If you're looking to update your entryway, it's important to know the interior design trends to avoid that can consume valuable space and compromise your living experience.

The Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) has featured our own NYC Interior Designer Kati in their Alumni Video Series this year. An honor - "Accepted with much gratitude for the top notch education I received. " she gushes. In this video, I discussed how my family's careers in general contracting and construction led me to interior design. I even used to draw floor plans as a little girl! After SCAD, my career took me in all kinds of different directions and to different experiences. From designing commercial hospitals to working in big architecture firms, I was learning so much- but I felt like something was lacking. I wasn't able to really impact the human experience in the way I wanted. This led me into residential work, which is what I do today. My education at SCAD really has been such a great foundation for my career. All of the principles of form, shape, and proportion that I studied are things I use every day. I spoke a bit about how my LEED accreditation and style have been so important in how I approach my clients' projects- and the education from SCAD really has been the greatest gift.

This year I was asked to be a "Style Spotter" for High Point Market. A true honor of top interior designers and taste-makers around the country. 2015 Style Spotters include Michelle Jennings Wiebe, Style Spotter “Emeritus,” Studio M; Arianne Bellizaire, Inspired to Style; Kati Curtis, Kati Curtis Design; Beth Dotolo, Pulp Design Studios; Lori Gilder, Interior Makeovers Inc.; Patti Johnson, Patti Johnson Interiors; Courtney Lake, Monogram Décor; Jonathan Legate, Jonathan Legate Interior Consultation; and Leslie Hendrix Wood, Hadley Court. Such a great group, and I was truly humbled to be amongst these top talents in our industry. At Spring market, 1 top trend I identified was a resurgence of all things feminine. Trend #1 The Feminine Edge This trend, the rise of the feminine, feels like a breath of fresh air to me. And after the long, strong staying power of the contemporary look, with its hard lines and lack of detail, I’m excited to see things loosening up. The feminine edge, with its flowing lines, lovely curves and intricate details, signifies a return to the meaningful and sentimental in design. This is a trend towards a softening of the elements—and it’s showing up across all the elements: color, texture, and in mixes of materials - we’re finding them to be just…prettier. They’re more sparkly, shiny and delicate, and they give us a feeling of things being so much softer and easier—this is a trend that brings a gentle feeling,...

Big news here at Kati Curtis Design! We're thrilled to begin 2015 with a 14 page spread in Luxe Magazine Winter 2015 edition of our recently completed interior design project in Rumson, New Jersey. One of our favorite projects to date is this 6,000 square foot arts and crafts style home overlooking the Navesink river. It has 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms and an adjacent boathouse that was a blast to design. Long time clients of KCD finally decided to leave the City for the burbs and called on us to re-imagine a tired, '90's style home into a bright, airy full time residence where their growing family could develop roots. We're so excited to finally get to share this stunning home with you all! More photos will be up on our site soon, but in the meantime you'll have to go out and grab a LUXE copy for yourself! xo, KC PS: If you've been thinking about bringing us on to design your dream home- now is the time!

It's a designer's dream to be able to do anything we want...Often we're constrained by our clients' tastes and preferences, but sometimes... we have a chance to throw caution to the wind and make a grand personal statement! This is exactly what happened when I was chosen to design a table for the New York Design Center's Dining By Design exhibit March 20th - 24th in NYC. Since I basically live at the NYDC, I didn't have to think very hard about what I wanted to use in my design. And with an upcoming visit to London, I could scope out the Timorous Beasties showroom in person. It's a great honor to have been selected to design a table for DIFFA in conjunction with the New York Design Center. The Design Industries Foundation Fighting Aids, Dining By Design annual event is held in conjunction with the Architectural Digest Home Design Show and is a unique event that showcases design luminaries in a feast for the senses. All proceeds from this four day event, which includes a Cocktails By Design preview party on March 20th, a Gala Dinner on March 24th and public viewing from March 21st through March 23rd, benefit DIFFA and their quest to fight HIV/AIDS. Since this is such a unique event it called for finding some extremely unique finishes and pieces to include in my 'Boy|Girl' design theme. Timorous Beasties fulfilled that beyond my expectations and I'm thrilled to give you a...
