Beyond Design, Inc.

"I thoroughly enjoyed working with Kathy because she was so much fun and very knowledgeable.  She's very outgoing and immediately put me to rest that we were going to work as a team.  She spent a good deal of time getting to know me and my tastes and I'm thrilled with the results.  She made this previously insurmountable task seem so easy."

 

Design and color consultation - May 2013, Alexandria, VA

 

 

"This was the second time I used Kathy and Beyond Design and it went just as well as the first time.  She came up with design ideas and her crew basically gave my entire downstairs a much needed facelift. New paint, new carpet, refinished old hardwood floors, took down old wood paneling, replaced all the window shades, built some new shelves and seating, etc.  The "etc." is a long list of little things that made all the difference in giving the rooms a completely new, finished feeling!   Her crew is wonderful - honest, solid, genuinely nice people who do a first-rate job."

"My wife and I have had many discussions about what projects we wished to redecorate and update our house interior.  We would do the usual on line searches and then go to some stores to shop around.  We watched TV showsto get ideas and talked with family and friends.  We always got so far and then could not continue either because the tasks got too complicated or the coordination got too confusing.  We choose to look for an interior decorator with experience in working with people like us who could provide a sounding board for our ideas and who could actually perform the work."

"Kathy was a delight to work with from start to finish.  It was comforting to work with her because she gave us a direction to look when picking out samples and we loved her suggestions.  Her team is just fabulous.  Every single one of them was personable and experts in their craft whether it was putting up the crown molding or installing the kitchen backsplash.  They NEVER rushed the jobs.  They let me be a part of the whole process and I learned so much. They became more than a design team to me and became my friends as well."

Design consultation and furniture staging - March 2013, Leesburg, VA

 

 

"I needed new rugs for my home and had been looking for at least two years.  In one visit to my home Kathy Tufts was able to come up with the perfect designed rugs that completed my home.  She also moved pictures and furniture around, which gave my living room and family room a more balanced look.  It was completely amazing the transformation."

 

Flooring and design consultation - March 2013, Ashburn, VA

 

 

"FANTASTIC!  The owner and the 2 employees we met were extremely professional and talented.  Definitely added value to our home.  Helped us solve some long-term decorating dilemmas.  Even my husband noticed how much larger and warmer the rooms looked.  She used and integrated all our existing stuff and did not ask us to buy additional pieces, which we appreciate.  And they were kind and careful around our pets and child."

 

Interior painting and home staging - February 2013, McLean, VA

 

 

"I decided to go with Kathy's company because she impressed me so much with the attention to detail and the high standards she expects from anyone who works for her.  Kathy is a professional interior designer, and having her help choosing the paint colors was important to me, as it was a big task to pick every color in the house.  After work on painting had begun, I decided to refinish all the hardwood floors in the house, and after getting several estimates, I again chose Beyond Design to do the work.  The painters had begun their prep work on the ceilings and walls by that time, and I was very impressed with the quality of their work.  They were fixing just about every little flaw, crack, nail pop, etc. that could be fixed.  The decision to go with Kathy's company for the hardwood floor refinishing was easy - I already knew that she hired people who cared about the quality of their work."
