Katerina was extraordinary in understanding our style, which she fairly describes as having a little bit of drama. She put together several exceptional rooms in a 1990s home with class and flair. > > On this project, Katerina renovated all three bathrooms in the home, replaced a water damaged wood floor with beautiful stone, and designed a solution to turn bland sheetrock rooms into warm and inviting spaces. > > Some of the techniques she employed include eliminating bland recessed ceiling with beautiful hanging fixtures and chandeliers. Subtle Venetian plaster wall finishes, a custom walnut wood wall where she incorporated lighting, a large screen television, and fireplace. > > > The results were so well done that we asked Katerina to help us with our next home, a very different style and project. Katerina has our highest recommendation and regard. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, Adam. That house tuned out gorgeously. Thank you for the opportunity to work side by side with you, and a huge thank you for keeping me busy :)). ### All 63 reviews **★★★★★ — Artem Bolshakov, March 2026** > Katerina is the best! She helped with everything, from normal things like color selection and planning layout, to creative solutions like making a closet that looks like a suitcase, to managing the various contractors to make sure that the job got done well and on time. I couldn't recommend her more highly! **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, Artem. I truly appreciate this kind review. I hope we return soon to improve the remaining rooms. :) **★★★★★ — TK, Oct. 2025** > I had a great experience working with KB Design. My home has some complicated architectural details that made choosing paint colors a real challenge, but she made the process so easy and enjoyable. She has a fantastic eye for color and flow — the palette she helped me select completely transformed the space. I couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend KB Design to anyone looking for expert, personalized design guidance! **★★★★★ — Emerald Estock, Oct. 2025** > Katerina was a pleasure to work with. The final result far exceeded my expectations. She is amazing at maximizing the existing space and elevating it to a higher level. We started with a cozy 80’s style townhouse in Sarasota and Katerina transformed it into an elegant retreat. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, Emerald! We achieved remarkable results in your residence. I love working with both of you :). **★★★★★ — Nancy S., Dec. 2024** > We are thankful for Katerina's design expertise and patience. She will go out of her way to ensure the project is moving forward. She can speak with strong-headed contractors and opinionated sale's. Without her, we'd be lost in the sea of opinions and suggestions. She helped us maintain the desired direction for us and our home. Very happy with the results. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, thank you, Nancy. I loved creating the home with you. **★★★★★ — Gregory, Nov. 2024** > I had the pleasure of working with Katerina on several projects. Her expertise in design and creative vision deserve the highest praise. Throughout the entire project, she maintained open and clear communication. Katerina will help make your home beautiful and cozy. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, Gregory. It is a true pleasure to work with professionals like yourself, you are a true artist in tile installation. **★★★★★ — Nancy S., Nov. 2024** > Katerina was recommended to us by a neighbour who works with her, he said she is logical and easy to work with. He was absolutly right. > Katerina spent time researching what each of us wanted to achieve. She listens well. After she solved the puzzle of what we and our house wanted her decisions and recommendations were clearcut and easy to agree. > House turned out gorgeous, we are very hapy with the results and process. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, thank you, thank you! I enjoyed our collaboration. I am very happy that you love the results. **★★★★★ — Prabhu, Dec. 2023** > Our experience with Katerina (KBDesign +) has been excellent. Right from our introductory call, and meeting Katerina was clear about her process and detail oriented. Looking back, she helped us with one of the biggest projects we had taken and the design/guidance throughout has been very helpful. We had a unique/custom built house, and to design our kitchen and bathroom, she blended the style and design to what our needs were. She was also helpful with going through multiple iterations to finalize the layout/plans, and also answer any questions with the construction, finishing of the project. We definitely recommend Katerina/KB Design+ to our friends and family that are looking for professional help with their house. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you! Your remodel was very challenging which made an outcome even more satisfying. I am positive that the home will successfully serve your family through the years. **★★★★★ — Julia Kann, Nov. 2023** > KB Design was the best company that we had work with during remodel of our house. Ekaterina is professional, very knowledgeable, experienced and very attentive to details. She was on top of the project- always promptly responding to emails, always double checking everything. Ekaterina helped us to creat design for a kitchen, two bathrooms and a laundry. And we are so happy that we have found her, because the amount of work and little details it takes to creat such a project is massive. > We would recommend KB Design services to anyone who is looking for a true professional and experienced designer. