We can't say enough good things about Catherine French Design ("CFD"). The team at CFD was professional, thorough, knowledgable, and very creative in helping to re-do a guest bedroom, a master bedroom, an attached screened porch, and a free-standing Ramada which we recently built. Starting with an initial consult, followed by a design review (known as 'Spaghetti Day' by CFD when you help narrow down colors, fabrics, furnishings, etc.), to final layout approval, and installation, each step made u

Cat and company are consummate professionals, which is not to say that they are at all formal or not fun. They are the MOST fun! Cat and her employees have always been patient with me, always been prepared for meetings, and always gone above and beyond. Perhaps most importantly, Cat has NAILED every selection in my home, from paint colors to furniture to art installation--sometimes pushing me JUST a little past my comfort zone, but then hitting it out of the park given my eclectic style. When co

I completely and highly recommend Cat and her team. They did the entire design for the first floor of my home and it is stunning! I finally have the perfect space to entertain and spend time with my family. The development process was wonderful, the team really listened to what I wanted for my space and put together color and furniture design that really fits my personality and lifestyle. I can’t wait to contract her team to get my second floor redesigned. I find myself spending all my time dow

I am "design challenged." Regardless of how hard I try, I can't tell how a little piece of cloth will translate on a large sofa. Finding Cat French was a wonderful gift. She worked with me over a period of three months to transform my ho-hum home into a comfortable and welcoming space. The result was unexpected and a delight. I now live in a place that is peaceful and playful. My family and friends love the change. Working with Cat was easy. She was always prompt and prepared for our mee

I worked with her a few years ago on “freshening” up my house. I felt like she was talented as an interior designer but we had difficulty in the end communicating about my budget. I mistakenly used the word “hope” when talking about budget- I “hope” to keep this under x amount. She didn’t stay under that budget and didn’t inform me that she was going to go over that amount which I would have appreciated. I take responsibility for my part and will be careful about using the word “hope” again. She

We interviewed several design firms before selecting a designer to work with on our renovations. Catherine French and her associate joined me at my home to discuss the projects my husband and I had in mind. During our initial phone call I discussed a modest budget of $30-35k, which she bumped up to $60k during our in-home meeting. The majority of the in-home meeting was reviewing their current project and how they keep clients aware of the project details. This meeting cost us $150. We met othe

Working with Catherine French and her team was an absolute dream. They helped to redesign my living room and sunroom. Their consultation and process was so smooth -- they really listened to what our style/tastes are, as well as the realities of our life (2 small kids!), and designed spaces for us that really work for us. The whole process was really transparent and ordering/selecting the pieces for the spaces was so easy. We may build or buy a new house soon and we will *definitely* be using CFD
