Theresa Salazar carved out her path within the interior design space back in the early 1980s. Since then, she’s won numerous awards, been interviewed about her work, had projects published in magazines, and so much more.
It all started during her tenure as a student at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale. While attending, she worked with the campus architect and facilities planners to assist with the construction of the university. Across her thousands of projects, she worked with custom cabinetry manufacturers from Italy, Germany, the United States, and Canada.
Most importantly: she’s left her mark on the lives of thousands of families through her masterful design work. With over four decades of experience in the industry, your home could be in no better hands.

-Theresa Salazar
We cannot thank Theresa enough. The compliments about our kitchen cabinets keep on coming. “You have so much storage.” “I love the custom depth pantry.” “The spacing could not have been done any better.” We recommend her service and products anytime we can.
In fact, our neighbor a block over re-did their kitchen with her. As with any major remodel we were worried about quality, look and feel of new kitchen cabinets. We have seen other people’s paint start to chip and hardware start to fail.
Our family of 4, with kids ages 9 and 7, put the cabinets to the ultimate test during the 2020 stay at home/work from home pandemic orders. Success! The cabinets even continue to hold up to our sons soccer team and soccer families regular post game visits.
While the cabinets are fantastic, the service by Theresa is even better. She knows everyone and anyone to get the job done. Countertops, appliances, installation, design. she has a guy or gal for that. We liked everything so much we just had her design and install a new entertainment center.Thanks
Theresa helped me create a beautiful, very functional kitchen on a budget. She gathered my wish list and incorporated every one of them into her design. She designed a few different layout options that allowed me to choose what was best for functionality needs and my budget. She made several design suggestions I would have never thought of—but am so glad she did! She really has an eye for detail.
Theresa did an incredible job of coordinating contractors and keeping them on schedule. She met with them collectively to ensure they communicated and worked together well and then was in constant communication with them to ensure they met their target dates and keep the entire project right on schedule.
Remodel projects often become stressful due to delays, surprise added costs, or issues with contractors. Theresa made the entire experience fun!
Thank you so much for helping me create my dream kitchen!
There are few times when you can truly have your dreams come true. Working with Theresa to bring my dream kitchen to life has revitalized my home in ways I never thought possible. Not only was she incredibly kind, compassionate and sensitive to my needs as a home owner, but she is an incredible listener as well.
On top of that, she's really makes the process a ton of fun! She really empowered me to be my own designer, and the little flourishes that make my kitchen truly my own really come through now.
I cannot express my sincerest gratitude and appreciation for all her hard work enough.
Theresa is as devoted as she is passionate about her work, and it comes through in each and every interaction. Thank you so much Theresa and Kitchens Design & Interiors!
We've always dreamed of having a space uniquely our own within our home.
We always thought it impossible to achieve the specific aesthetic we wanted to achieve at a price we can afford.
Not only did Theresa bring our wildest aspirations for our home to life, but she did so in a way that was respectful of accommodating to our budget.
