We design understated yet bold spaces that are tailored to incorporate the demands of family living while maintaining a timeless appeal. Our designs don’t shout for attention rather they reveal themselves over time. KMID was founded by owner and principal designer Kate Maloney Albiani. With a background in business marketing, Kate followed her passion into the world of interiors in 2003. As her business quickly grew she realized the value of keeping clients informed throughout the design process. Her transparent approach and attention to detail has gained her the trust of countless New England families. At KMID we believe that good design is an organic process between the design team and the clients who know what they love. Our creative process stems from an open line of communication with our clients about the function of each space as well as the look, feel and overall vibe they are hoping to achieve. Our goal is to create rooms that are just as beautiful to look at as they are comfortable to live in. For over ten years now many families have chosen to work with us for our professionalism as well as our youthful spin on balancing form with function.

We're so happy with the final outcome and how Kate & Alison were able to integrate new pieces with items we already own. They are practical, patient, & fun to work with! We will definitely look to KMID for our next design project! **★★★★★ — melindareno, Jan. 2016** > Kate & Thiara worked with us on a significant kitchen, family room, dining room, foyer and mudroom renovations. We absolutely LOVE their work, including my husband, who was initially very anxious about the change. They quickly learned our style and preferences; their recommendations exceeded our expectations! Their recommendations pushed out of our "comfort zone" and we love the way it all came together! We get so many compliments on our light fixtures, colors, sectional, tile, etc. everyone loves the final product. > > We are continuing to use them for "small projects" and I will definitely use them for my next re-design. I highly recommend them! **Comment from Kate Maloney Interior Design:** > Thank you, Melinda! You and Will have great taste and we could not be more thrilled with the final product! **★★★★★ — Maureen Reen, Jan. 2016** > Working with Kate and her team was a stress free experience. She came to my home, took charge and was able to help me in so many ways. She not only redesigned a difficult space in my home, she helped me make small changes in many of my other rooms that made a huge impact. Kate and her team are organized, professional, and have a great sense of style. I never would have been able to design my home in the same way. I love coming home now. It is so inviting, warm, and cozy. My favorite quote from Kate is, "A home should feel collected," no one should walk in and feel like a designer was there. I highly recommend KMID. I have worked with other designers in the past and Kate and her team are the BEST! **Comment from Kate Maloney Interior Design:** > Thanks so much for your kind words, Maureen! We have loved working with you on this project! **★★★★★ — User, Jan. 2016** > We loved working with KMID on furnishing our newly purchased home. KMID took the time to get to know us, iterated through the design to find something we loved, and then took care of all the details from ordering to installation. It was a super easy and fun process, and we continue to work with KMID on additional projects in our house. **Comment from Kate Maloney Interior Design:** > Thanks so much, Ryan! You have been excellent clients to collaborate with, it's been our pleasure! > -Kate & Team **★★★★★ — contact49, Aug. 2015** > I have worked with Kate and her team for several years on many design projects. They are consummate professionals and a joy to work with. You will thank yourself for putting your faith into their projects. > > Fred Carter > Designer's Choice **★★★★★ — bdeering1977, March 2015** > Kate and her team helped me put together a finished look in my condo. Having recently married at the time, we were also marrying our furniture and tastes. She was able to work with what I had and suggest placement. She also supplied the most beautiful curtains and pillows for a finished look and the gentleman who installed the curtains was a true gem. Furniture layout suggestions that I used over time (couldn't move to quickly with my husband's fear of change) and she found chairs to match my custom dining table. She was patient with us and ended up transforming our condo into a home that we are proud of. **★★★★★ — Cheeky Monkey Home, March 2015** > I have worked with Kate Maloney and her team over the last 10 years as a professional mural painter and as a provider of custom made pillows & cushions. Kate is amazingly professional, respectful to both her clients and her vendor partners. The only thing that could overshadow Kate's impeccable service is her outstanding creativity, resourcefulness and original, unique style. I work with many wonderful designers, and Kate and her team are truly refreshing in their approach and style---always looking at the design problem with a new lens and with a unique approach that feels completely authentic and special to each client. I will absolutely use Kate Maloney Interior Design for my home, and always recommend her