Understanding that your home is your sanctuary.
Making your dreams come to life.
Using my skills to the best of my ability.
The satisfaction when it all comes together.
These are the driving forces behind SAVVY Design Studio, founded in 2021.
I am an Architect registered in Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia with over 20 years of experience in design and construction. I started in the industry with a Bachelor's degree in building science.
After working for several years in general contracting and construction management, I decided to pursue a Master's of Architecture and became a licensed architect in 2016. Throughout my career, I have worked on a wide variety of project types.
My favorite projects have always been homes, where I enjoy
putting myself in the client’s shoes to imagine their home
as the best that it can be.
I pride myself in my ability to create meaningful design, connect with my clients, and earn their trust.
Through my varied experience, I know the entire design and construction process intimately. As an Architect, I bring that knowledge to my clients as their resource and advocate.
When you work with me, we work together to create a vision
for your sanctuary and make it a reality.
Sincerely,
Kim Centrone

What Clients Are Saying...
★★★★★ "I had the pleasure of working with Ms. Kim Centrone on my recent home built design and construction, and the experience was nothing short of extraordinary. From the initial consultation to the final walk-through, Kim demonstrated an impressive blend of creativity, professionalism, and attention to detail.
One of the standout qualities of Kim is her ability to listen and truly understand the vision for the project, and make them possible in her design. I had a few ideas, but she took them to the next level by offering innovative solutions and design concepts that not only improved the aesthetics of the idea I had, but also enhanced its functionality.
Throughout the process, she was incredibly responsive, patient, and thorough in her communication. She is also very personable, and fun to work with. If there are any challenges along the way the project, she takes full ownership of it, and finds the best and most cost effective solution. The project stayed on schedule and within budget, and is absolutely beautiful!
She also helped me find an amazing Contractor, who delivered my house better then expected, which I am so grateful for, bc the actual construction of my house also was extremely pleasant!
If you’re looking for an architect who brings passion, expertise, and dedication to every project, I highly recommend Kim. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome of my home design and the entire project that she undertook.
I really look forward to working with her on future projects!"maps.app.goo.gl/hSeiP94Wku5nHXom9
★★★★★ "Kim was perfection, patient, talented and in addition to the AMAZING design of our entire first floor including an en-suite for our parents to move in with us, she was on point for the contractor and approvals. She took the time to coach us through the process and was with us during all reviews with the contractor and managing the final deliverables and with alignment of the budget. She was invaluable to our project and I cannot say enough great things about working with her and how much she was happy to allow us to lean on her and her experience. If we ever do another project, Kim at Savvy Design Studio is our first call."maps.app.goo.gl/asYJYrvVczpi7FK79
