KOSKOVICH DESIGN GROUP

Patty Koskovich has been involved in residential interior design since 1991, and runs Koskovich Design Group out of Anacortes. As a seasoned designer, she knows timelessness is key, but is thrilled that the current trend embraces color.

“Living near Puget Sound, I always think of coastal blues. Mixing blues from palest hue to darkest is classic,” she says. “I prefer to paint the room in a neutral color such as a creamy white, sand, or soft gray, then infuse color.”

Koskovich suggests using rich navies (her favorite is Sherwin Williams Naval 6244) for kitchen cabinets and islands, ikat patterned fabric upholstery in different blue hues, and white and blue draperies to complete the color scheme. Anacortes, koskovichdesign.com