to others, as my top choice! **★★★★★ — Holmes Fine Furniture, March 2015** > KMID has always been very professional and great to work with! > Looking forward to working on future projects with them. **★★★★★ — Jamie Kane, March 2015** > Kate found me many 'perfect fit' solutions to help our house have a finished look. She is quick, smart, and fair. **★★★★★ — Pamela Cramer, Nov. 2014** > I hired Kate to makeover my new living space - living, dining and kitchen. I had never worked with a design firm before and decided on KMID because Kate was such a breath of fresh air. I was looking for someone who could help make my space eclectic and cool while still being functional and easy. Kate quickly paired me up perfectly with Thiara from her team, who is an absolute style inspiration. Kate and Thiara were amazing to work with! > > The experience was very collaborative. Kate and Thiara visited the space and we had a consultation about my thoughts, preferences and budget. A couple weeks later they came back with a design that optimized the layout, incorporated my existing pieces, and added a tremendous mix of unique pieces, fun prints and bold colors. With the proposal and the samples provided, I was able to envision the new space. We discussed each piece individually and as part of the whole so I could really focus on where I wanted to invest. From there we made some tweaks so that the finished space truly feels like it represents me with its mix of vintage pieces, unique lighting and eclectic prints and textures. > > I am absolutely thrilled with my new home! It is even more than I hoped for! I would not hesitate to engage with KMID in the future or to recommend their services to others. > > THANK YOU! THANK YOU! **★★★★★ — 5moore, April 2014** > Kate and her team are absolutely fabulous to work with: wonderfully creative and unique ideas that will stand the test of time, very responsive to my needs and feedback, highly professional and organized services to execute the vision. We've done 3 projects with Kate, ranging in size from one living room to a whole house, and have always been extremely pleased with her vision & style ... plus she's just a really nice person! **★★★★★ — Lorri Wheeler, April 2014** > I have had the distinct pleasure of working with Kate and her design team at KMI on two homes over the past decade. Most recently, we worked together decorating every room in my suburban New England colonial. We have forged and amazing partnership and are thrilled with the results. Kate’s warm and friendly approach along with her exquisite palette and attention to detail are unparalleled. While spending time to get to know our family and our preferences, Kate and her team presented us with designs and products that stretched our imagination and suit our lifestyle. She has been able to design spaces that are visually beautiful, fun and ready for entertaining. Every time we begin a new project, our first call is to KMI design. Kate’s entire design team is fabulous. I highly recommend KMI! ## Selected projects - [Modern Meadow Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-meadow-residence-pj-vj~3095549) - Location: Wayland, MA - Photos: 12 - [Lakeside Guest House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lakeside-guest-house-pj-vj~3095332) - Location: Moultonborough, NH - Photos: 18 - [Winchester Victorian](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/winchester-victorian-pj-vj~2573818) - Location: Winchester, MA - Photos: 10 - Description: This home was designed for a young family living in a beautiful Victorian home that needed a bit of a youthful spin. After seeing KMID owner Kate Maloney on the cover of her college magazine, this home owner was excited to work with a designer who came from the same business school. KMID worked to balance the historical details with a friendly and more casual interior that was suitable to this client's lifestyle. With this successful project complete we look forward to working on their summer ho… - [Harvard Square Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/harvard-square-residence-pj-vj~2573701) - Location: Cambridge, MA - Photos: 20 - Description: During the construction process our colleagues at Charles R. Myer & Partners engaged KMID to consult on the window seat cushions and window treatments for this gorgeous home located just outside of Harvard Square in Cambridge.

KMID helped to determine where existing furnishings should be placed and what other furnishings should be added to compliment… - [Cambridge Retreat](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cambridge-retreat-pj-vj~1453897) - Location: Cambridge, MA - Photos: 11 - Description: Collaborations are our favorite part of what we do. We were engaged in this project to help this young married couple create a home to call their own. There were some physical limitations to consider while maintain a comfortable and inviting environment. With ADA requirements in play our team worked with these clients to create a home that is not only safe but also evokes a cheerful vibe that mirrors this couple's spirit. - [Somerville Condo](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/somerville-condo-pj-vj~785269) - Location: Somerville, MA - Photos: 9 - Description: This client has impeccable taste and already owned some great pieces.

