Kitchen Designer in Richland, WA
A kitchen renovation in Richland, Washington is one of the highest-return home investments you can make — but only when the design decisions are made thoughtfully. Layout changes that don’t account for how the space is actually used, material choices made from a showroom without considering maintenance, and cabinetry ordered without precise planning all create problems that are expensive to fix after construction begins.
D. Marie Interiors provides kitchen design services to homeowners in Richland and throughout the Tri-Cities region. Our team brings over 25 years of combined interior design and remodeling experience, with a practical focus on kitchens that work as well as they look.
Space Planning
Kitchen Layout & Space Planning
We start with how you actually use your kitchen — traffic patterns, workflow, how the kitchen connects to adjacent rooms, where the friction points are. Smart layout decisions made at the design stage are exponentially cheaper than layout corrections after installation.
Cabinetry
Cabinet Design & Selection
Cabinetry determines more of your kitchen’s look and function than any other element. We design configurations that match how you store and access things, select door styles and finishes that fit the design direction, and coordinate specifications to make sure the build matches the intent.
Surfaces
Countertops & Materials
Countertop and surface selection has to account for more than aesthetics. Durability, maintenance requirements, how materials age, and how they interact with cabinets and flooring all factor in. We help you select materials you’ll still love in ten years — not just on installation day.
Tile Work
Backsplash & Tile
Tile selection is where personality enters a kitchen design. We guide you through pattern, scale, material, and installation details like grout color and layout direction — making sure tile decisions reinforce the overall design rather than conflicting with it.
Lighting
Lighting Design
Well-planned lighting makes a kitchen more functional and more beautiful. We incorporate task lighting, ambient lighting, and accent fixtures into the design from the start, so the finished kitchen works at every hour of the day.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find a good kitchen designer in Richland, WA?
Look for a designer with real remodeling knowledge — not just aesthetic training. The best kitchen designers understand construction sequencing, budget tradeoffs, and the practical implications of material choices in real households. Ask to see past kitchen projects and talk to past clients if possible.
What does a kitchen designer charge in Richland?
An initial consultation for layout and material direction typically runs a few hundred dollars. Full design services through project completion are typically priced as a flat project fee or percentage of the remodel budget. We’re transparent about costs before any engagement.
How long does a kitchen remodel take in the Tri-Cities area?
A typical kitchen remodel in Richland takes 6–12 weeks for construction once all materials are ordered and delivered. Planning and ordering lead times — especially for custom cabinetry — add 8–12 weeks before construction begins. Budget 4–6 months from design start to project completion.
Can D. Marie Interiors help with just kitchen design, not construction?
Yes — we offer design-only services with layouts, material specifications, and drawings that any qualified contractor can execute. Many clients hire us for design and manage their own contractor relationships.
Does D. Marie Interiors serve the Tri-Cities area?
Yes — we serve Richland, Kennewick, Pasco, and the broader Tri-Cities region, as well as Central Washington including Yakima, Wenatchee, and Ellensburg.
