Design leader mentors next generation
A thoughtful, creative and detail-oriented designer, craftsman and mentor to young designers in the industry, Patrick Lavery, co-owner of Troo Designs, is known for taking extra time with customers to thoroughly educate them regarding all aspects of a given project. His business is a thriving hub within the kitchen and bath design industry in Austin, TX, and the firm boasts a number of testimonials from past clients to show for the years of excellent design work.
A graduate of Utah State University, Lavery has been a member of the kitchen and bath design community for almost two decades. Prior to owning his own firm, Lavery honed his design skills at Davis Kitchens, Kiva Kitchen and Bath and UB Kitchens.
This longtime and established designer does more than create great designs, however. He also takes pride in sharing his knowledge with other up-and-coming designers. He is widely regarded as a generous mentor, providing guidance to several industry individuals, including previous KBDN Innovator Christy Bowen of Twelve Stones Designs, LLC. In fact, Lavery recently came to the rescue of other designers whose cabinet supply was unexpectedly interrupted. He remains eager to teach young designers about the craft, and is very open to speaking with and educating other members of the design community.
