Kim was an absolute dream. She was incredibly professional but also warm and easy to work with. She truly listened to me and was able to turn my vision into a reality. Kim was also very mindful of my budget and made great suggestions based on what I was able to spend.
She also hired the best contractors to do the job and was able to get great prices on materials because of her vast network of resources.
I can't wait to get the next project going with her.

I'm looking forward to (virtually) doing your laundry room with you soon!

We worked with Kim Johnson for our home’s paint and drapery upstairs, and our basement renovation, including new kitchen and built-in entertainment wall. Stop searching, you have found the designer that does it all, with the most exquisite taste and vast experience. Kim is a professional with so much industry knowledge about kitchens. She held our hands from the start: went to vendors with us for selections, spent hours designing kitchen and built-in unit cabinet design layouts to present to us, reworking and improving designs based on our feedback. Kim knows electric, plumbing, lighting, flooring. Oh and Kim’s expertise with paint color selections is superb. She knows color, and walked us through many iterations of white until we decided on upstairs (BM Dove Wing) and the basement (BM Silver Satin). Most importantly, Kim listens to her clients. Kim made strong suggestions to us, but listened when I had different ideas (electrical outlets under the cabinets). She knows when to push on a feature (American black honed granite instead of white Calacatta Maggio Duo quartz) with the gray cabinets on our entertainment wall,) to entirely improve the look. She will sit and look at light fixtures with you, for as long as it takes, to find the right one. Kim remembers every single detail, to make sure your project proceeds smoothly with the contractor. She works from the heart, loves what she does, and it shows. It was a pleasure working with Kim every single step of the way. Thank you, Kim, for our stunning, classy, urban finished basement!

With her exquisite taste and innate ability to understand your taste - Kim Johnson is the best interior designer I have ever worked with (and I have worked with a few).
Kim listens to your ideas and turns them into a space that is so much better than you imagined. She follows a budget carefully and is considerate of constraints you may have.
My favorite question from Kim - is that something you like?

I used Kim to help me elevate the atmosphere and interior design of our urban, open plan, row house. We had started the decorating with a few modern furniture stores but it was not coming together. Kim immediately identified the elements that would take it to the next level--wall color, furniture adds, rugs, lighting etc. The outcome was beyond my expectation. Everyone is wowed when they enter our home. Kim has the X factor for design and understanding clients' needs. She brings it all together with expertise and care. She will work within a budget and delivers far more than you would expect. I highly recommend Kim.

Kim Johnson has helped me on two design projects in two houses. The first was a kitchen and family room renovation. Kim walked me through the process and had the knowledge or design, color, products and contractors who could produce my dream kitchen. She guided me in making the best use of the space and making it look fabulous! The project was executed seamlessly and timely. Kim also helped me work long distance on a renovation of a 3 bedroom home. The design, colors, furnishings, light fixtures, fun accents and ideas she provided have all made the home functional and extremely warm and inviting.

Working with Kim is a joy. She helped me redo multiple rooms in my house on time and on budget. I had a jumble of ideas (many of them contradictory and overlapping) and she translated them into a coherent result that is beautiful and practical. She has excellent subs and trades people who deliver excellent quality work and are great communicators. From start to finish, it was an excellent experience. I look forward to working with her again.

Thank you, Kristen! You are a joy to work with too! I loved helping to transform your hall bath pictured below and giving your kitchen a facelift while you were out of town. And I hope the new dining room built-in (pictured below before counters were installed) will be as functional for you and your family as it is beautiful.

Fortunately for us, Kim had a much more expansive vision for the possibilities in our renovation than we had. Not only does she have a designer's eye for color, texture and lines, but she also is well-versed in the technical aspects involved in building/renovation. Kim was also respectful of our personal tastes and life-style. The end product is a comfortable and welcoming home - better than we could have imagined.
Kim is a delightful blend of friendliness and professionalism - rather a rare commodity these days.

Kim spent several hours at my home and could not have been more professional or kind. She took time to listen to my ideas and then built on those to advise me on the best way to refinish my master bedroom and master bath. The end result is better than we ever could have imagined. She has great connections and had paint samples delivered to our door quickly so that we could make the final decision. She has tremendous vision for any room and knows how to incorporate what is important to you and still make it classy and beautiful. She was incredible to work with and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.