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, Julia! I loved working with you, thank you for such a great experience, I hope the house will serve you exceptionally. **★★★★★ — Heron & Crow Gardens, Nov. 2023** > We loved working with Katerina! She listened, helped us guide us through the design process, and we ended up with the kitchen of our dreams! We could not be happier! **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, Caitlin! I loved working with you. I am jealous of that view of yours, still :) I am so glad that we were able to "free" the view. > Thank you again for the opportunity. > Katerina. **★★★★★ — O'Connor Building Company LLC, Nov. 2023** > Ekaterina's product knowledge, perspective and vision provides clients with a unique and beautiful aesthetic that parallels directly with the customers vision. Her recent design project delivered above expectations and created an oasis specifically suited for the environment. She was extremely detailed in all aspects of the project, the smallest details matter. Great work and design perspective. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Oh my, thank you so much for the kind review. I thoroughly enjoyed our collaboration, your team was a pleasure to work with, thank you. I am looking forward to the future projects together. **★★★★★ — Roma Patseshchanka, Oct. 2023** > I had the pleasure of collaborating with the designer Ekaterina on several tile installation projects. Her professionalism and creative approach truly impressed me. Designer Ekaterina demonstrated a high level of expertise in material selection, color choices, and structure, which ultimately led to outstanding results. I am satisfied with the collaboration process and highly recommend KB design+ to anyone seeking a professional in the world of interior design. **★★★★★ — Shashank S, July 2022** > Katerina helped me design the home interior that I bought recently, and I'm very happy with the output of our collaboration. She set up clear expectations and is transparent on pricing, thorough on designs, and patient in helping me analyze and decide on various possibilities. While she considered and incorporated many of my requests, I'm also thankful that she guided and rejected some of my crazy ideas that would not fit my place. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, Shashank. I loved working with you on your home preparing it to it's new purpose to serve a family :). **★★★★★ — Natasha Pinkina, June 2022** > I had my kids bathrooms redone with KB Design. Everything came out better than I expected. Bathroom looks great. > It was my first construction project and I had numerous questions. To my satisfaction all of them were answered. We had everything planed and ordered before we started the construction phase. All of the plans were meticulously done, and even my construction guys were pleased with the design and all the explanations KB Design provided on every small detail. > I was surprised how many practical insights come along the process. I had some ideas, KB Design made them even better, and always listened with attention. And when I had no clue whatsoever, I was guided step by step until we reached desired results. > I plan to use KB Design for my nest project. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, thank you, Nataliya. The room did turn out into a gorgeous and comfortable space. Thanks again for the provided opportunity. **★★★★★ — Becky, Dec. 2021** > Working with Katerina of KB Design was a pleasure and the finished project truly a collaborate effort. Katerina kept me informed of our progress in the design process and when and what to expect next. She listened to and remembered my ideas and requests and provided thorough explanations of her design proposals. Katerina definitely stays up to date on the design world, which was especially important in this time of COVID-19 supply chain disruptions. Thanks to Katerina’s expertise, I now have a home I can enjoy for many years to come. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, Becky. It was a pleasure to work with you :). **★★★★★ — Alex, Dec. 2021** > Katerina Was wonderful from beginning to end. She listened to my ideas and made recommendations that really turned out fantastic. I highly recommend her services. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, Alex. I would love to see how your home turned out. Thank you so much for the kind review. :) **★★★★★ — Artem Bolgar, Sept. 2021** > We've done kitchen remodeling with KB Design LLC, with Ekaterina Bolshakova. The result was gorgeous new kitchen which we love! Always responsive, client oriented, great communication with both - us and contractors. Highly recommend! **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, thank you, Artem. I am so proud of how your home turned out with the remodel. Very grateful for the opportunity. **★★★★★ — karin\_fusetti, Jan. 2021** > Katerina at KB Design LLC was amazing to work with! My husband I went into the idea of a remodel cold – knowing only that we wanted to transform our dark dated kitchen into something beautiful bright and functional. Katerina helped us achieve that goal and more. Katerina’s design methods were a perfect match for us as we are both busy professionals and did not have much time to spare. She spent the necessary up-front time with us to understand our likes and dislikes and used this information to develop a new floor plan, kitchen cabinet layout including center island and new exterior windows that made our kitchen more functional and added the natural light we craved. She also designed a beautiful new fireplace with built in cabinets for the adjacent family room. Katerina gave us thoughtful recommendations and steered us in the right direction when it came to design decisions. She helped us select materials --including choosing cabinet styles, countertops, flooring, appliances, lighting fixtures, paint colors etc. Katerina provided us with invaluable insights and design expertise that has created a home with the spaces that we love to be in. We are both so happy with the results!! **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you Karin so much. The transformation of the house was beautiful, I truly appreciate the opportunity to work with you designing your home. > Katerina. **★★★★★ — A & R Construction, Jan. 2021** > We are a general contractor who specializes in kitchen and bathroom remodels. We have over 15 years of experience in the field. During this time, we’ve had the pleasure of working with KB Design LLC on multiple projects. They are professional, detail oriented and make some amazing designs. Their designs skills are precise along with their construction details, notes and specifications which makes it easy to follow during the construction phase. We highly recommend KB Design LLC. