Classic Kitchens Design Studio

I could not be happier with the remodel of my kitchen. This small, but EXCEPTIONALLY, brilliant and talented team made all my design dreams come true. They are genuine professionals. They do what everyone wants to experience in a remodel project. They listen, advise, communicate, deliver. Every expectation was exceeded. Now THAT'S a success story!

My experience with Classic Kitchens was absolutely wonderful. Lisa Otterness is amazing. She brought my vision to life and made sure it was even better than I imagined. Everyone is very professional and a pleasure to work with. Can’t ask for more than that!

We hired Classic Kitchen to design a total redo of our kitchen. Lisa designed not only a beautiful kitchen but one that is very functional. Lisa provided things in the design that I had not even thought of making the kitchen more functional They worked within our timeframe and delivered the cabinets and installed the cabinets in a timely manner. The installer was wonderful and very professional. Lisa worked great with our designer who helped with colors and other finishing ideas. The whole Classic Kitchen team was wonderful to work with and provided great service. I would highly recommend them

Our expectations in finding a good, working relationship with a competent and creative designer for our kitchen remodel were not only met, but exceeded when we were introduced to Classic Kitchen Design Studio. We enjoyed working with all the professionals at the studio. Lisa’s abilities to combine our wants and expressed needs with the realities available given our space were reflective of a competent, experienced designer. She was skilled in coordinating practical, pleasing solutions to our requests without compromising design principles. Lisa is an expert at creating visually appealing, unique and functional spaces. Lisa thoughtfully recommended competent, skillful contractors whom she felt were a good match for us in work ethic and expectations of quality outcomes. Lisa responded in a timely fashion to our inquiries and those of our contractors for clarification, design modifications and resources for items needed to complete our remodel. We confidently recommend Lisa Otterness and Classic Kitchen Design Studio.

Lisa was a pleasure to work with and a true professional. Her knowledge on the craft of cabinetry combined with her years of design experience made her the best consultant to help design our kitchen. Lisa considered all of the constraints and opportunities when designing our kitchen, making it so much easier for us to accomplish our goal. I would highly recommend Lisa to my friends and colleagues.

We couldn't be happier with this contractor! We used Classic Kitchens for a kitchen and master bath reno in our 1920s home. The job was particularly challenging due to the age and unique construction of our house. We had a number of constraints on space and the placement of mechanicals. We spent about four months working with a different, local cabinet maker trying to find creative solutions for our kitchen. When he continued to stall and talk about the challenges and problems with the job, we decided to explore other options. We wondered into Classic Kitchens on a Saturday morning, and thank goodness we did! With a very quick turn around, Classic Kitchens found solutions not problems! We worked with Lisa, in a very collaborative effort, to achieve an outstanding result. Lisa is knowledgeable, creative, prompt, responsive and fun. She gives great input and direction while allowing the client to incorporate their vision and ideas. They were also very conscious of our budget and went above and beyond to help us save where possible using their Brookhaven cabinet line to it's fullest potential. The cabinets themselves are great -- very solid, functional and fluid with a beautiful finish. We will definitely use Classic Kitchens again and recommend these wonderful women to everyone we know. We absolutely love the end result. Thanks ladies!

I have worked with Pam Vernon on projects that we have shared together over the past 12 years. She is truly a professional and a master with space planning and design. She is thoughtful and creative and listens to the wants and needs of her clients. Our projects together have turned out beautiful and the clients were very happy with their new kitchens.

My house is an arts and crafts style stucco whose original kitchen had limited storage, insufficient counter-space, an awkward lay-out and was terribly hard on the eyes. I learned about Classic Kitchens when I hired Lynn Lemons Construction to make a change. He introduced me to Pam Vernon, a principal with Classic Kitchens, and with her team's help ended up with a remarkable re-do. In very quick order, Pam came up with a design that gave me the functionality that I needed and the style that I wanted within my budget. She worked within the constraints of an existing footprint and maximized every feature to turn the kitchen into a spacious, attractive addition to the house. Classic Kitchens supplied the design, the cabinetry, counter-top and a custom made high-top butcher block table. I also got advice on lighting fixtures and appliance choices. Nearly a year later, I love my kitchen as much as I did on the day it was finished!

I have worked with Classic Kitchens on two residential projects. Pam Vernon is professional, detailed and will do whatever is necessary to make sure the project comes out perfectly. It was a pleasure working with her and her team. I would enlist her services if I ever do another house remodel.

Pamela was a joy to work with, she is a real professional with great attention to detail. Pam took time to listen and understand our design and function needs. She incorporated all of our requests and gave us expert advice. Also, we are very happy with the contractor that she recommended for our project; his work was impeccable. Our new kitchen is even better than we could have dreamed possible!

Pam of Classic Kitchens and her assistant Carolina were delightful to work with. They listened to what we wanted and executed it with precision. Pam thought of every minute detail and was able to offer various decorating options and advice. We used a contractor who frequently works with Classic Kitchens and he was fabulous. We did this project, full kitchen and laundry room remodel, a year ago and have been thrilled with the quality of the materials and workmanship. If I had to do it again, I would not change a thing!
