Design Studio

I loved working with Catherine on our kitchen banquette project. I was afraid the project would be too small for her but she was happy to take it on. Every single step of the process was professional, timely and she always took the time to truly listen. She really got what we were looking for and then enhanced the whole thing with her eye for style. My husband said, «Thank God we didn’t do this project earlier. It wouldn’t have turned out anything like this and would have been horrible.» Best of all, we’re not afraid of our new banquette – we sit and use it every day and enjoy every nuance. Catherine & Design Studio got it just right and I can’t wait to have her start in on our library. And then our bedroom. Come to think of it, our living room isn’t what I’d like it to be either…

Whether you need a whole-​house remodel or simply want to freshen up tired décor, Design Studio can make it happen. Owners Teri Koss and Catherine Cook have great taste, an eye for detail, impressive efficiency — and, most importantly, know how to make the most of your budget.
I was recently a guest in a home where they’d completed an addition/​remodel that included a new kitchen, family room, mud room and extra bedroom. The materials they selected — custom cabinetry, granite, hand-​hewn floors, etc. look amazing, but it’s the extras that really make a difference — pendant lights from Italy, wall niches that highlight display objects, a clever place for cookbooks, and a window seat that doubles as a library.
And since we’ll likely be selling our home soon, I was glad to learn they offer home restaging, as well as phone consultations.