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you. I love working with your company, hope to install many more beautiful and highly functional rooms with you. > Katerina. **★★★★★ — Mikhail Galeev, Dec. 2020** > Just want to express my great satisfaction with Katerina’s design – I never imagined that my place could be transformed in such wonderful way by her wisdom (and some persuasion )! > I bought a house which used to be a rental property, so everything, like floor, wall etc. just was very basic and unexpressive at best. I wanted to make this place my new home with some character and charm so I asked Katerina to help. She helped me to define a few main ideas what I wanted to see in my home and (the most important part) to refine my vision. She selected color’s trends for each room and selected complimentary window treatments. In addition she recommended furniture selection for each room to bring together all ideas I wanted to see in my house. > Separately I would like to mentioned how I was genuinely amazed how window treatment she selected changed house's look and overall filing within. I look forward to our next project with bathroom remodeling ! **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you Mikhail, I thoroughly enjoyed working with you on the reimagining your home > and brining the residence to the next level. I am truly grateful for the opportunity. **★★★★★ — Mike Treit, Dec. 2020** > House remodels do not always go to plan and mine was an odyssey filled with trials (an unresponsive architect) and tribulations (delayed permits, issues with the health department) but the one constant bright light guiding the project to ultimate success, and helping me keep my sanity, was Katerina, of KB Design. > > Working with Katerina was a joy. She is a great listener and very attentive to what you want out of a project. Starting with an initial design consultation and some ‘homework’ for me to go through and flag photos of different design styles (what I liked, what I did not), Katerina was able to get an idea of my personal aesthetic tastes and start to put together a vision for what my house could become. She then guided the process from start to finish, working very closely with my chosen contractor to get the details just right, and working with me constantly to refine design choices, pick out furniture and appliances, finishes and colors, and ensure that her vision for me and what I wanted in the end were converging to a great outcome. > > I could not be happier with the end result. > > For anyone looking for a designer to help with a remodel project, I highly recommend going through the initial design consultation at KB Design and seeing for yourself what Katerina brings to the table. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, Mike for your kind words. The project was a journey, and the results are totally worth it. Loved working with you. **★★★★★ — Shepel Homes - Kitchen and Bath, Dec. 2020** > Katerina was a pleasure to work with. As a project manager, it's always important for me that the designer is involved in the project during the construction process, and Katerina absolutely delivers on that. Some highlights: Design, layouts are delivered to me with the finest detail, which makes installation run smooth. Communication; even when issues arise, as they always do during construction, Katerina is always available by phone to iron out any issue during the project's execution. > > I am excited to work on our next project and would not hesitate to recommend Katerina as a design professional. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, I appreciated the opportunity to work with such passionate and professional team as your company as well. The process was enjoyable. **★★★★★ — Xiu Cai, July 2020** > We hired Katerina to redesign our master bath/closet, kitchen and utility room. We can't thank her enough for the great job she has done-she is very talented, smart and has a keen eye for details. Katerina is highly recommended since we had a great experience working with her. We plan to call on her again for future projects. **★★★★★ — Polly Dunn, Feb. 2020** > We recently moved into a 20 year-old condo and I wanted a knowledgeable designer to update the kitchen, as well as the dining and great room areas. I found Katerina (KB Design) online and I'm so happy I did. Katerina changed the layout of the kitchen and It's greatly improved. We started with me choosing the finish of the cabinets Katerina recommended and then she took me to commercial sites to choose the countertop, backsplash, flooring, carpeting, lighting and paint. Everything now blends together beautifully. She paid particular attention to every detail during construction and importantly, she also noticed a building design flaw in the dining area concerning the structural beams. Katerina corrected it by adding more beams, and it also now looks amazing. I highly recommend Katerina. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you so much Polly, it was a pleasure, and the result is totally reflective of the amazing personalities of the owners! **★★★★★ — Adam Hall, Sept. 2019** > Katerina is awesome to work with, she was very suggestive in ideas and worked with our own desires to come up with an amazing bathroom design. It is beautiful! **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you Adam, I really enjoyed this little endeavor with big impact. Looking forward to helping you with your next home improvement project. **★★★★★ — tanbuddu, Sept. 2019** > Very reliable and amazing at her work. > Got my living room done and it made a big difference. We love it now more than before. > I would hire her for any future projects in a heart beat. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you so much! I truly appreciate your kind words, Living room turned out amazing, looking forward to helping you with the upper floor design. **★★★★★ — Nancy Hutchison, May 2019** > I hired Katerina after interviewing several designers. Right away, I felt it was a good fit. She's a wonderful listener and was focused on my personality and likes. Her guidance during my entire remodel was such a comfort as I made my way through the process. She has a wealth of knowledge and expertise in all areas of design. The end result was a beautiful remodel of my kitchen, laundry room and upgrade in several rooms of my home. I highly recommend her. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, thank you! > It was wonderful working with you, Nancy. Thank you for a beautiful review!!! **★★★★★ — Brad Smith, Jan. 2019** > Hired Katerina for our long overdue kitchen remodel. We were very happy with the process and with the end results. She is a true professional, and able to envision and communicate complex design details not only to us but to a contractor as well. > Brad and Mary **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you so much, Brad and Mary loved working on your project! Enjoy the new space. **★★★★★ — meredith mancuso, July 2018** > Katerina helped us with a large project remodeling most of our home including the kitchen, family room, master bath and closet, and general updates and painting throughout the home. She also helped with some furniture and curtain selection/design. We are so proud and excited by how it turned out. > > Katerina is clearly very experienced and is up on the latest trends. She spent extensive time with us designing, listening, and answering emails. She was a strong presence throughout the many months of our project. > > Katerina definitely goes the extra mile to make sure you are happy with the selections. I believe she can really help any client come up with their own style. We went for a more transitional style blending traditional and modern elements. She helped us tremendously with editing our style to create the right blend. I was really picky about selecting some of my own elements (like the countertop) and she was great about helping with the integration of these items. > > She definitely will steer you towards top quality items. Things add up fast and we chose to go over budget because we have expensive taste, but Katerina is very mindful of budgeting and provided reminders and helped us to make compromises along the way. > > As with all large projects, there were mistakes, delays, challenges and difficulties. Our project had more than most. Katerina was always very upfront, responsible, honest, and fair during these times - which we were really grateful for. Nobody wants to be stressed and simultaneously in an argument, I was always impressed with Katerina's integrity. We will continue to work with her as we create the finishing touches on our home. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Oh. Thank you. Such a beautiful review. It was a huge undertaking. thank you for entrusting your hopes for a beautiful family home with me. Enjoying working with you. Sincerely. Katerina. **★★★★ — Christi Osburn, Jan. 2018** > Katrina came out to our house and provided a great consultation for a project to transform our daughter's bedroom from youth to adult. She asked insightful questions that really allowed her to get to know what my daughter needed, liked, and her style. We appreciated the idea that she wanted it to be functional and make her feel beautiful to be in. Katrina seems to balance practical and creativity while keeping the budget in mind. We look forward to working with her in the future. **★★★★★ — Anne Bouckeno, Dec. 2017** > Katerina completely redesigned our whole kitchen from the studs up. It's amazing how different the room is, and how it flows beautifully into the dining and living room. The whole house is different now. My family loves hanging out in the great room. It really feels like our home now, instead of just a place we could afford. > > I'm so thankful for Katerina's guidance along the way. I could have spend hours agonizing over the thousands of choices out there, but instead after a few conversations with her I got the design of my dreams. I love all of the design decisions. It's not something I'm gifted with, but Katerina is. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you Anne, so glad we succeeded in creation of the HOME for you and your wonderful family. It is a very important compliment. Thank you. **★★★★★ — Karen Parker, Dec. 2017** > Katerina is a contemporary artist with innumerable skills. Her artistic precision, her innovative design solutions, her tasteful insights, and her absolute dedication to understanding her clients' dynamic needs made the entire process of designing my office a memorable, joyful and educative experience. Her technical prowess in space utilization created the foundation upon which elaborate layers of design could merge in order to cultivate crisp and refreshing beauty in literally every corner of an aesthetically-challenged medical suite. I initially struggled with giving creative license to her, but as I watched her ideas come to life and witnessed the value of her every recommendation, I was able to let go of my own ideas and benefit from hers. When new design projects emerged, I realized I was able to place my trust in her - carte blanche - and didnt have to struggle within myself to refine her recommendations... :) She honored my budget, and even hand-painted an entire room with specialty brushwork using metallic paint to complete a vision for one room (after a professional painter wanted 5K for the same work which would have made that design an impossibility). The spirit with which she offered my company her gifts was elegant and sincere, qualities which pervade into the designs she installs. Highest recommendation! **Comment from KB Design +:** > Wow, thank you Karen. Thank you, your review has touched me on so many levels. Beautiful words, you are so kind (and a best doctor in the universe too). Looking forward to help you in your further design endeavors. **★★★★★ — Tim Barton, Dec. 2017** > I loved working with Katerina. > She listened well and was spot on with her > solutions while designing our master suite. > > Will request her services, again, to continue with other areas > of our house. