**★★★★★ — rrhagman, April 2014**

> Kit Golson has an excellent sense of style and is very professional.  One of her many strengths is her knowledge of finishes and colors.  I recommend her highly.

**★★★★★ — mfranceschase, April 2014**

> Kit put together a color and design palette that was perfect for the changes she could see were taking place in my life. I was not even aware of what I wanted to do, but based on my description of what I needed psychologically, she magically designed 4 rooms for me.
> She listens to her client, has wonderfully diverse ideas and knows her brands and can make the whole experience fun and exciting.
> She was respectful of my budget, my deadlines, and she is a professional at all times. I trusted her and had complete confidence in her ability as she produced what she promised.

**★★★★★ — kristinafesta, March 2014**

> Kit was great to work with! In addition to having a lovely design sense, she was patient and flexible in working with us. As is often the case, a simple project to redecorate one room was the catalyst for several subsequent projects. Decisions for one room that opened into other living areas had to take the issues with the other areas into consideration. We were beginning to feel overwhelmed with analysis paralysis. Because our initial budget couldn't scale to handle the full scope of the project(s), Kit put together a plan that could be implemented in waves. She made sure that design choices for each step and each room coordinated, even though the steps were spaced out over the course of two years. When the entire project was finally completed, you'd never know it hadn't been done all at once.  I highly recommend her.

## Community Q&A

**Q: i love this room!** *(in Photo Questions)*

please do share the curtains very nice! who is the source? thanks

A: HI thanks! the curtains are a plain ivory linen panels with the pelmet in a silk plaid from Calico Corners, Style Dalit, color not certain but includes sea foam

**Q: Would you share the particular color of green and manufacturer? Thnks** *(in Photo Questions)*

Great combination.  You made this work!

A: Thanks so much and thanks for your patience!  The minty green of living area is Frazee Cardoon CL 2012W with a light reflective value of 80, which is perfect for the somewhat gloomy east coast weather...

**Q: What wall color is this?  It is gorgous.** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Thank you!  The minty green is Frazee Cardoon CL 2012W with a light reflective value of 80, which is perfect for the somewhat gloomy east coast weather!

**Q: Is the shelving one unit or is it custom built to the wall?** *(in Photo Questions)*

I love this wall unit... We are building something similar in our home and we're trying to figure out the best way to do it. Are the cabinets and shelving mounted directly to the wall or is it a whole "unit" that has wood backing also? Meaning.. did you paint the inside of the shelves directly on the wall or the wood?

A: HI Fonzyanna... the bookcase unit was completely backed by wood for stability and structure... then we painted the entire unit the same color with some of the details painted out in a lighter version of the color... the whole thing went together well...

**Q: Love the table where is it from?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: I was wondering the same thing... nice coffee table, great lines and scale..where is it from? thanks!

**Q: how wide are the side light and the doors?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: I believe the doors are 36" each for 72" opening,  and the sidelights are 18" each... lots of great light coming into the kitchen area this way while still providing some separation from the living area... I can't find the exact dimension right now!
