Kim was a pleasure to work with. She is pleasant, easygoing and a dedicated hard worker who holds herself to high standards. Kim has a great eye and loves what she does, as is evident in the beautiful, livable spaces she creates. She truly listens to her clients and has a wealth of design experience to call upon to bring the collaborative design to successful completion. **★★★★★ — bostonfern, July 2014** > Last summer I saw a sunroom vignette in the window at Simon Pearce that caught my eye done by Charette Interior Design. I loved the color palette as well as the small details. I immediately contacted Kim for a color consultation as I wanted a similar pallete for the exterior paint project for my mid century modern house in the Hollywood Hills. Although Kim is a noted interior designer, I thought she would understand my plight as I had quickly learned there are well over 50 shades of gray (more like 500). Without sounding overly dramatic, grays are simply overwhelming with so many options. Kim fully understood what I wanted and we chose a green based dark charcoal gray for the siding & stucco with a neutral lighter cool gray for the carport interior. The pairing is perfect! > > I was also struggling with a zillion accent colors for the exterior doors off my carport that are quite visible from the street. I consulted with Kim again who immediately recognized the issue I was having and cut to the chase. To create a cohesive indoor/outdoor flow, we stuck with doing a green accent. Kim encouraged me to think beyond the typical apple green and explore more chartreusey tones. I appreciated her pushing me to think beyond my comfort zone whilst still creating an elegant yet distinctive palate. > > Kim's true understanding of color and her patience were key for me in the process. I highly recommend her talents! **★★★★★ — ca02014, March 2014** > Kim was a true delight to partner with. Her level of professionalism combined with her contemporary yet cozy sense of style create spaces that are livable luxury. I would whole-heartedly recommend Kim for anything from refurbishing a single room to designing the interiors of either an entire business or residence. ## Selected projects - [Entry - Darien, CT](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/entry-darien-ct-pj-vj~687061) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Dining Room - Darien, CT](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/dining-room-darien-ct-pj-vj~687040) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Kitchen - Darien, CT](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-darien-ct-pj-vj~324848) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Living Room - Darien, CT](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/living-room-darien-ct-pj-vj~324819) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Living Room - Greenwich, CT](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/living-room-greenwich-ct-pj-vj~471372) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Family Room - New Canaan, CT](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/family-room-new-canaan-ct-pj-vj~323449) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Dining Room - Greenwich, CT](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/dining-room-greenwich-ct-pj-vj~471403) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Family Room - Darien, CT](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/family-room-darien-ct-pj-vj~534573) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Butler's Pantry - Darien, CT](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/butler-s-pantry-darien-ct-pj-vj~687068) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Guest Bathroom - Westwood, CA](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/guest-bathroom-westwood-ca-pj-vj~328280) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Sun Room - Darien, CT](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sun-room-darien-ct-pj-vj~323426) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Hall - Greenwich, CT](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hall-greenwich-ct-pj-vj~687119) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Game Room - Darien, CT](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/game-room-darien-ct-pj-vj~687072) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 [See all 13 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/charette-interior-design-ltd-pfvwus-pf~1325832296) ## Ideabooks - [Project inspiration photos](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/67358965/list/project-inspiration-photos) — 27 ideas [See all 1 ideabook](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/charetteid) ## Community Q&A **Q: I love these draperies!