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you Tim. Will love to continue to work with you and your family. **★★★★★ — Alexander, Nov. 2017** > My wife and I were planning remodeling, and we had so many conflicting ideas so we needed someone with a good taste and understanding to advise us on possible alternatives. Ekaterina was very attentive, understood our constraints and provided us with very valuable recommendations. Her advice is greatly appreciated! **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, so much! I hope your remodel will be a success! **★★★★★ — Cam Stefanic, Nov. 2017** > I found Katerina to be one of the most competent, professional, and helpful people I've had the pleasure of working with. From the first day of the project she was proactive and would check in constantly to see how construction was going. If there were any issues during construction, she was quick with an answer or a workaround and everything turned out great. She was very aware of our budget and also guided us through ways to save and splurge smartly. I have/would again recommend her to anyone looking for a great designer with a wonderful eye for color and spacing. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Oh my, thank you so much! I enjoyed working with you tremendously. Thank you so much for the opportunity. **★★★★★ — Eric Gemelli, Dec. 2016** > This is my second project with Katerina - this time working several states away. She's pleasant, professional, responsive to requests and questions, has a great eye, precise in her drawings and she has affordable resources and service providers. I appreciate she listens to my vision for the project and priorities. To me, that creates a great value. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you Eric, I've enjoyed our video conversations a lot this year, it's always a pleasure to help my clients on their new endeavors. **★★★★★ — Alla Puchalsky, Dec. 2016** > I've worked with Katerina for many years and on many projects. When her company was Colorado based we were the ones who built her designs for her customers. It was a long and happy collaboration. She is very professional, and she cares. She cares for the client, she follows the project through the finish. And she makes sure that her customers received a fair price. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you Alla and Vasily, It was a happy collaboration, thank you so much for your wonderful craftsmanship. **★★★★★ — User, April 2016** > I had such a positive and fun experience working with Katerina. Her knowledge of kitchen design and her product is extensive, useful and meaningful. We worked on a kitchen remodel together and her creative design brought flow and functionality to the new kitchen layout creating a warm and welcoming new space. Katerina's ability to problem solve with creative solutions brought a high level of design to a project that needed out of the box thinking. Everyone involved with the remodel was very happy. I highly recommend Katerina to anyone looking for a designer who listens to your needs and puts your design first. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you Laurel, the pleasure was mine. You are great partner to work with. **★★★★★ — tammyflo, March 2016** > Last year we had a dilemma. Our kitchen needed an upgrade a big one. We wanted to do a kitchen remodel for a long time but were stuck trying to figure out how to approach the project. We were unsure what parts of the first floor will be affected and where to begin. The friend of ours recommended Katerina, and we scheduled a meeting. Best move ever! She is a communication wisard. I mean there is an accent, but she is so good on working with priorities, and explaining why we shall make, or not to make, certain steps or purchases. Our kitchen turned out fantastic, everything we wanted and more. She made every inch work for us. I have to confess that we priced her design against number of cabinet lines, and her cabinets priced exceptionally well. We ended up purchasing our cabinets from her as well. Will hire again. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you so much, we had some fun. Decisions, decisions..... me concurred > them all :) **★★★★★ — jimmartin40, March 2016** > We interviewed several Interior Designers for our job. We were absolutely delighted that we decided to hire Katerina. She was a pleasure to work with. She works with very skilled artisans and has wonderful ideas on how to reinvigorate a room and house. We were delighted with the results of our large project and wouldn't change anything. Katerina communicated well throughout the process and stayed within budget. I would hire Katerina again without fail. We were very disappointed that she left Colorado but our loss is Seattle's gain. A true professional in every sense of the word. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, thank you so much for your kind words. Hope your renewed home will please you for years to come :). **★★★★★ — Konstantin Denev, March 2016** > It is my pleasure to write a recommendation for Mrs. Katerina Bolshakova. My wife and I met Mrs. Bolshakova in the summer of 2007 when we were remodeling our bathrooms and the second floor of the house. Mrs. Bolshakova offered invaluable help and fantastic design ideas. Unfortunately I am “color blind” and have very limited understanding and feel for modern design and this is combined with above average “pickiness” as a client. Katerina handled a multitude of obstacles I threw in front of her on the way, offering a high-level design solutions combined with warm personal approach and utmost patience. Over the course of our “collaboration”, it became apparent Katerina is not only design savvy but also quick to adapt to her clients needs. Furthermore. Mrs. Bolshakova is punctual, professional, and works well with a team of hard headed contractors. She is open to new challenges (we offered quite a few) and keen to explore different ideas. > Our bathrooms and the whole second floor of our house turned out very beautiful and contemporary – exactly the way we wanted it. > Best Regards. