One of which was featured on the cover of House Beautiful. We operate out of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and Northeast Wisconsin; so all our projects together have been done long-distance. > > We go to the job site and take photographs, complete detailed measurements, and topographical surveys if site work is required, we send them to Kathryn and her team and she sends back finished plans, which we then execute. Its takes experience on both our parts to make a plan seamless even when working a seven hour plane-trip away. Kathryn and her team are great at keeping everyone (both homeowners and contractors) up-to-date and in the loop. > > Kathryn has an amazing talent for design detail. We've seen her professionalism, attention to detail, and vision for a space bring homes to their full potential. We've worked with Kathryn enough to trust her instincts and we look forward to the next inspiration she will bring to the project. Kathryn's level of detail flawlessly blends art and design and function together making these projects simple and timeless yet elegant. > > I love, love, love working with Kathryn knowing the project is going to be spectacular and the owners will be thrilled. **Comment from Kathryn Scott:** > Thank you for your glorious support. Every project has been so much fun! It is always a pleasure working with you as well, and I look forward to the next one! > > By the way, I can't wait to see the images of the cottage you posted once all the furniture and window treatments have arrived. So far, so good! **★★★★★ — tambi34, March 2016** > Kathryn provided a level of design and standard of care for our project that is rare and unexpected. She really helped us visualize the project and provided complete clarity for all of the many moving parts and possibilities. This allowed us to make clear and concise decisions regarding the renovation. Her design of the project was very thoughtful and took into account the specific installation details as well as the overall project concept that she created. Her ability to attain a certain elegance and style provided a true departure from the typical renovation project. **Comment from Kathryn Scott:** > Thank you so much Tambi! You are one of my very favorite people to work with for the exact same reasons! **★★★★★ — leslie\_adams60, March 2016** > Kathryn Scott is one of the most talented designers I have ever met. She is way ahead of her time in terms of design, materials and execution. Her architectural detail is so exceptional (yes exceptional) that I just recommended her to one of my closest friends. It doesn't matter that she is out of state (they are in Boca Raton, Florida and she is in New York) - she is that good! > > Anyone who is lucky enough to work with Kathryn and her team will be thrilled with the outcome for years to come. My apartment was renovated 15 years ago and it looks like it was done yesterday. > > Talent like Kathryn's is one in a million. **Comment from Kathryn Scott:** > Thank you for your kind words, Leslie. I appreciate your continuing support and enthusiasm! **★★★★★ — sartsis, March 2016** > I purchased an apartment in NYC and needed to find the right person to do The Apartment Design, Selection of Furniture including Architectural Salvage Pieces so my apartment would feel more authentic to the building. I choose Kathryn Scott Design as I looked at her works and realized that she would bring a level of professionalism and an eye for detail that others did not have. Kathryn did an amazing job and my home came out more beautiful than I could even have imagined. I really enjoy showing people the finished work, all the custom features and hand picked finishes. > > When I look up Interior Design in the dictionary, I see Kathryn's photo.

I can't think of anyone I would rather work together with than you. **★★★★★ — Russ Holland, Nov. 2013** > Kathryn Scott is simply phenomenal! From her passion to her creativity, Kathryn is second to none. Our first meeting was at her jaw-dropping studio. I was blown away by her warmth, professionalism, and ability to understand what I was looking for. In addition, her studio was a perfect showcasing of her talents. I never needed her to assure me that she knew what she was doing, her work spoke for itself. I reached out to Kathryn because I was working with small space that I needed to serve several purposes (A studio, bedroom, office, and entertainment). Kathryn delivered 100%. She was reliable, responsive, creative, and an absolute pleasure to work with. Kathryn's eye for interior design is remarkable. If you're looking for someone who is thorough, creative, warm, and dedicated. Look no more, contact Kathryn Scott Design Studio. **Comment from Kathryn Scott:** > You are so sweet, thank you for your kind words! **★★★★★ — raquelaini, Nov. 2013** > Working with Kathryn Scott and her team on my house was a pleasure.