From Bourne to P-Town there are some spectacular vacation homes that all have a casual "beachy" spirit to them. KMID looked to reinvent that look with this home in Cataumet. After designing this client's home in Arlington, KMID was engaged to help them furnish this newly purchased vacation home. Since everything had to be purchased new there was special care taken to have the rooms feel collected over time. KMID was also as… - [Wellesley Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/wellesley-residence-pj-vj~39200) - Location: Wellesley, MA - Photos: 20 - Description: Our clients' design taste and the architecture of their home are the two driving factors in our design direction. The home itself will set the tone for the lines of the furnishings and then we can layer the family's personal style right into the mix. In this home we lightened walls and furnishings in some rooms and darkened them in others to create a balance as you move from space to space. Our signature combination of shapes and fabrics helped us to achieve a unique collection of design element… - [Charlestown Pied à Terre](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/charlestown-pied-a-terre-pj-vj~2437079) - Location: Boston, MA - Photos: 8 - [Martha's Vineyard](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/martha-s-vineyard-pj-vj~682834) - Location: Martha's Vineyard, MA - Photos: 17 - Description: KMID was engaged to furnish this clients' Martha's Vineyard home from top to bottom. The objective was to create a family friendly space that was welcoming and could handle 'vacation living' in the summer months. KMID was responsible to select all the furnishings, window coverings, art placement, bedding and lighting throughout the home. We're proud to have created a cheerful space for this family to gather. - [Newton Colonial](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/newton-colonial-pj-vj~1453860) - Location: Newton, MA - Photos: 6 - Description: Classic lines and gorgeous light were the inspiration for this grand home in Newton.

The home owners were interested in making this 1800s farmhouse into something unique that they could call their own. What started with a lead paint removal project quickly escalated into a reconfiguration of two staircases which opened up both the family room and allowed for a master closet on the second floor. We called in long time colleague Charles R. Myer & Partners to collaborate and Skinner Hill Construction to make our vision into a reality. The owners… - [New England Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-england-home-pj-vj~2437745) - Location: Wellesley, MA - Photos: 11 - [New Hampshire](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-hampshire-pj-vj~2437140) - Location: New London, NH - Photos: 8 - [Brookline Townhouse](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/brookline-townhouse-pj-vj~2437537) - Location: Brookline, MA - Photos: 4 - [Lake Sunapee Guest House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lake-sunapee-guest-house-pj-vj~38810) - Location: Sunapee, NH - Photos: 7 - Description: This spectacular guest house was designed by the architecture team at Charles R. Myer and partners. KMID was engaged to help furnish the living space and two bedrooms. Our first request was to understand how the family used the space when they DIDN'T have guests...or wanted to use the space. We decided that a destination draw was in order so we designed a custom upholstered "island" in the middle of the great room. We wanted a place to come when it was rainy and you wanted to cozy up with a good… [See all 16 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/kitchen-and-bath-designers/kate-maloney-interior-design-pfvwus-pf~721450962) ## Ideabooks - [kmidesign\_belmont kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/90819819/list/kmidesign-belmont-kitchen) — 8 ideas - [kmidesign\_swartz](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/18691195/list/kmidesign-swartz) — 28 ideas - [kmidesign\_vermont gas fireplace surround](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/4337607/list/kmidesign-vermont-gas-fireplace-surround) — 6 ideas - [kmidesign\_vermont stair concept](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/4337119/list/kmidesign-vermont-stair-concept) — 11 ideas - [kmidesign\_wellesley dining room](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/2688345/list/kmidesign-wellesley-dining-room) — 11 ideas [See all 5 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/kmidesign) ## Community Q&A **Q: island pendants?** *(in Photo Questions)* Do you have info on the island pendant lights?
