Kim Cutler

Kathy and her team were wonderful to work with. She has an incredible eye for color and detail that made our kitchen renovation seamless.

Kathy provides a creative intuition which few share with an ability to integrate different design genres seamlessly. She also has an amazing attention to detail and with an eye to practicality. She did this with our kitchen renovation helping it flow with the family room choosing a beautiful blue Aga stove and wood and soap stone countertops making it feel part of the family room. The design for our mudroom has a nautical flair with white bead board walls and ceilings and a lay out that meets the needs of our family. Kath also keeps is simple so as not to overwhelm - picking paint colors our summer home construction was a case in point. Highly recommend !

Kathy brings an A game to every project, with creativity and patience in full effect. Our most memorable project was the kitchen/pantry/home office at This Old House's 25th anniversary project, for which I was the producer. It was a high-profile, high-pressure job in a complex space with many moving parts and players. Kathy navigated it with grace and aplomb, and the final product was magnificent.

I have had the pleasure of working with Kathy, and those at Kathy Marshall Design, on several projects. Kathy has the innate ability to work well with clients and the trades alike. Her understanding of the clients’ wishes and desires are communicated effectively to those working on the project. Her energy and problem-solving capabilities are not only helpful but imperative to the success of each project. She works hard for each client and produces quality work, paying attention to every detail. As a colleague, her strengths are her capacity to listen and communicate effectively, her excellent problem-solving skills and her timely delivery of projects. Kathy has the ability, and staff, to handle projects of all sizes. I would highly recommend Kathy to anyone who is looking for an extremely talented and professional designer who produces quality work!

We hired Kathy to design a kitchen in our 115 year old Tudor. She had wonderful ideas on how to preserve the historic nature of the space, but also give us the modern touches that fit more with our style. At the last minute we ended up moving to a new house, and we brought her in to redesign the kitchen as it was so cookie cutter and we had been so excited with what she had come up with for our "old" kitchen. Her design help spilled over into the rest of the house and we couldn't be happier. She helped with furniture, fabrics, art, wallpaper, rugs, light fixtures, you name it. Kathy has contacts and resources with all the professionals in the area that you will need to get the job done. She is innovative and has contagious good energy. It is Kathy's extensive knowledge of the actual construction process and how a design and remodel is implemented that sets her apart from our last kitchen designer who merely put it on paper.
