Diana is highly sought after for her work in remodeling an existing space. She will help you consider diverse options on everything from custom architectural details, millwork, and fireplaces to hard surfaces, lighting, and plumbing. Her relationships with contractors, designer showrooms and suppliers can help you select just what you had in mind, or, consider creative new directions as well.

Aging-in-Place

Diana loves helping clients stay in their home as they age, just as she did for her own mother. She can help modify your home for personal mobility and ease of function, so that you can remain autonomous in the home you are deeply attached to and familar with.

New Construction

Diana has designed interiors from the original blueprints, partnering with the general contractor and numerous tradespeople, all the way through home construction. Contractors appreciate her well-communicated plans to help them execute her interior vision. She is also well versed in sustainable design and green practices*.

Kitchen & Bathroom Design

Kitchens and bathrooms are the most expensive rooms to remodel, and yet these two areas will yield the most return for your investment. Because of the architectural details involved in these spaces, and the need to make good decisions on the first go-round, it is imperative to have a professional designer oversee these remodel projects. It will help ensure that resources are not wasted and you get both the functionality and aesthetic experience you are seeking.

Full Furnishings

Diana is adept at overseeing the acquisition of everything that isn’t attached to the home, and specializes in furniture selection and creating custom-designed pieces for hard-to-fit spaces. She has a rich array of original, artistic resources from which to select lighting, window treatments, rugs, artwork, linens, and decorative accessories, as well.

Downsizing

Additionally, Diana has helped couples and individuals move from sprawling family homes to condominiums or townhomes by applying efficiencies to take maximum advantage of a lesser footprint. She can help you envision the freedom you might enjoy in less space as you consider purchase options, as well.

*Sustainable design and green building can be incorporated into any project by leveraging the right contractors and suppliers.

“We have worked with Diana over the last 18 months on a remodel that involved not only the usual furniture, carpets and painting, but also a number of custom design elements such as an art glass wall and a metal sculptural wall. These elements simply could not have happened without Diana’s knowledge of local fabricators and her ability to translate our ideas into actual designs. The results were everything we could have hoped for. On the more straightforward aspects of the remodel, Diana provided just the right balance of incorporating our ideas and preferences with her design expertise. Indeed, my only complaint about her is that when she did insist on a particular selection even in the face of our reluctance, she was invariable absolutely correct in her recommendation! It’s been a pleasure working with Diana, and we could not be happier with the results.”

“Diana was instrumental in taking our convoluted and mismatched furniture and replacing it with tasteful, elegant furnishing which has really transformed our house into a beautifully furnished, cozy home. We love our home so much more since she has helped us put our ‘look’ together – a casual chic. Mixing and matching fabrics, choosing wall color, helping find unique furniture pieces, lamps and accessories that accent each other. All this was done in a very organized and scheduled time frame with the end product looking as though it was furniture collected through time (not all purchased at once). We have had nothing but very positive comments from friends and family on how beautiful it all looks.”

- Amy and Luke Fouke

“We found Diana to be an excellent consultant for our interior design/decorating needs. She listened carefully to our unique requirements and desires before proceeding with the design process where she was mindful of our budget and our personal taste. We worked as a team with Diana on three projects, which included our home and guesthouse, both on Lopez Island and our Downtown Seattle high-rise condo. The resulting synergistic design solutions very successfully reflected our needs including our firm requirements that all three be wheel chair friendly for Marcie.”

- David and Marcie Moody

“The best most thorough designer we have ever used! Diana listened to our needs and our price range and found us exactly what worked for us and worked for our house. Helped with our kitchen, paint colors, carpets and lamps for various rooms in our home. Completely happy!”

-Mike and Gayla

“As first-time homeowners, Diana was an integral part of our kitchen renovation. My husband and I had a general vision for our space, but knew nothing about how to execute it. From our first meeting, Diana arrived prepared, listened to our needs (and wants), guided us through the design process, and managed our overall project. Her design of our space perfectly reflects the original vision! The result is a kitchen that ‘wows’ every time we enter the room.”

- Sarah and Chris Koehn

“I just loved the partnership with Diana of DC Designs! Diana’s approach is very thoughtful and collaborative, so that the final product feels exactly right. Diana is very professional and sets expectations and meets target on budget, deliverables and dates. Right from the start, by seeking input on my likes and dislikes, Diana shaped a vision and helped me articulate my wishes so that in the end it was viola! – the perfect bijoux pied-a-terre I was looking for. I look forward to collaborating on another project soon…”

- Anne Marie Griffin

“We have worked with Diana for over two years on three different rooms in our home. What immediately drew us to Diana was her ability to listen to our differing views of ‘comfort’ and ‘style’ and deliver creative options that appealed to us both. Diana respected our need to incorporate artwork and furniture ‘treasures’ in her designs while using her talents with color, lighting and fabrics to create a personalized and updated look to our home. We could not be happier with the results!”

- Kaaren and Doug Clifford

“Diana Cutler, with DC Designs, is a talented designer who beautifully renovated our condominium and has done similar work for others in our Seattle high rise. Diana is accessible, responsive, an excellent communicator with all involved and has fabulous taste. She is gifted in all areas of design and we cannot recommend her highly enough.”
