Super creative, thoughtful and has impeccable taste (while totally being open to our quirky requests). Created the vision we didn't know we had! Katherine also importantly provides a number of options with a careful eye on budget. Highly recommend. **★★★★★ — D Scott Mercer, Feb. 2016** > Katherine designed my "man cave" which is my term for a combination media, bar and entertainment space of about 750 square feet. It was essentially new construction so it was a blank slate for Katherine to work with. Her design was unique, creative, comfortable (very important to me) and stunning. > > In addition, Katherine is a great listener and communicator. There were few surprises, "on the fly" decisions were anticipated and communicated to me and the project was completed on a timely basis. > > I highly recommend Katherine! **★★★★★ — rfmetaldesign, July 2015** > I greatly enjoyed working with Katherine as a designer and an artist. I built forged steel handrails and suspended bar shelves according to her design and found her to be thorough in her explanation and ideas, a clear communicator, and fully dedicated to the project and her client's needs. I look forward to more projects working with Katherine and her exciting and unique design style. **★★★★★ — User, July 2015** > When we remodeled 2 of our bathrooms Katherine designed the space, chose all of the materials, fixtures and colors. Her choices were perfect for our house. Her design skills are very strong. She was able to make drawings that the contractor used during construction. Three years later the bathrooms are as inviting as the day they were completed. Katherine was great to work with. She always presented several choices and explained the pros and cons of each. Her choices were always within our budget. > > Katherine also chose the colors for repainting the thrid bathroom, all 4 bedrooms and the hallway. She sense of color is excellent. > > I strongly recommend Katherine to anyone remodling or buidling from scratch. **★★★★ — dupicogan, June 2015** > Katherine is a pleasant young woman who is willing to drive the distance to find the most appropriate and comfortable furnishings. We were pleased with the outcome and the work moved along briskly. I only gave 4 stars because I never give 5 stars to anyone. It supports my commitment to life-long learning. ## Selected projects - [Redlands, CA Mancave](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/redlands-ca-mancave-pj-vj~1470040) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 24 - [Luxury Eclectic Bedroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/luxury-eclectic-bedroom-pj-vj~1161940) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 10 - [Eclectic Living Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/eclectic-living-room-pj-vj~1162837) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 10 - [Whimsical Powder Bath](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/whimsical-powder-bath-pj-vj~1162904) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Showcase House Concept](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/showcase-house-concept-pj-vj~1163050) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 [See all 5 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/katherine-tincher-design-pfvwus-pf~1384164122) ## Ideabooks - [Kitchens](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/55255337/list/kitchens) — 7 ideas - [Ross, CA](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/59921301/list/ross-ca) — 3 ideas - [Bohemian](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/50417979/list/bohemian) — 12 ideas - [Unique Bathrooms](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/50393631/list/unique-bathrooms) — 9 ideas - [She Sheds](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/54497778/list/she-sheds) — 31 ideas - [Mancaves](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/51506178/list/mancaves) — 31 ideas - [Kids](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/51506144/list/kids) — 7 ideas - [Unique Bedrooms](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/54790435/list/unique-bedrooms) — 1 idea - [Trailers and Tiny Houses](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/51506239/list/trailers-and-tiny-houses) — 10 ideas [See all 9 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/ktincher) ## Community Q&A **Q: Update on wet system wallpaper for shower** *(in Bathrooms)* As suggested, I reached out to the manufacturer in Italy. They weren't terribly helpful. Language issue I think, I may still get an Italian friend to call for me. Then reached out to an store in The Netherlands that sells the Wall and Deco product. They were more helpful, but since they deal mostly with residential sales they couldn't give me a hotel or fitness centre contact. They have clients who have had the product for 4 plus years with no issues at all. They have it set up in their showroom (shoppers can stay the night and use the shower, how cool is that?) and they have great confidence in the product. While there is some risk obviously I think I will take it and buy the product. Will get a quote Monday, including shipping. That may yet dissuade me. Now the fun part, which wallpaper? The woman at the shop in Holland told me than any of Wall and Decos contemporary collections can be used with the wet system. So lots of choice. Which of the ones below do you like best? For reference, our bathroom will have a walnut hanging vanity and I want to go with Silestone shower pan, wall and possibly floor (so all solid surface). The house is fairly modern. I'm a bit torn between whimsy and florals .... A: Hey Sochi, I'm trying to convince my contractor to use this in a shower design. How did you handle the waterproofing between the wallpaper and the shower pan? I've watched the Wall and Deco installation video and it looks like they just use a silicon-type seal over it? Seems like that will fail over time. How did you waterproof both there and between the silestone slabs? Thanks so much!! --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
