“We offer our clients the unique opportunity to design their own customized lighting and accessories by selecting amazing prints from top designers like Diane Kappa. Diane’s prints are wonderfully versatile; they look beautiful in a wide range of colors and on every product we make. Our customers love Diane’s prints because they can design a classical look or create a more modern feel just by changing the colors.”
– Friday Shamblen, Alluminare

Once Upon a Tutu
“At HeadsUp Design we bring together the best artists, designers, engineers and others to produce contemporary giftware. Diane’s silk pillow designs originally caught my eye. I enjoy working with her because we can easily brainstorm together and work through concepts. We started with a quite broad brief and she was very helpful in narrowing it down to a few relevant concepts and then to a very good final design. We look forward to working with her again.”
- Dan Koval, Owner, HeadsUp Design Co.
“Diane successfully translates my design vision into repeated, printable artwork. She understands my customer and always makes recommendations for patterns when appropriate. She is my go-to textile designer.”
- Sandy Glaze owner of Sin in Linen
“From the first moment I saw Diane’s designs I was immediately struck by her talent and her humbleness. I love them and comparing her designs to her contemporaries, Diane’s just have the edge. I have worked with Diane on a couple of projects, it was the ultimate pleasure as she grasped what I was searching for right from the beginning.”
- Catherine Dickens owner of Catherine’s Vineyard Cottages
“Diane’s pillows and wall hangings are a perfect complement to my home decor. I love her patterns and color palettes! Her links to the natural environment evoke a Scandinavian feel, that she couples with rich colors and fresh designs. Diane is super talented and I wish her continued success in the future.”
- Jennifer Dell-Ernstrom – customer
