LMNTL DSGN is different because we can meet and support you no matter where you are in your project.  

Interior Design Services - We provide a full suite of interior and residential design services including room layout and design, space planning, material selection, color selection and more. 

Project Consulting - Many of my clients came to me with a crystal clear vision with no idea where to start.  If you are unclear about the process or not sure where to start - I can work with you to create a concrete plan and next steps to achieve your goals - saving you time and money. 

Owner's Representative - I work with you to design the space you want and then represent you through the entire build process to make sure what you want is what you get! On your behalf, I interface with the trades and contractors to make sure your vision comes to life and the project stays on track.

Kristen Hancock, Associate ASID, is the President and Principal of LMNTL DSGN. Kristen was the Director of Operations for the premier design-build firm in New York City, The Renovated Home. Kristen returned to her hometown, Pittsburgh, PA, where she was the Lead Designer and Operations Manager for Primrose Homes. She has been the creative force behind some of Pittsburgh's most prestigious homes, including Pittsburgh Magazine’s Ultimate Home 2015.

Negotiating client expectations and what contractors can produce is the foundation of Kristen's background and one of the key principles of LMNTL DSGN. She understands what you want done and how it can be executed. Kristen prides herself on being the interpreter of your vision to the final space.

**★★★★★ — wrightl21, Aug. 2020**

> As a builder/developer, I've had the pleasure of working with Kristen on several occasions. As a fan of her work, I have walked through her many of projects I am not involved in simply because it's fun to see her talent come to life.
>
> Kristen has the unique ability to not only design homes, but run the construction projects too. She demands perfection and the final product is always amazing.
>
> When a friend came to me with an ultra-rare "prairie home" vision, I knew there was only one person who could pull it off for them. The home is being built now and it looks incredible. LMNTL DSGN absolutely nailed it.

**★★★★★ — TH Trade Design, Jan. 2018**

> Kristen is the absolute best! She is creative and extremely knowledgeable. We always enjoy working with Kristen and love seeing her brilliant designs. She is a top notch designer and is amazing to work with!

**★★★★★ — Janet & Ron Montelaro, March 2017**

> Kristin Hancock of LMNTL Design is knowledgeable about every aspect of construction and design.  She worked closely and attentively with us as our home was being built to ensure that everything we required was done professionally and with the highest quality of craftsmanship.  After construction, she was responsible for designing the interiors and completely furnishing our new home.  Every visitor exclaims that this was money "well spent."  We are delighted with the results and would not hesitate to recommend LMNTL to anyone who is looking for quality construction and design.

**★★★★★ — userinpgh, Jan. 2017**

> My husband and I have been working with Kristen at LMNTL Design, in conjunction with DJBeam Construction, for a year. Bear with me, there is a bit of background to this story.
>
> In late December 2015, our builder, Primrose Homes, went out of business. They'd partially excavated for our home when they halted operations entirely, leaving us with no one working on our home and no options.
>
> LMNTL DSGN stepped up to take on this project. We were genuinely worried that no one would take it on, since it had been started by Primrose and legal issues were on the horizon. LMNTL didn't hesitate.
>
> In TEN MONTHS, Kristen has built our home. She functions as project manager, budget guru, and designer. She took our project literally from a hole in the ground to a beautiful, fully functioning home in ten months within our budget and made the entire process seamless for us. We negotiated a few problems with subs, an issue here and there with suppliers or materials, and she always professionally presented us with options, costs, and knowledgeable advice. When we had a problem with a subcontractor presenting a bid in a timely fashion, she didn't hesitate to help us find a new one that she felt would be a better fit for our expectations. She happily worked with subs that we brought into the project, such as a home automation group and a pool installer.
>
> As a project manager, Kristen works with the utmost integrity and always placed us first. She never fails to return a phone call or an email, and checked with us frequently (including weekly progress updates) to be sure our budget was on track and our expectations were met. As a budget guru, she didn't shy away from telling us that something was out of reach, but also worked to provide us with options that fit.  As a designer, she took the time to get to know our sons to help create bedrooms that reflect who they are (not easy with teenage boys) and created a house that works for our entire family. With her design advice, our home has come alive.
>
> Kristen and LMNTL DSGN has earned my very highest recommendation.

**★★★★★ — Trilogy Cabinets & Design, Nov. 2016**

> We've worked with Kristen on many large projects. She is an excellent designer with great ideas. We look forward to many more projects with her in the future!
