We did a bathroom remodel during COVID time and even though ran into some hiccups were so pleased with the outcome. Kathy's attention to detail was amazing. Her suggestions on finishes were right on. Her honesty was so refreshing as well. When challenges occurred she responded immediately. I would highly recommend contacting her for your job.

I will be hiring Kathy again for our next house remodel project.

Over the past 15 years Kathy has coordinated 3 projects for me. She is truly professional - returns calls, answers questions, resolves any issues promptly, works within the budget, follows through for quality installations. She never imposed her design ideas on me, but rather worked with my thoughts and helped refine them, made suggestions and showed me options. The highest praise came from one of the installers 15 years ago when he said that Kathy's designs don't look the same from one home to the next - because she does what the client wants. I have and will continue to recommend her to friends. She is a delightful and positive person!

We have engaged Kathy Barry, Home Life Interiors, for her professional services for both our home in Kentwood and our recent move to a condo. She is very knowledgeable regarding design trends and works on-site with you to achieve your goals. From the initial design meetings to the completion of the project our expectations were exceeded. She has an excellent eye for color and is able to help choose the right style and fabric for furnishings and accessories. She accompanied us to flooring, tile and furniture dealers and knew the exact items that would work for us. She works within your budget and offers many options. The contractors she recommends are first class and she manages the project from start to finish. We highly recommend Kathy and are honored to serve as a reference. Certainly we will use her in the future.

Kathy did a terrific job helping me pick out furniture. She came with me to furniture stores and knew all the right questions to ask! She was able to help me find items that helped us stay in budget. Very professional service and I would highly recommend her for any project you might have!

Ms. Barry is very much a hands-on manager of design projects. She was at our home nearly every day and sometimes twice a day when work was ongoing . She was on top of any problem that arose and attempted to solve it on the spot. She arranged for very fine contractors for our project, especially Paul and Scott who are conscientious and creative tradespeople. They did not settle for quick or easy fixes but spent the extra effort and used their skill and talents to correct anomalies that arose, particularly in our older home.

Kathy Barry is the CONSUMMATE professional!....She is uber-knowledgeable, patient, and calm when helping with decisions. Kathy worked with my daughter and me and our home is a more beautiful place because of that! We recently moved into a new condo, and Kathy helped us with decorations and especially the window dressings.
Please do NOT hesitate to call and to discuss and then enjoy your results!

Kathy is the interior decorator who helped us transform our kitchen into a show-stopper! She listened to our desires, shopped for the right match for our cabinets, and time, and gave us options that fit within our budget. She was easy to work with and patient as we asked many questions and worked through what we wanted.

Kathy is great to work with. She works to put her clients needs first, and is actively involved in their projects, providing them peace of mind. She is attuned to the details and works to hard to make sure every aspect of the design works for her clients.

Kathy was a great help when I remodeled my master bath. She was very resourceful and mindful of my budget. When I begin the remodel of other areas of my home, Home Life Interiors will be my first call.

My husband and I hired Kathy Barry to update our kitchen with granite countertops and tile backsplash. Kathy is a very knowledgeable and talented designer and great to work with. We couldn't be happier with the results and have received many compliments on our kitchen. We are repeat customers and would hire Kathy again!

Kathy is very respectful and always puts the client at the top of the list. The team at Kellermeier Plumbing has continued to work with Home Life Interiors over the years and built a great business relationship and friendship. The amount of detail and hard work that goes into her designs in unmatched in my work experience. I would recommend the services of Home Life Interiors to any of my friends and family.
Keep up the outstanding work and as always we look forward to working with you in the future.

Having worked with Kathy on projects for "mutual clients" in the past, I knew that she was my choice when I decided to renovate MY OWN master suite. I was extremely busy with my own work, so I left my own project in Kathy's competent control. I only had to say "Yes! I like that design!" and "Perfect color!" Kathy followed through on every detail with my builder, placed all orders and kept on top of my project. There were few moments of "trying Plan B" because Kathy listened carefully and clarified exactly what I was looking for BEFORE we started the project. She kept detailed notes, was organized and made herself available according to my own busy work schedule. AND, Best of All -- our master suite is lovely!

Kathy Barry has helped me redecorate almost every room in my home. She is very patient, creative and professional. I appreciate how she gives options as directions to go with the colors, textures, etc and never forces her opinion. I've come to rely on her expertise so much that I wouldn't think of doing a room without her!

I am a remodeling contractor who has worked together with Kathy on several projects.
Kathy has a talent for bringing all the many colors, textures, and details together and blend them with existing elements to make the final project very well put together and appointed.
As a contractor I have also found Kathy was very good to work with as she is always open to discussing and understanding the technical construction details/challenges as they relate to accomplishing her design goals.
The projects we have done together have all turned out great and the clients very satisfied.

With Kathy's help, we recently updated the first floor of our home. She was a joy to work with on our project. I appreciated Kathy's talent for color, design, and style. She paid close attention to details, suggested clever ideas, and was readily available for our appointments. I wouldn't have wanted to do this project without her. It gave me piece-of-mind to know that I was making the right decisions and would be happy with the results.

Working with Kathy from Home Life Interiors was a great experience. She helped us complete an entire Kitchen Remodel from start to finish. Her expertise guided us through the entire process, and we could not have been more pleased with the results. Our Kitchen Remodel consisted of new custom kitchen cabinets, glass tile back splash, brand new lighting on our entire main floor, new paint in the kitchen and half bathroom (ceiling and walls), new sink and fixtures, new appliances, new cabinet knobs, and even some accent pieces such as new bar stools. We made the right decision to work with a professional to get the job done flawlessly.

Kathy of Home Life Interiors was pleasant, professional, and competent. We hired her to redecorate our living and dining room areas, and we are very happy with the results.
She always followed through with anything she said she would do, or any time she said she would meet us. She is willing to work with what you have rather than buy everything new. She listens carefully to your preferences and designs the room or house with that in mind.

Commented: what color is this lovelyThis is a custom color. It started with a warm off white as the base, such as Sherwin Williams 7012 Creamy. The reddish brown glaze was a wipe on/wipe off process which changed the color to what you...

Commented: Where can I get the ottomansThese ottomans are from Kravet. Custom ordered in a microfiber. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Commented: Are these cabinets white or cream?I'm so sorry to have just seen this! Houzz does not notify when there is a question. The cabinets are cream with the glaze over which adds a slightly darker tone.
