Cathy Kincaid’s enviable sense of color and intricate design detail has established her as one of the country’s top designers and an editorial favorite whose work is published internationally. For more than 30 years, Kincaid has designed houses for her clients that are as individual as they are. A recipient of multiple Institute of Classical Architecture & Art John Staub Awards, Kincaid is highly respected for her commitment to restoring old houses and filling them with traditionally stylish antiques and furnishings. Cathy has also designed rooms in the prestigious Kips Bay Decorator Show Houses in New York and Dallas and the Flower magazine show house in Atlanta.

Educated at Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, Texas, Kincaid began her career with a Bachelor’s degree in Interior Design. Kincaid’s post-graduate work with the prestigious firm of Minton & Corley in Fort Worth further schooled her in technique and best practices. Upon moving to Dallas, Texas in 1976, she apprenticed with John Aston Perkins, the legendary designer for some of the most influential families of Texas. In 1978 Kincaid established a style all her own with the creation of Cathy Kincaid Interiors, Ltd. Kincaid’s work has since been featured in several books, including Farrow & Ball: The Art of Color and D. Porthault Linens; and multiple times in Veranda magazine’s book series.

In fall 2019 Rizzoli published Kincaid’s first book, The Well-Adorned Home. Cathy Kincaid Memorable Rooms: Artisanal Collaborations is her second eponymous book with Rizzoli.
