I have been privileged to benefit from Anderson Design Studio's work on restaurants, homes, offices, and hospitality suites. They have so much experience that they can listen to your needs and get straight to exciting solutions that are on target relative to both budget and beauty. **★★★★★ — Matthew Crawford, July 2016** > Kathy and her Design group is absolutely wonderful. They provided ID work for us on a VIP section and the artwork for the Wildhorse Saloon Renovation in Nashville, TN. Not only was the design beautifully put together but it consisted of materials that were readily available. Kathy and Katie instigated a flawless process throughout the project. I cannot wait to utilize them again! **★★★★★ — thesimans, March 2016** > We have hired Kathy Anderson Design for our third project. One tear-down, one from base/frame and now remodel. She is truly the best. She does exceptionally well with bridging between two people and their different needs...styles. Each time she has peppered our homes with our personalities. Character. Function. Aesthetics. We received several design awards and were featured in a couple magazines. Flattering! We highly recommend this team. **Comment from Anderson Design Studio:** > Thanks for the wonderful review, we love working with you and look forward to this new project! **★★★★★ — Shelley Thomas, Feb. 2016** > I've been working with Katie Stix at Anderson Design Studio for the past 6 months and she's been wonderful to work with! She has helped with a total re-design of basically my entire home, including the living room, dining room, office and master bedroom. She has helped bring warmth and personality to a newly remodeled house with beautiful wallcoverings and draperies, has a knack for problem-solving tough spaces and found furniture, fixtures, rugs, art and accessories that are unique and will turn my house into a beautiful home. Katie is great at listening and taking in all of your likes/dislikes. She works with you to infuse your personal style into the design plans and is quick to adapt and change direction when you do. Katie has been so easy and fun to work with. I can't recommend Katie and the Anderson Design Studio team enough! **Comment from Anderson Design Studio:** > Thank you Shelley, you have been an absolute pleasure to work with and we love expanding your awesome personality and sophistication into your home! **★★★★★ — sssmith210, Feb. 2016** > Kathy and Katie are so creative and have a fantastic eye for decorating.

We LOVE working with you and Dean and look forward to more projects! **★★★★★ — Mel Bow, Feb. 2016** > My husband and I own several downtown, historical, commercial buildings that we convert into lofts. We have worked with Anderson Design Studio over the past few years on all of our conversions/renovations. There design sense, professionalism and knowledge is impressive. They know how to cultivate what our ideas our and merge with their ideas to create magic. We are always under budget and meet our deadlines which is very important with construction. We have various styles depending on the project and they can do anything from contemporary, traditional with a twist, modern and tons more. They are very budget aware as certain projects we need to do on a shoestring and the level design quality never fails. We highly recommend Kathy Anderson, Katie Stix and the rest of the Anderson Design Studio team. **★★★★★ — sharyessig, April 2013** > I have worked with Anderson Design Studio for the past 4 years doing 3 separate renovations to my home. Each time I work with them I am SO pleased with the outcome that I know I will ask them to help with the next designs. > I started with a renovation of my kitchen/living room area in 2009, then did my master bathroom approximately 2 years later and my laundry room off the kitchen was completed this past winter. > Each job has included tearing out the spaces down to the studs, removal of debris, rewiring, re-plumbing, and re-flooring with some changes to the placements of the original walls. > We could not be happier with the outcomes and HIGHLY recommend Anderson Design for any job, large or small. **★★★★★ — Scott Siman, March 2013** > We hired Anderson Design on an international project - a remodel in Isla Mujeres, Mexico.