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you Konstantin, wow so many details, thank you very much for being able to stop by on my profile and leave that amazing review. **★★★★★ — Michele Trinkel, Jan. 2016** > We were so fortunate to find Katerina. She designed and orchestrated the renovation and remodel of our kitchen, living room and master bathroom. She invested time to get to know us and our taste and was then able to create a perfect design to fit us. Her designs exceeded anything we could have dreamed. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you Michele and Charles, > Thank you for finding time to leave couple of words for me. I am so happy that you are happy! It was so rewarding to work with you on the rejuvenation of your home. Thank you. **★★★★★ — Victor R, Jan. 2016** > Last year we had the distinct pleasure of working with Katerina to remodel our home. We had put off our renovation plans for over two years because we are very particular about whom we work with and therefore had a difficult time finding a contractor that we felt comfortable doing business with. > > Katerina’s company was highly recommended and with Katerina we immediately felt confident and at ease with her. She listened to our ideas and concerns while also providing many of her own. She worked with us to find ways to implement everything that we wanted while always being mindful and respectful of our budgetary constrains. > > When upgrading, it was very important that we remodeled to fit our tastes while also keeping in mind the importance of resale attractiveness. Katerina worked with us to brainstorm and implement design ideas that balanced both objectives. She designed and purchased materials that were practical and tasteful in the finished project. > > Throughout the renovation process, Katerina was very accessible. Her work ethic was of the highest quality and even when not available, she would return our calls in a timely manner. She is well versed in planning and design and interacted in a positive and professional manner with everyone. She worked closely and effectively with the subcontractors to ensure that her designs and ideas were indeed implemented as intended. > > Katerina was very honest, reliable and trustworthy in all of our transactions. I highly recommend her services without hesitation. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, Victor. It was a fun project was't it? Looking forward to help you with your new locations! **★★★★★ — tricemcewen, Jan. 2016** > My husband and I started the process of renovating our house recently. We have never worked with an interior designer before, but interviewed Katerina Bolshakova for the job at the recommendation of a friend of ours and client of hers. We were so impressed with the stunning results of our friend's remodeled kitchen and living room, and wanted to see what Katerina could suggest for our home. > > Katerina began by spending the time required to understand our vision and goals. She has a great sense of humor to loosen up the sharing of ideas. As we walked through our house, she suggested elegant, problem-solving ideas that made sense and tickled our imagination. My husband and I were impressed that Katerina truly knows how to weave together color, texture, flow, and theme. > > She measured every room to create an accurate floor plan upon which she developed conceptual drawings of our remodel. Katerina did a great job of incorporating our feedback into her initial drawings to provide final drawings that truly captured what we want in our dream home. She paid very good attention to details, such as eliminating conflicts with colliding cabinet doors, obstructed air vents etc. > > Katerina spent a day guiding us through several wholesale stores to help us discuss and select specific samples. This day-trip pulled concepts came together. > > In conclusion, Katerina transformed our ideas into a marvelous, cohesive design which we are exited to implement. She made this whole process a great experience, bringing the both of us together on ideas and vision. We so appreciate Katerina’s experience, professionalism, and talent and look forward to working together again. We highly recommend Katerina for your project! **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, such warm words. I enjoyed the process as well, I know your house will look great ones finished. :) **★★★★★ — Gail Sutton, Aug. 2015** > We found KB Design through a friend, whose house we saw and said "Wow!" to the remodeling that had been done. They highly recommended Katerina Bolshakova, and once we met her and discussed our plans and saw how quickly she 'got us' and our needs, we were hooked. We own a 1970's ranch and wanted to open it up (back in the '70's they seemed to think the more rooms they could cram into a floor plan, the better). She also 'got' that we are fairly budget-conscious, and wanted to create a wonderful home without spending an unlimited budget. My husband and I own a business together and are rather strong-minded individuals, and Katerina had an incredible way of "bridging the gap of ideas" and finding solutions that worked for all. She did all of the design work, and helped us to source components where we needed help. She was always upbeat, thorough, steady, professional, fun, and went beyond what we ever hoped we'd receive from an interior designer. We recommended her to friends who are renovating an older home, and they rave about her, too. My sister asked if there was anything we'd change about the outcome of the remodeling, and I said "No!"