As cliché as it sounds, Kristen transformed our house into a home. She took what little I *knew* I wanted and picked pieces that turned our living room into something out of a magazine.

Phenomenal staff and they do excellent work! Kristen is always a pleasure to work with!
As cliché as it sounds, Kristen transformed our house into a home. She took what little I *knew* I wanted and picked pieces that turned our living room into something out of a magazine. Not only does it look amazing, but the comfort level is also incredible! We used to spend time in the living room watching our shows, but since the redo we have been finding new reasons to hang out in there altogether as a family. Even our toddler grandchildren are enjoying the new places to snuggle up with us! I cannot recommend KP Designs enough, and can’t wait to work with her again in the future.

Thrilled you are enjoying your "new" living space! We certainly loved the transformation and working with you and your family, again! Thank you!

Two years after we completed our kitchen renovation with the assistance of KP Designs, we hired them again to help with both of our bathrooms. We are so pleased with Kristen's ability to know our taste and help us pick out designs that were classy and fun. The team at KP Designs help make your renovation smooth and stress free. It's so worth working with them. Best off all we have two beautifully remodeled bathrooms! 7/1/25

*********
When we originally started our Kitchen / Den remodel we did not have an Interior Designer. I had never used one before and wasn't even sure where to start.
Our contractor kindly offered to introduce us to Kristen at KP Designs to help with the counter top selections and a couple light fixtures. Once we met her and realized the services she could offer us, we hired her to pull everything together from the blinds, couch, entertainment center, rug, lamps, bar stools, end tables, artwork etc.
Kristen and the team at KP Designs were a pleasure to work with and very professional. We most definitely will use the again on our next project! 5/2023

I found KP Designs from an internet search and selected them after interviewing four different firms. Lead designer and owner, Kristen executed on my whole-home design (paint, lighting, furnishings and art) on time and in-budget. She is an effective project manager, has high standards for quality of work and was able to provide counsel on form and function for our spaces. Months later we are still loving it!

Kristen and her team transformed my old dining room into a beautiful retreat for me. We had our home remodeled and I had the old dining room as a sitting room, but it wasn't working for me. I called Kristen and she came over with some great ideas. She recommended a desk area and a little sitting area for me. She even added wallpaper to the walls. I can't say enough about this room. It is my little lady cave. I spend so much time sitting at my desk or reading on the super comfortable chair Kristen added to the space. I highly recommend Kristen and her Decorating Den team for any project you are thinking about.