Kim helped me renovate two bathrooms. I couldn’t have been happier with the results and the process! Kim was knowledgeable about the items we needed to purchase. Kim gave input on style choices and colors keeping my specific tastes in mind. If we ever decide to renovate our kitchen, Kim will be the first person I call! She is dependable, knowledgeable and professional.

Kim is the best designer I've done a project with (I've worked with 4 over the last 15 years. ) She's creative, passionate about the work she does, and down to earth. She held my hand though the whole process of measuring and designing my space to picking out every last item in it. It helped that she hooked us up with different contractors and knew where to purchase everything we needed. She knew how to take my tastes into account while still providing firm, clear guidance on issues I didn't understand. AND she also happens to be affordable! A total win-win.

I contacted Kim Johnson to assist me in a renovation of my 52-year-old 4-bedroom colonial style home in Western Fairfax,County. I needed some design help and got it! She opened my eyes to possibilities I'd not considered and helped me dispose of ideas that cost a lot of money with little potential return should I decide to sell at some point. I was impressed by her tear-down and install and paint crews - all highly professional people.
I now have a brighter, more up-to-date, occupational therapy - approved home with a new, larger kitchen with matching powder room and open area to the updated family room, revamped upstairs bath rooms, consistent window treatments, a wonderful good-grade carpet and consistent trim throughout the house. We kept some wallpaper and some tile I like that works well with the new. We upgraded the pantry / laundry room and replaced HVAC and garage entry doors. The front door is more inviting and the patio posts are new. She even helped me hang pictures!

Kim consulted with us on updating living room and a complete re-design of our family room.

Kim Johnson, of Kim Johnson Designs, has worked with me and my two adult daughters for several years on both large and small remodeling project. She is extremely knowledgeable and well connected with major area suppliers who give her clients significant discounts.
Kim is the ultimate professional, well organized, always responsive, and punctual. Her focus is to make sure her clients get what they truly want, and if we don't find it at one supplier she will suggest another. All this, and her rates are very reasonable.

We all love Kim in our family- Kim did our bathrooms (Faust Drive)- and I am continuing to work with her on finishing the rest of my master bedroom. Next up- the first floor- kitchen etc. She really gets to know her clients, and has stretched me beyond my comfort and yet she consistently is right and knows exactly what I want. I cherish her as a decorator, consultant, and someone that decorates after really understanding the family, our needs, and our style.

Kim helped us build our dream kitchen! She helped us see potential with the space, and options that we had not previously considered. We ended up removing an interior wall that really opened everything up. We absolutely love the finished product. Kim is excellent with details down to color coordination and subtle design choices.

Kim did a great job for us in overseeing our master bathroom renovation. She works closely with and oversees the renovation people who do the work. She redesigned the bathroom and help us chose tile, paint colors, cabinets, shower, fixtures/ etc., and also chose the wall paints for the bathroom and the adjoining master bedroom. The whole project was done in 8 days, with a minimum of noise and disruption. Project cost was about $14K, included Kim's services, tiles, shower, cabinets, painting. We will be using her services again to redo our kitchen and family room.

Kim is fantastic!! She takes such an interest in her clients and provides the absolute best service. She knows exactly how to transform a space to make it functional for her client's needs. She is very detailed and goes above and beyond to make sure everything is just right. For example, she spent many extra hours helping us fix our kitchen design (we made numerous adjustments and she was always happy to help). She has phenomenal cabinet makers who were easy to work with--we adjusted our plan 3 times, but they were quick to help and didn't mind recreating the design. Kim has lots of experience and knowledge about home design. Another concern for us was the price. Since she has companies she works with she can get her clients fantastic discounts, and it is a very smooth and easy process since she knows them very well. She helped us get the best prices to stay within our budget. I can't say enough about how much we loved working with her. Highly recommend!

