Our Approach
Main Line Kitchen Design is a unique business model! We are a group of skilled Kitchen Designers each with many years of experience planning kitchens around the Delaware Valley. And we are cabinet dealers for eight nationally distributed cabinet lines much like traditional showrooms. We explain why you need a kitchen designer below:

Meet The Senior Kitchen Design Staff
at Main Line Kitchen Design
We love what we do and you’ll see that expressed in the kitchen we create together.
Julie Meyer, Paul’s wife and our marketing director, helps make the advertising and business decisions that propel our expanding company. In fact, the company itself was her idea! Julie edits the Main Line Kitchen Design blog, and is a big reason why our blog is visited by over 1000 people each day and ranked as one of the top kitchen design blogs in the world.
Julie mans our kitchens on the Ardmore Library Kitchen Tour and represents us at industry events. People love Julie’s smile and her laugh is infectious. And since Julie isn’t a kitchen designer she is a great intermediary between the design world, our customers, and our manufacturers.
Ed Sossich and our owner Paul McAlary have worked together at many different showrooms over 20 plus years. Ed refers to the pair as Batman and Robin although who is who is up for debate. Ed is quick with a joke and many of his customers find his jovial approach to the design process makes their decision making easier. Ask Ed about some of the celebrities he’s worked with like Charles Barkley, or David Morse. He’s a great story teller.
Jeremy, like our President Paul McAlary, became a kitchen designer after being a general contractor for many years. Coming from the construction side of kitchen renovations gives designers a wealth of knowledge that all kitchen designers learn but few truly grasp like the contractors who performed and supervised the work.
This is why Jeremy takes on some of our more complex kitchen renovations. Knowing the beam requirements for removing load bearing walls, or how ductwork or plumbing stacks can be rerouted, simplifies the design process. Jeremy’s easy going personality and attention to detail make working with him a pleasure.
While attending college and graduate school Juliet worked in home improvement and installed sales. After completing a Masters in Elementary Education Juliet joined Main Line Kitchen Design as an Office Administrator training to become one of our kitchen designers.
She now splits her time between administrative duties, helping design and order other designers’ kitchens and working on her own kitchen designs with her customers. She also manages our TicTok account so any of the great videos you may have watched were filmed and posted by Juliet!
After graduating from LaSalle University with a degree in public relations, Camilla worked in hotel management until Main Line Kitchen Design persuaded her to change careers and to pursue a career in kitchen design. Presently working as Main Line Kitchen Design’s Office Administrator, Camilla places orders, manages our CRM system, assists our designers in their duties, and trains as a kitchen designer.
Camilla also manages several of our social media accounts. And being an experienced photographer, she takes many of the kitchen photos seen on Main Line Kitchen Design’s website, and social media pages.

While attending college and then getting her masters in , Juliet began working in the home improvement industry.

Camilla, an experienced photographer, also photographs many of the final kitchen photos seen on Main Line Kitchen Design’s Houzz page.
There are no kitchen design training programs as extensive and as detailed as Main Line Kitchen Design’s, and Camilla’s work ethic, intelligence, and outgoing personality are a perfect fit for our profession. Camilla is our company’s future, and our Senior Designers appreciate how lucky we were to have her join our company.
Appointment Information
Unlike full showrooms open to the general public, Main Line Kitchen Design works only by appointment. Appointments can be scheduled days, nights, and weekends either in your home or in our office and selection center. During office appointments we display clients kitchens on flat screen TV’s and help them look through 100’s of sample door styles, almost a thousand sample finish blocks and sample kitchen cabinets. During home visits and Zoom meetings we make design changes showing you what your kitchen can look like while you are sitting in the very room being renovated. This is more convenient for our customers and it eliminates the expense of staffing and maintaining a larger space that is open to walk in traffic. We pass the significant savings on to our customers and so we sell cabinetry for less than other dealers, even home centers like Lowes and The Home Depot.
We believe that since a web site like Houzz.com has over half a million kitchen photos, any advantage to going to a full kitchen showroom with full kitchen displays has been lost. Almost no customer today will ever get to see a display kitchen in their door style and finish because there are just too many possibilities. And the design of each kitchen is unique anyway. Our design process allows us to spend more time working on our customer’s designs. This is what we enjoy most about our business and it is what makes the difference between an average and a great kitchen design. Among the kitchen cabinet lines we design with and sell are Jim Bishop, Fabuwood, Timberlake, Brighton, and Wellsford Fine Custom Cabinetry. Links to most of our lines can be found at the bottom of this and all of our web pages. Simply click on the logos of each cabinet line to reach their web site.
