower stools - I use them often and don't think it's old-fashioned, it's more of what your particular situation calls for. Good luck! **Q: twin beds or queen in second guest bedroom** *(in Design Dilemma)* Soon to move into our retirement home away from all the family and friends. We have a extremely comfortable futon (queen) in one guest room and debating on whether to get another queen bed or twin beds for 2nd guest room. A: Jo - Would go with the twin beds as well, lots of flexibility for grandkids, girlfriends, etc. **Q: Advice on window treatments that won't hide the windows!** *(in Design Dilemma)* We just built a new Craftsman style house (will close on it in four days), and our thoughts have turned to window treatments. Our windows are "valance" style (see photo), and we love the look of them and the wonderful light they let in. But the house is in town (so there are privacy issues), and though they are energy-efficient windows that supposedly block 90-something % of UV rays, we still want to filter hot sunlight, protect our hardwood floors, quilts, etc, and help provide additional insulation against our cold winters. I've been looking at window treatments that provide at least some of those benefits without hiding the windows when not deployed, and am thinking that roller shades, bottom-up blinds and/or lightweight drapes are my best bets. Any thoughts, experience, knowledge or opinions on this subject are welcome! :-) A: Love the idea of operable roman shades mounted at the ceiling - if you select a woven fabric that has just a bit of openness to it, you can get away without lining (with the windows you selected) for sun and privacy issues as they are usually more attractive when not lined. **Q: What color should I paint the porch bench?** *(in Design Dilemma)* I want to paint the bench on my side porch. The house is white with black shutters and red doors. Repainting doors a brighter red-BM Heritage Red. What color should I paint the bench? I was thinking a yellow. A: I can see a pretty shade of yellow, medium blues or black. Love the idea of a few colorful toss pillows (maybe made of sunbrella fabric?) on the bench as well as a couple of pots of flowers. Good luck! **Q: what would you add** *(in Design Dilemma)* what kind of accessories would you add to this set http://www.modernfurniturewarehouse.com/modern-white-bonded-leather-sectional-sofa-2.html A: Love the idea of colorful accent pillows and throw. You could also soften it with a large area rug which could add color and texture. How about an ottoman and side tables? Glass and metal combination might be nice with the modern lines of the sofa. Maybe a large chrome arched floor lamp coming from behind the corner piece and extending into the open center area? **Q: in which room would you put this set** *(in Design Dilemma)* in which room would you put this sofa set A: First off, love the "Davide" on the back wall - my favorite piece of art on the planet! You're going to need a room with some size/scale for this furniture - how about man-cave size game room or home theater room? Possibly with an oversize area rug and a low coffee table? --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-09-07.*
