Warren Smith - Vice President & Designer
I am a Certified Master Kitchen & Bath Designer (CMKBD) and a Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist (CAPS). I grew up in Kennewick and graduated from Kamiakin High School. My wife, Connie, and I have 2 daughters, Amy and Shelley.
My career in the kitchen and bath industry started in 1975 while attending the local community college. I began as a cabinet installer and moved into design & sales. I took my first formal kitchen design training in 1981 and began remodeling kitchens & baths with Spectrum Inc. My father, Marvin Smith, retired from his career as a health physicist and opened Kitchen ReStylers in 1988. He retired again in 1991, when my wife, Connie and I purchased the business from him, renaming it Kitchen & Bath ReStylers.

Darryl Vaughn - Designer
I have been working in interior design since 1993, but my love for it began much earlier. While I am now a Certified Interior Custom Decorator, I began as a child by designing, decorating, and furnishing the homes of Barbie dolls. I attended college to pursue to Fine Arts education but soon realized that architecture and design was my real passion. Since then, I have gathered a variety of experience, owned several businesses, and fallen in love with kitchen design. I really enjoy the interplay of space, form, and color that goes on during the design process to create the perfect space for the client. One of my greatest joys is knowing my client goes home everyday and genuinely loves the look and feel of their space.