... which when keeping in mind the scope of what we did (gutting half our house and rebuilding)-- I think that's an amazing testament to Katerina's ideas, guidance and resolve. She recently relocated to Seattle, WA, which is a boon for those in the Northwest and a loss for us here in Colorado. We threw her a good-bye party and we'll throw another party when she returns to visit (she still has clients here who she is working with). We love to entertain now that we have a home that we're proud of and enjoy on an everyday basis! **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you Gail, thank you Jim, loved, loved working with you. Miss you, please let me know if I can help you with any new dreams/locations. **★★★★★ — nocodealfinder, Aug. 2015** > We looked for a Seattle interior designer for years and found KB Designs to be fast superior to anyone else we spoke with. She was able to interpret our style perfectly after only a brief interview and we are still ecstatic with the results. **Comment from KB Design +:** > With the new possibility on Houzz to add comments to reviews, I like to go back and thank you, my wonderful clients for taking time and posting couple of words for me on Houzz. Thank you so much :) **★★★★★ — ryanw52, June 2015** > KB Design provided services ranging from space design to interior decorating input and coordination. KB Design help reshape our original, and 25 year old office reception and R&D space, in addition to new office and conference space located in our manufacturing facility. KB Design worked closely with our GC and collaborated well with our team of marketing and hospitality personnel. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you Ryan, it was wonderful working with the family, all the history and traditions. > Love how the factory looks now. Thanks again. **★★★★★ — irinanov, Dec. 2014** > I worked with Katia from KB Design when we remodeled our kitchen. We had an outdated late 80's kitchen and my goal was to get a modern and functional kitchen on a budget. The quality of the cabinets was very important to me, as well as their durability. KB Design was able to provide all of that! > My project was challenging since our house is in Illinois. However, Katia made this possible and easy. We did everything over Skype, phone, and photos. She was always available by phone, even for my smallest questions. My dream was to have a kitchen in dark shades, but I never thought this was possible due to the lack of natural light in that part of our house. To my surprise, Katia made this possible as well. > On a related note, my husband, who is an engineer, was heavily involved in this project. At times, this project was taxing on our relationship due to disagreements, and I lost my patience a few times. Thankfully, Katia had a lot of patience with both of us and thoroughly explained why certain things needed to be done a certain way, which was tremendously helpful! > Overall, I am very satisfied with the outcome and we get many compliments on the final project. The look of the whole house has been transformed because of the new kitchen. I would recommend KB Design to anyone! > I would recommend KB Design to anyone! **Comment from KB Design +:** > Houzz added a possibility to comment on the reviews, with it I'd like to go back a bit and thank you for nice words, I enjoyed every bit of our project together. Thank you. **★★★★★ — otramary, Oct. 2014** > Having purchased a 1930's bungalow with a small kitchen, I was pleased with KB Design's help in designing a superb layout for my tight space. KB Design was a delight to work with and was a godsend when it came to the ordering and installation of cupboards that exceeded my expectations. > > I love my kitchen and will not hesitate to use this designer again should I need it in the future! **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you! Small but mighty, great space, great client, thank you for your kind words. **★★★★★ — Greyrock Concrete Design, LLC, Sept. 2014** > Ekaterina has been a great partner to work with. We have collaborated on several projects, and she consistently strives to create innovative ideas on how to work our product into her client's designs. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you Steve, your work had always exceeded all expectations. Wish you all the luck. **★★★★★ — imgartner, Sept. 2014** > KB Design was very helpful in understanding our space better, and helped shape our ideas into reality. We couldn't be happier with our unique result. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, so much, hope you enjoy your new home. **★★★★★ — Rudkin Contracting, Inc., Sept. 2014** > From the beginning, Ekaterina was wonderful to work with. She had great ideas about what the client would like, and was always spot on. She takes the interests and styles of the client and develops them into a beautifully put together space. She worked well with our company, and I look forward to working with her again in the future. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, you guys are the best. Absolutely the best, it was a privilege working with you. Have you considered moving to Seattle so we can be in the same state again? Just kidding. Would love an opportunity to work with you again. **★★★★★ — houseofhuge, March 2014** > Our great room turned out fantastic. KB Design made the room warm and inviting. We had a large blank slate to begin with and we couldn't have asked for a better finished product. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, so much for your kind words, it was great working with you, I am so glad you love your new home. **★★★★ — mol8, Feb. 2014** > This was a total gut and redo of a master bathroom to get rid of the carpeting and a broken Jacuzzi. We are very pleased with the design and the color scheme. