About Katharine Mast

As an NESAD-certified Interior Designer, my portfolio includes 20+ yrs of successful residential and commercial projects. I am especially well known for creating highly personal and authentic design solutions, with an eye for the details that transform the ordinary into the extraordinary. MY SPECIALTIES: I love creating, taking on new projects, and problem solving. To each project I take on, I bring an innate talent for aesthetics and a passion for creating beautiful, architecturally sensitive spaces that authentically reflect my clients’ tastes, lifestyles, and budgets. Past projects have included: Residential & Commercial Design Interior Architecture Interior Decoration New Construction, Additions & Built-Ins Space Planning Furniture Design Real Estate Staging Event Decoration MY CALLING: I am an artist. With a degree in fine art, during my college years I lived in Florence for a semester, studying art history, painting, and drawing. Simply put, I see life through the lens of an artist’s sensitivity and unique viewpoint. My passion in life is creating beauty… To me, the creation of beauty is the creation of joy. Expressing and bringing out joy in others motivates me. Deeply intuitive, I also have a gift for connecting with people and bring high levels of listening skills and interpersonal understanding to all my relationships. I am driven to nurture extraordinary relationships and this has led to involvement in my local community. In recent years I have held a series of leadership roles with my local chapter of BNI and was recently nominated to serve on the Concord Historic Districts Commission. WHAT SURPRISES PEOPLE ABOUT ME: I spend a great deal of time getting dirty and dusty in barns, caring for my horses. I also play the banjo and have achieved a high level of training in martial arts. Traveling worldwide is a passion for me, and beyond the typical traveler, I immerse myself in the people, land, and cultures of the places I visit.