Kim was both a consultant and a cheerleader for our renovation of three bedrooms. She was a good listener and asked thoughtful questions about the uses of the rooms and our preferences. Then she provided honest advice and shared her expertise. She also helped identify existing items we could reuse or refinish. My husband and I did much of the work ourselves, but Kim provided the useful guidance for our decisions. She also went shopping with us to assist with design and color choices. She was delightful to work with and we are so pleased with the results! Thanks for a great job!

I met Kim when the painter I hired offered her services to help me select paint colors. Kim ended up helping me with so much more!
Kim was such a delight and so helpful with selecting the perfect colors for my house. She visited my home where she offered me a million other terrific suggestions for redecorating my house, including new furniture instead of the new slipcovers I was planning to buy - which were set to cost me the same as brand new furniture. She got my style right away and was very encouraging and uplifting.
We next met me at a wonderful furniture store I did not know about where they make quality furniture in Virginia. Kim had done homework in advance of our meeting and had selected personalized options for me to choose from. It was such fun selecting the furniture and fabrics, and her guidance was essential to a quick and perfect result. All along the way she honored my tastes and style.
The result is fabulous! I highly recommend Kim for any of your decorating needs. She was respectful of my time, budget and style. Worth so much more than her fee.

Your paint project/main level upgrade was so fun to work on-especially since it was all based around your crazy cool leopard print wall-to-wall carpet! That was so interesting and fun to design paint colors and fabrics around- and it turned out gorgeous! I'm so glad you're happy and that I got the privilege to work with you.

Kim consulted on the paint throughout my whole house. She also had invaluable input on furniture selection in my kitchen, dining room, living room, and bedroom. She has an eye for quality, but was very willing to find a way to make things work within my budget. She did some later follow up projects for my children's bedrooms- completely adorable!
The best thing about Kim is that she is all in. She has the ability to truly connect with people and pick up on their style. She is a friendly and genuine person, truly delightful to work with.

In May 2010 I took a big leap of faith and signed a commercial lease for my yoga business. The place had great bones, but needed a lot of work. Knowing I needed some professional advice, one of my students referred me to Kim Johnson. I had never worked with a interior designer before and was nervous at the first meeting, but Kim came in with her laid back, warm personality, listened to my vision of the ideal studio, and I knew she was the right person for the job. Our budget was small, but that didn't deter her from finding awesome ways to use beautiful paint colors, wall murals, and being creative in finding key accessories that set the place apart from other yoga studios in the area. Every week someone new comes in and tells me how stunning the studio is! Kim is a hard worker, reliable, easy to work with, and has a great eye for color and details. I loved her so much for my business, that I called her to help with a country home my husband and I bought. Her suggestions transformed our house, and we will definitely use her again.

We hired Kim on a recommendation from a friend of a friend. We were living overseas and had a bought a home in Virginia that needed a bit of TLC before we relocated. Kim was able to see the home before we closed on the sale, and she worked with me via phone, email and Skype to redo flooring, the kitchen and a few other fixes before the furniture arrived. We were so pleased with the results, she designed our tweens/teens bedrooms and then helped with our basement overhaul. She is a gem. She is very flexible on scheduling, and committed to meeting your needs while working within your budget.

My husband and I recently sold our home of fifteen years and downsized into an apartment. We immediately faced a multitude of choices: what to keep, what to discard, what to buy new, what colors and light fixtures to choose and how to display our art. Fortunately, we sought out Kim who provided us with advice, encouragement and professional expertise. She listened to us, assessed our needs and tastes and quickly went to work. What seemed an unending series of choices suddenly became fun as the pieces magically and methodically came together. We love our new home and are grateful to Kim for her knowledge, her talent, her insight and her patience. We would recommend her services to others without hesitation.

Kim helped me renovate my kitchen.
Kim knows her profession, has a vision, is flexible and a great partner. She always had ideas to share to help me realize my vision. What I particularly appreciated about Kim was her willingness to work within my budget. I am a single mother with limited means. I saved up for a while to afford my kitchen remodel and needed to do it all within a tight budget. Kim had ideas on how I could achieve my dream but to stay within my means. She would brainstorm with me about ways to get things done affordably and yet to stay with the quality that mattered to me.
My kitchen looks terrific and I get compliments every time people come to my house and see my kitchen.
This remodel took place November 2014. Since then, I have had Kim come back to help me with a project in my dining room. Next (when I save some more), I will have Kim come back to help me with a spare bedroom (currently a junk room) that will become a study.
I would recommend Kim to anyone - not just for kitchens but also for any house project. She is not only a professional in her craft but is also lovely to work with.

