Since childhood Norman has been fascinated by art, fashion, architecture and design. A 1993 graduate of Bradley Academy (Art Institute of York), his career has been a diverse and fulfilling journey. Specializing in custom residential interiors, he also has vast experience in visual merchandising, store planning, model home and commercial design. Over the past 20 years Norman has worked with a wide range of clients, listening intently to their personal needs and desires, always staying focused on achieving spectacular results. Customer service, problem solving and attention to detail is paramount. He brings an intense passion, hearty enthusiasm and sensitive spirit to every project. His light-hearted, common sense approach aims to relax and educate the client through the often overwhelming design process. Since 2006, Norman has been a senior designer and project manager with the firm Nathan Mayo & Associates in Reading, PA. In his free time Norman enjoys exploring the urban landscape to photograph sculpture, architecture and gardens. This feeds his creativity and informs his visual vocabulary. He also regularly attends trade shows, lectures, galleries and show houses to stay informed and inspired. "Normally, everyone talks about the horrors of a kitchen renovation. In our case, however, the process was relatively pain free and the results more than we could have hoped for. A very large part of the success of our project was due to the efforts of Norman Kohl and his cadre of expert craftspeople. It was, indeed, a pleasure to work with Norman and his team. Norman was professional, patient, accommodating and most importantly, he never lost his sense of humor. Moreover, Norman was sensitive to our taste and to our vision of our ideal kitchen. Accordingly, I would recommend Norman and his work without reservation." -Janice McGill Schiffman "Design it right the first time, this is the reason we chose Norman... From start to finish, Norman managed the multitude of details, the layout, the colors, furnishings, cabinets, carpets and curtains. This was a major project for us. He was as excited about it as we were. This was evident from the very beginning. We now have an amazing kitchen and the perfect plans for the coordinating living room and dining room. We can now walk into our home and feel like it is truly ours... When friends and family ask us, 'Was it worth it?' We always answer, 'Absolutely!' " -Elizabeth Bentz "When we relocated our daughter's bedroom we called Norm to help us with the expansion of our master bedroom and main bath. Norm not only developed a floor plan and color scheme, he also patiently shopped with us for furniture, tile, lighting and plumbing fixtures. We are very grateful for his time, talent and willingness to work within our budget. Without his guidance, we would still be deciding where to put the shower."
