Kristy Egan Design

Kristy is a delight to work with. She's creative, knowledgeable and very professional. She responded to questions quickly and was very flexible in helping us solve problems. And she was unfailingly pleasant and patient with us while we changed our minds!

Kristy did a fantastic job of taking our space and matching them with our ideas in a totally usable space. She developed 3 different options quickly and with only minor revisions, we were set for our remodel. It was a great way to make sure we did a smart remodel!

Kristy offered two potential plans for my sad, tiny kitchen--one that would have improved it, and one completely changed my conception of the space, and made it functional beyond my dreams. (It involved moving a doorway and sacrificing a dark eat-in nook, which, though cute, took up too much space for how often it was used.) While I couldn't afford to implement her design for some years, when I did, it was clearly a brilliant solution, which my architect, cabinet-maker and contractor all appreciated. And I get to use it every day!

Kristy Egan has designed two major bathroom renovations in my home during the last five years. In both instances, Kristy's work created value far in excess of her fee. She did so by first taking the time to understand both my personal taste and the character of my 105-year old home. In addition to designing precisely to my taste, Kristy also optimized the use of the existing space without requiring any expensive reconstruction or reconfiguration of the existing plumbing. I also relied on Kristy's extensive knowledge and experience in the selection of plumbing fixtures, cabinetry and stone to save the many hours I otherwise would have spent on research and shopping. Lacking knowledge of contractors in the area, I also asked Kristy to recommend several contractors that would meet my standard of professionalism and quality. I selected one of her recommendations and was very pleased with the result. Once construction started, Kristy diligently monitored the progress of the renovations and ensured that the work was done exactly to her original design. When the work was completed, I realized that Kristy's contribution had been the difference between a merely satisfactory project and a truly outstanding one that greatly enhanced the value of my home.

I worked with Kristy two years ago when we gutted nearly our entire 1957 multi-level home. Kristy designed the kitchen, dining room, front and back entryways, both a main and master bathroom, laundry room, guest room, lower level family room and office. Not only that, she was invaluable in helping me select tiles, granite, wood, cabinet hardware, lighting, furniture and paint colors. The spaces that Kristy designed for us are spectacular. We love every aspect of her work. When she sees a space, she can instantly visualize a variety of ways to enhance it. She clearly sees how the feel and the flow of each room connects to the other rooms in the home. She carefully listened to my ideas, yet even more importantly, guided me to envision possibilities I hadn't considered. She is concerned with detail and quality. Her choices for paint colors, wood, tiles, hardware, etc. were impeccable. Most importantly, Kristy is a delightful person, and was so much fun to work with. I looked forward to each of our meetings. Our contractor really enjoyed working with Kristy, as well, which is so important. She is professional, precise, strategic and immensely creative.

Smart, capable and creative - this is who Kristy Egan is. I have worked with her on three different homes and every time she exceeds expectation.

We have used Kristy Egan's design services for 3 major remodeling projects over the past 10 years. She has come up with practical, innovative, economical and creative solutions for repurposing our existing spaces, making our home an extremely functional, comfortable and enjoyable place to live.

I have worked with Kristy for twenty years now. She is one of the top talents in our market. Her designs are creative, functional, and beautiful. Clients and builders alike enjoy working with Kristy.

I could not be more pleased with the work that Kristy Egan did for us. She did a complete re-model of our kitchen and master bath suite. Kristy worked hand in hand with us on every detail, mindful of our budget and the style that I had envisioned it to be upon completion. I can honestly say that there is nothing that I would have done differently, she knows what she is doing and had all of our bases covered. I will definitely use Kristy Egan again and would highly recommend her.

I first employed Kristy Egan to re-design my 1950's rambler kitchen. She listened carefully to how our family planned to use the space, and came up with a thoughtful, creative and functional plan that met all of our needs. She introduced us to excellent resources for cabinets, lighting, plumbing, and ultimately led us to the contractor we chose as well. Kristy gives wonderful attention to detail, and remains involved in the project from start to finish. She is the ultimate professional. Subsequently, due to the amazing outcome of our kitchen and our absolute satisfaction with every part of her work, I used her to re-design our 3 bathrooms and our laundry room...need I say more?!

Kristy has been a Kitchen/Bath consultant to my architecture practice for many years. She is a skilled and creative space planner who can think through many alternatives very quickly. She has a very good feeling for what will work best and knows when she's found the right solution. Kristy never fails to provide maximum return for dollars invested. My clients are consistently pleased with her space-planning, her directness and her good taste in products, lighting and surface finishes.

Kristy has designed two kitchens for me in two different houses; one about 20 years ago and another last year. She is especially good at identifying needs and wants and working them into the design. She is a great and practical problem solver with an eye for detail. I loved my last kitchen and love the second one even more. They both have changed my life for the better.