Kim helped me decorate my whole house after we had it remodeled from a traditional colonial to a more contemporary, open floor plan. She really paid attention to my ideas and thoughts, she looked at what I had and incorporated what made sense, she stayed within my budget. She has WONDERFUL ideas, is prompt, reliable, kind and fun. We had a blast going to fabric shops, hardware stores, furniture showrooms, etc. I just can't say enough about her. She is fabulous.

She does not push her own style on her clients, but will help figure out your own design preferences so that your space becomes completely YOURS! She is passionate about what she does and gets excited about all of her projects. If you hire her you will not be sorry!!

I recently worked with Kim on several projects in my eclectic home. Her strongest assets were her endless supply of energy and her imaginative way of looking at space. We began with a scattered set of rooms and are now headed toward a more unified, coherent--yet organic--style for the whole house. Kim doesn't work within a rigid template, in terms of material or process. She tends to let a project grow with a life of its own. So, if you would like to collaborate with a creative, tireless, and innovative partner, be sure to contact Kim.

Kim Johnson of Kim Johnson Designs was a pure joy to work with and would highly recommend her!!! Throughout our whole-house remodel Kim helped to guide, recommend, encourage, support and educate us in an informative, experienced yet respective and completely comfortable way.
She helped us to navigate the overwhelming and confusing process of a million choices by helping to uncover our desires and wishes (often unknown to us) to create a cohesive design direction that was in our style and budget. Our project included building new spaces (master bedroom suite, family room, mudroom) with an entire kitchen rebuild, as well as remodeling 3 additional bathrooms, laundry room and re-purposing existing space in 4500 sq ft house. The planning for the process was 7 months and construction 7 months, while interior design continues.
Kim helped us make construction decisions during the early stages with an architect - she provided the real-world, practical, "women's-view" with architectural experience. Kim helped to confirm design decisions for all cabinetry (layout, wood choices, hardware and granite countertops) for extensive kitchen cabinets, dining room, and 4 bathrooms). Kim then directed the paint color choices for all rooms in the house and was essential in the selection of custom furniture items for new family room as well as window treatments for several rooms in the house. She also continues to make suggestions/answer questions about any area of the house whenever I ask.
Working with Kim was like spending time with a dear friend, who is just as interested in your project and its success as you are (sometimes more when you are frustrated and tired of making decisions). Although she often works as a general contractor, we were working with a separate architect and contractor for the execution, yet she complimented them beautifully. She is very flexible in her arrangements and can work with anyone and any situation. Kim is very fair and reasonable. You will love working with her.

Kim Johnson helped me with two projects--a dressing room with a vanity and a master bathroom. In addition, she suggested wall colors and carpeting throughout my condo. Her services included recommending lighting and bathroom fixtures, assisting in selecting tile and countertops, and arranging for an electrical/plumbing contractor, whose work she supervised. She is a master at selecting and matching paint, and I have received many complements on her eye for color.
Kim is very easy to work with. She listened to my needs and preferences and is adept at scheduling and following up on arrangements. I highly recommend her and will call upon her for any decorating needs I may have in the future.
January 30, 2014
Kim is such a warm and enthusiastic person that working with her was so easy. She was always there for me, always took my call or text, never left me waiting which was really important. Her ideas about different projects in my house..2 bathroom remodels and basement mini kitchen were perfect! She saved me so much money and her ideas were spot on!
January 20, 2014
I have worked with Kim on two renovations; a kitchen and a hall bath. In both cases, Kim has been an enormous help. She knows the right people for the job, has great ideas and great imagination, and has the wisdom and tact to gently nudge me into another direction when I come up with some bone-headed idea that cannot possibly work. She's a joy to work with, and I'll probably be calling her again in the future.
