Kathleen Newhouse Interior Design, ASID

I've had the pleasure of working with Kathleen on many design projects. She is the hardest working and most professional designer I've worked with in my career. Anyone would be lucky to use her on a design project!

It is with great pleasure we recommend Kathleen Newhouse of Kathleen Newhouse Interiors. We found her on Houzz, interviewed her via a Zoom call, and knew she was the right person to help us with decorating our new construction home in The Tribute. As we began this process, much of our communication was via phone and email as we were in the midst of the pandemic. Kathleen made sure that she understood how we planned to live and began sending us pictures of furniture and floor covering recommendations to insure her design ideas and our personal design preferences were in sync. She communicated constantly. Kathleen was great to work with and it was immediately clear that she brought a high degree of creativity and passion to our project. She was very responsive to our questions and requests, but also offered instructive guidance around our design choices. Kathleen assisted us with furniture, rugs, accessories and window coverings. Our collaboration enabled us to push beyond our comfort zone and create a new space that is truly different from our previous home. Her attention to detail and design acumen helped us achieve a style and result that we are proud of and enjoy sharing with family and friends. We loved working with Kathleen and we are happy to give her our wholehearted endorsement. Sincerely, Frontaine and Tyrone Freeman

Kathleen did a truly amazing work transforming our formal living, formal dining and family room. We love, love our amazing new look of the three rooms now. She selected beautiful furniture for all the three rooms all within our price range. And when we needed to hire professionals, she made it super easy for us. She has the best crew for painting, roller shades, etc Finally for accessories like rugs, chandeliers, wall art, decor items she went truly above and beyond to get them all within our price range at the best quality and beautiful designs. She made sure she bridged gaps between the design preferences of my husband and I. She had our budget and design preferences in mind and gave us the best products and best services.I am very thankful for finding Kathleen on Houzz. My husband and I will definitely hire Kathleen for all our future projects.

Kathleen worked with me to design/decorate my family room, dining area, and master bedroom. She was so helpful and her expertise made all the difference. The contractors that she recommended were professional and she oversaw all of the installation. Everything was completed according to our planned timeline. The result is fantastic and I am very pleased. Highly recommend Kathleen!

I have never used an interior designer before and was a little nervous about it. However, I am so pleased I decided to hire Kathleen! Her expertise and knowledge of her craft kept me focused and on budget. Even though I wasn't under a strict timeline, she was efficient with our time and was able to help me complete my kitchen/dining/family room remodel quickly. I also utilized her local pros to help me with the labor. Highly recommend her, her professionalism and her great sense of humor!

My experience with Kathleen was outstanding. She saved me a tremendous amount of time going through sample books for my furniture and drapery requests by having specific ideas for me to review. She gave me alternatives when making choices. She wanted to hear my feedback and pointed out the pros and cons in making color and furniture styles. If I asked her questions, she promptly responded on each occasion. Her professional manner and knowledge of design will have me requesting additional help on future projects.
