Designs by Patrice

Patrice’s passion is residential kitchen/bath design. She is also a landscape designer, and enjoys being an Owner's Rep during the construction if requested by a client. She is highly creative and can design anything for a home remodel. She loves space planning and finding the best use of space for a project. She began design over 25 years ago, and has been chosen by clients over architects and other designers. She taught kitchen design for over 2 years recently for a national refacing franchise. She starts with efficient space planning and expert knowledge of practical materials, and builds on that to design and specify beautiful and functional spaces, always working with her client’s budget and preferences. Highly technical training and experience in architecture, interior design, kitchen and bath design, landscape design, structural engineering, and project management gives Patrice a unique background. She also has hands-on construction experience. Patrice is an kitchen, bath, and landscape specialist and she works on small projects to entire homes, as remodels or new construction, including out-door rooms and kitchens, plants, hardscaping, and lighting. She also loves to add curb appeal to a home through exterior upgrades, and to finish interior spaces with beautiful paint colors, furniture, artwork, lighting, and accessories. Patrice works with clients in different ways, depending on the type of project and design needs, and can do short-term consulting to full design and project management. As an Owner's Rep she can represent you as the owner during your project--complete design through construction, if requested. This is especially valuable to those Owners who might not live here locally in the Coachella Valley full-time and wish to have work done while they are not here, or for that Owner who wants professional management of their project and professional feedback on the quality of the contractor work and their adherence to design. Part of the design happens during the construction, such as details of tile layout, etc.. She can visit the site daily or as needed, relay status and send photos, help with selection of contractors and give feedback on their estimates, give feedback to the Owner's for contractor payment, and do the final job walks. Patrice also does simple permit drawing packages (not including any engineering details), if needed. Please call Patrice to discuss your project.
