Hi! I'm Karen...
I believe interior design is a tool for shaping our homes, families and the world. Because home is about meaningful connections and making moments more memorable....You see, I know first hand about how intentional design not only brings you a sense of peace, calm and gratitude, but helps everyone feel comfortable & cared for. And when we feel cared for, we care for others.
....and here's why:
20 years ago our tiny, old farm house wasn't supporting our family and helping us connect with what matters most and I could not find reliable interior design solutions that made sense or supported our values & narrative without returning to college to demystify interior design myself. Figuring it all out was expensive and time consuming but my family's future became my focus.
The interior renovation & redesign that followed not only transformed our home but also our lives.
In the busyness, overload & unpredictability of the world we live in today, I believe in that kind of change.
If you want to design a space that inspires life, creates memories & everyone feels like they belong while stewarding your resources well so you can put your best foot forward each day, you're in the right place. Our world needs more of that.
Creating your signature aesthetic at home should be easy & accessible for everyone - that's why I do design differently and offer design services that are an expression of my philosophy that home is a sanctuary to be stewarded well.
If you're interested in seeing how I do design differently and invent design plans, just send me an email and I'd be happy to walk you through it.
Karen is a wife, mother of 4 adult children, a fur baby named "Bella Grace" and grammy of 2 littles. She is a formally educated, award winning interior designer with years of trial and error experience and has created a collaborative framework to simplify inventing personalized luxury interior design solutions that was once reserved only for the few.
Interior design is not a one size fits all or 'run-of-the-mill' solution because no vision or person is the same. Everyone begins their project with different needs, opinions, expectations and budgets and inventing your signature design plan can be time consuming, cost prohibitive and without design safety features - downright nefarious! Therefore, Karen has created a hybrid approach for everyday folks who would like to make wise design choices, step outside the usual and steward their project well while designing a home that is personal, timeless and profoundly inspirational.