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you, such a transformation all the light you have now. Thank you for your nice review. **★★★★★ — tcropp, April 2013** > Excellent quality! Great attention to detail and knowledge of interior design! > KB Design is truly my go to business for any interior design needs and architectural questions. **★★★★★ — jskrebneva, April 2013** > Katerina is a great professional who has a thorough knowledge of the industry. She is very keen on the latest trends in the industry, which helps to accommodate customer’s needs and provide world class service. She is innovative, creative and customer oriented, which makes it very easy to work with her. It was always a learning process to be around Katerina and definitely was an honor to work with her! > Julia Skrebneva **★★★★ — robinrichardson, April 2013** > Katerina has a great approach to projects... she involves all parties who will use the room and incorporates their needs and ideas into her design for the space. She did a beautiful job with our living room remodel. Our room was truly transformed. **★★★★★ — gbischof, April 2013** > The Company KBDesigns is one of our favorites! Ekaterina can do anything: She can creatively design a space according to its intended use, she can very well stay within a given budget, she designs with "YOU" in mind. If given no limits she can also play with the "Big Boys" -- in the end -- it's all about You! > Ekaterina Bolshakova has it all! **★★★★★ — loriscano, April 2013** > KB Designs completed work for us in November in time for our holiday celebrations! Katerina did a beautiful job in transforming our Entry Way, Living Room and Dining Room. She is a wonderful professional who is easy to work with and truly respects your budget and personal tastes. We ended up with a remarkable transformation of our home -- something we will love and enjoy for many years to come. We highly recommend Katerina and her professional services. **★★★★★ — erubinshtein, April 2013** > For us the most important thing when we worked with the designer was the trust. > Choosing KB Design was no mistake. They were involved in every aspect > of the space, from colors and shapes to the content of the each drawer. > With their help all, architecture shortcomings were hidden, and our new kitchen is cozy and efficient. > We are most proud of the colors, all of our guests are impressed. > Thank you Katerina for your work and patience! > PS. It is hard to believe but the entire project was done long-distance.. **★★★★★ — Laura Miller, March 2013** > KB Designs did a wonderful job on the remodeling of my companies workspace. They were able to incorporate all of our needs and wants within a budget. The project consisted of the redesign of the space from moving the kitchen and the walls to designing individual work spaces for all employees. The space has been transformed into a comfortable environment that gets complements from everyone that enters. Since this I have hired them to do my personal home as well. **★★★★★ — schnooksie, March 2013** > Katerina turned my boring bedroom into a room with lots of personality. I thoroughly enjoy working with Katerina because of her creative ideas, her professionalism, and her wonderful sense of humor. My only regret is she moved too far away. **Comment from KB Design +:** > Thank you H. thank you so much, the pleasure was mine, always love an opportunity to work with you. **★★★★★ — elvisjay, March 2013** > Best designer you will find. KB Designs created beautiful spaces throughout my home. It's hard to put into words our appreciation.

It seems to be a personal preference from what I am learning. It’s for a kitchen. Just thought I would ask for opinions, thank you! A: The texture facing the room looks more pronounced, the texture facing the inside of the cabinet is easier to clean. **Q: Size of the room?** *(in Photo Questions)* Perplexed by how so many featured rooms on Houzz do not include the ever-important variable of dimensions. What is this size of this home office? A: This is a longish and narrow room. We had to plan very carefully for the sizes of the components to allow proper clearances. I think (do not remember exactly) the room was 9' by 14'. On the photo are shelves along the 9' side. **Q: Name of small tiles** *(in Photo Questions)* Name of small tiles A: these are 2x2 slate mosaic from Bedrosians, not sure they have it now. **Q: what are the dimensions of the counter & sink in the bathroom?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: If I remember correctly, this is a 63" long cabinet, custom made to host two sinks. Regular depth 21" the countertop is overhung by 1.5" on the front and .75" on the side. **Q: Family room, please help me put some wow into it** *(in Design Dilemma)* A: Hello Marysia, it is hard to say looking at the photo what your style is, Before listening any suggestions (they are inevitably will be based on a suggesting person taste) you'll have to figure out in what direction you want to move - rustic, traditional, eclectic, classical (the very contemporary is kind of out of question because of the fireplace and ceiling). After you have the direction you can choose your materials. I'll recommend adding textiles and textures, and tall pieces - tall curtains to emphasize the verticals, taller floor lamp (like an arch lamp?), arrangement on the coffee table - need more layers. Adding texture via runner for the coffee table, throws on the sofa (or maybe, some textile draping the seat) will help too. Be careful with colors, as you stone has definite green undertone - your future colors will need to be friends with it. I do not see why your TV is behind the sofa, but maybe there are more furniture pieces, but you can come up with some sort of a gallery wall on the wall behind the sofa (with or without TV) **Q: Built in and Coffered Ceiling** *(in Building a Home)* We are building a custom home. The living room is open concept with the fireplace on the wall with the 10 ft doors to the porch. Hubby told builder not to take built-in to the ceilings because he thought it would be too busy with the coffered ceiling. The ceilings are 10ft and I feel like the built-in piece is not in line with the grandeur of the room and should go to the ceiling. (The overall piece will shift the right and become taller, wider and deeper with a connecting beam all across the back wall so everything “blends”.) Design thoughts? PLEASE HELP! A: You are right - taller is better in this case, and please try to incorporate the ceiling lines. the coffer lines need to be in agreement with other architecture ( fall in the middle of the opening, or continue the horizontal line into the vertical) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
