"Kara was pivotal in supporting me to create my front entrance. It’s the first impression of a home and it felt overwhelming to make decisions because I was so worried to make a regretful one.
Kara was excellent at listening to my desires and asking valuable questions to help me discern what was most important for me.
I loved that she had experience with different options to provide pros and cons and could help me envision an end result.
My front entrance has blown me away and every time someone walks in our home, they compliment the tiles, style and look.
I would recommend Kara to anyone who is looking for a designer. She was absolutely incredible to work with."

"I was renovating my home and with living at the lake, I wanted to create a fresh lake like environment. I was struggling with the overall idea of how to do that. I called Kara as I knew of her amazing ability in interior design. She was instrumental in guiding me and enhancing my renovation experience and the over results. That was 10 yrs ago and I still love my home. Thank you Kara."

Client Experiences
"From our initial meeting and through the building process, Kara was focused and professional. She showed a real care and commitment to the details in each space. Our project was a house addition, attached garage, and the entire exterior of a 1970’s house which had the original interior recently renovated. Kara worked with our local businesses and brought us the best options to choose from which combined our style and budget, with practicality in mind. In this day of so many choices, Kara guided us to a cohesive, yet distinct design that not only blends with our existing home but is timeless. Our house is now our home from the inside to the outside. We have truly beautiful spaces that we look forward to sharing with family and friends for our lifetime."
