Meet Regina
Space planning is the passion. Kitchens are the specialty.

“Space planning is my passion. I also design kitchens (15 years), offer several cabinet lines, and installation.” That is how Regina Steverson describes her own work, and it's the plainest way to put it: before a single cabinet door or tile sample gets picked, Regina starts with how a room is actually used, where people stand, where light falls, and what's getting in the way.

Based in Charleston, South Carolina, Regina has run Space Planning & Kitchen Design by Regina for more than a decade, working directly with homeowners across the Lowcountry on everything from full kitchen renovations to smaller space-planning consults. She carries multiple cabinet lines and coordinates installation, so the plan she draws is the plan that gets built.

Her work spans classic Charleston-peninsula cottages, newer construction on Daniel Island, and everything in between, always centered on the same idea: a well-planned space feels effortless, even when the renovation behind it wasn't simple.

What Regina Handles

One designer, plan to finished room.

From a first sketch of the floor plan to the last cabinet pull, here is what working with Regina covers.

Space Planning
Layout and flow consulting for kitchens, baths, and living spaces, figuring out what should move, open up, or get reworked before any construction starts.
Kitchen Design
Full kitchen design, Regina's core specialty for 15 years, from cabinetry and counters to island layout and storage planning.
Bath Design
Bathroom layout and finish selection, applying the same space-first approach used in her kitchen work.
Cabinet Lines
Regina carries several cabinet lines and helps clients choose the right one for their budget and style, rather than a single house brand.
Installation Coordination
Coordination through installation, so the design intent carries all the way to the finished room.

How We'll Work Together

A clear process, plan before product.

01

Walkthrough & Conversation

Regina walks the space with you, talks through how you actually use it, and where the friction is.

02

Space Plan

A layout plan comes first, before cabinets or finishes, so every later decision supports how the room will work.

03

Cabinetry & Finishes

Selection from several cabinet lines and finish options to match your budget and style.

04

Installation

Regina coordinates through installation, so the finished room matches the plan.

Why Clients Choose Regina

A few honest reasons, no invented statistics.

Space planning first

Regina starts with how a room is used and how people move through it, not with a cabinet catalog.

Decade-plus specialty

15 years of kitchen design work and 14+ years running her own space planning practice in Charleston.

Direct, personal service

You work with Regina herself throughout the project, not a rotating team.

Options, not one brand

Several cabinet lines and installation coordination, so the plan she draws is the plan that gets built.

Who This Is For

If any of this sounds like you.

01

Your kitchen layout doesn't work

Storage is in the wrong place, the flow is awkward, or the room just doesn't fit how you actually cook and gather.

02

You're renovating an older Charleston-area home

You want a designer who understands the quirks of older Lowcountry construction, not a cookie-cutter plan.

03

You're building new and want the layout right

New construction gives you a blank slate, and Regina can help make sure the kitchen and living spaces are planned well from the start.

04

You want one person to see it through

You'd rather work directly with a single experienced designer from first sketch through installation.

Let's talk about your space.

No pressure, no scripts. Just a direct conversation about what isn't working and what could.

Frequently Asked

Common questions.

Do you only do kitchens, or space planning too?

Both, and they're connected. Space planning is Regina's core passion and the starting point for most projects; kitchen design has been her specific focus for 15 years, with bath design and general room layout work as well.

What areas do you serve?

Regina is based in Charleston, South Carolina, and works across the Lowcountry, including West Ashley, Mount Pleasant, and Daniel Island. She has also taken on project work outside the area, including in Atlanta.

Do you carry your own cabinet line?

No. Regina offers several cabinet lines and helps you choose the one that fits your budget and style, rather than steering you toward a single house brand.

Do you handle installation?

Regina coordinates installation as part of the project, so the plan and finishes she designs carry through to the finished room.

I'm building new construction, is that different?

New construction gives more flexibility since there's no existing layout to work around, but the same space-planning approach applies, figuring out flow and function before finishes are chosen.

How experienced is Regina?

She has run Space Planning & Kitchen Design by Regina for more than a decade, with 15 years specifically in kitchen design, and holds a 5.0 average rating across 9 reviews on Houzz.

Can you work with an older Charleston home?

Yes, older Lowcountry homes come with their own quirks, and Regina's local experience includes exactly that kind of renovation work, such as a 1930s cottage kitchen project in West Ashley.

What should I expect from a first conversation?

A direct walkthrough of your space and a conversation about what isn't working and what you want out of the room, no pressure and no scripted pitch.

How do I get started?
