Rooms meant to be lived in.
Riverfront Residence, Chattanooga, Tennessee
Kathy Patton has been designing houses in Chattanooga and across the South since 1995.
Explore the portfolioI grew up in a family where the table was always set for one more, and I learned early what makes a room worth sitting in. Thirty years later the method has not changed. I listen for what feels true to the people who live there, then build the room around it.
Good proportion. Materials that age well. The patience to let a house come together slowly, so that when it is finished it looks like it has always been that way.
Full Service Design Studio
Every project runs through Kathy, from the first walk-through to the last box unpacked, with trade-only resources and the same skilled trades she has worked with for decades.
- Full-service designWhole houses, new and renovated, drawn and specified in full, then installed by us.
- KitchensCabinetry, stone and hardware planned around the way the room is actually cooked in.
- BathsPrimary suites, guest baths and powder rooms: calm to look at, easy to keep.
- BedroomsThe primary bedroom treated as a room in its own right, not the one left until last.
- CommercialOffices and studios that hold up to daily use and say something to the people who walk in.
- Styling & virtual designStyling for listings and photography, and drawn schemes for clients further afield.
