Courses, planning tools, and design help from a kitchen designer of 20+ years.
Start with the coursesA quick hello
Kitchen and interior designer with over two decades of experience across every level of the industry. I help homeowners figure out what they want, design spaces that are as intelligent as they are beautiful, and navigate their projects with confidence.
But what you really need to know about me is that I genuinely care about you and your project. I want to help you make the most of your unique space and budget. I want you to live in a home that works seamlessly for you and your family and that knocks your socks off every time
you walk into the room.
Here's what I've learned in all that time: the projects that turn out beautifully are the ones where the homeowner understood what was happening. Not because they became experts — because somebody took the time to explain it. When you know what you're looking at, you ask sharper questions, you decide faster, and you end up with a kitchen that fits how you actually live.
That's what I'm here for. I design for people who want it handled, and I teach the ones who want to understand it themselves. Usually it's a bit of both.

Visit the site →Not from homeowners who learned to swing a hammer. From the ones who knew what they wanted, understood the process, knew which decisions were coming, and could tell a solid answer from a vague one.
That's a learnable skill.
So that's what I teach. Not how to build the kitchen — how to be a great client and a confident owner of your own project.

"I would not have been able to do this project without her. Danya has been such a major part of getting my project completed the way I envisioned. From the start, she helped me make the most of my space. When I had to make changes, she was right there helping me make decisions that solved problems without hurting the overall design."
Rebecca M.
"I was indecisive, overwhelmed and changed my mind often. Danya helped me nail down what I wanted and supported my decisions, all the while guiding me to a better design at every turn."
Russanna P.
"She was extremely patient and knowledgeable and insightful as we went through multiple renderings to get the perfect design. It is a true masterpiece — Danya is a real gem!"