Very seldom does a designer have to opportunity to work with people as warm and caring as you and on a project as rewarding. Thank you for your years of support. **★★★★★ — gmgunn, Sept. 2013** > Kathryn and her team were incredibly professional and fun to work with. But the real joy is in the home she designs for you. I'll just share a note I wrote to her after actually living in the new space (a Brooklyn brownstone): > > "Kathryn--After 3 months living here, I just wanted to tell you that being in > this house is like a dream. I never knew I could enjoy a physical > space so much, and that a house itself could make me so happy. > > I wake up rested from blissful sleep in a perfect bed, and open my > eyes to warm light and gentle colors. I cross into a sunny, serene > bathroom to brush my teeth, and then walk downstairs to a kitchen that > reminds me of the sea. I make coffee for Lisette and we talk work and > world; she heads out and I roll out to the deck to read my paper > surrounded by trees, plants, and the muted sounds of city life. > > Then I go down to a rustic office, whose warm woodiness is an > anchoring counterpoint to my abstract work. I take meetings with > talented entrepreneurs at the intimate table in my rich and airy > parlor; the grandeur and comfort of the room just seems to make people > think better and aspire to better ideas. > > We eat dinner as a family back in the kitchen, our son and nephew > crawl all over us and our friends at the big table while we break > bread and drink wine. I take the kids to play video games in the den, > where my son prances around in his superhero outfits and bounces on > the couch and ball chairs. > > We retire once again to the bedroom; the worries of the day dissolve > under the glow of the birdcage lamp. Lights go out, and the moonlight > glow from the bathroom serves as our night light while we drift off to > sleep. > > This place is magical." **Comment from Kathryn Scott:** > It was magical working with you. Thank you for your kindness and appreciation. It means the world to me. ## Selected projects - [Parisian townhouse in New York](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/parisian-townhouse-in-new-york-pj-vj~48426) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 33 - Description: This project included the full house design, from architectural to custom furnishings. - [Hudson River Valley Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hudson-river-valley-residence-pj-vj~183748) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 29 - [Hillsboro Beach Oceanside Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hillsboro-beach-oceanside-residence-pj-vj~323634) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 23 - [Upstate New York Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/upstate-new-york-residence-pj-vj~321597) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 12 - [Historic Brooklyn Townhouse](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/historic-brooklyn-townhouse-pj-vj~277287) - Location: Brooklyn, NY - Photos: 19 - [Texas Ranch](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/texas-ranch-pj-vj~70094) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 [See all 6 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/kathryn-scott-pfvwus-pf~1954610613) ## Ideabooks - [Kitchens](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/18622574/list/kitchens) — 31 ideas - [bathrooms](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/18257968/list/bathrooms) — 36 ideas - [Storage](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/171822303/list/storage) — 7 ideas - [architecture](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/3206721/list/architecture) — 9 ideas - [Exterior spaces](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/138527247/list/exterior-spaces) — 2 ideas - [living spaces](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/18461467/list/living-spaces) — 9 ideas - [laundry](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/23764980/list/laundry) — 2 ideas - [furniture](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/14209855/list/furniture) — 4 ideas - [accessories](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/45233661/list/accessories) — 1 idea - [dinnerware & accessories](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/32723540/list/dinnerware-accessories) — 6 ideas - [kids rooms](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/3206740/list/kids-rooms) — 13 ideas - [finishes](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/20156914/list/finishes) — 3 ideas - [bedrooms](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/18257634/list/bedrooms) — 8 ideas - [stairs](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/44166149/list/stairs) — 1 idea - [work spaces](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/29947861/list/work-spaces) — 1 idea - [organizing ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/2375011/list/organizing-ideas) — 28 ideas - [garden work room](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/26559169/list/garden-work-room) — 1 idea - [window treatments](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/26245827/list/window-treatments) — 2 ideas - [dining spaces](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/18257811/list/dining-spaces) — 3 ideas - [appliances](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/23593531/list/appliances) — 1 idea [See all 25 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/ancientjade) ## Community Q&A **Q: Who makes the box within a box chandelier?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Thank you **Q: Are the Windows painted cream?** *(in Photo Questions)* Does it matter if your trim is a cream color but your windows are white? I can't imagine painting vinyl Windows but all pics on here appear to be the same color as trim. A: It is definitely a good idea to keep the windows and casings the same color. It will make a difference in the finished appearance. I have no experience painting vinyl windows, but it doesn't sound like a good idea. You would have to confirm this with the window fabricator before trying it. The french doors, window casing, all trim, wainscot and even the ceiling in this photo are Benjamin Moore Dove White. It is a good staple... soft and light. **Q: Chairs** *(in Photo Questions)* Where can the chairs be obtained? A: They are called the Ennis Chairs **Q: Paint Colors.** *(in Photo Questions)* Can you please tell me the wall colors, especially the "white" walls? Thank you in advance. I love this room, so tasteful and unique! A: Hi there, thanks so much! The white is Benjamin Moore Vanille Milkshake, and the blue is Benjamin Moore \#1584 with a BM Dove White Wash. **Q: is this a custom made door?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Yes, I modeled it after a traditional French paneled door design **Q: Where can I purchase the armoire?** *(in Photo Questions)* Thank u A: This is an antique Louis Philippe French armoire. I forget now where i got it, as it has been many years. You can probably search online for one or, if you need our professional help, we are happy to accomodate. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-09-18.*
