> I absolutely loved working with Kim. She really took the time to understand my style and helped me express myself in my home. Her attention to detail was phenomenal. She made the entire renovation an amazing experience. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.

  - Description: Lead Decorator, Kim Bakaluk I loved designing this Rustic meets Modern/Contemporary inspired Chef's Kitchen. The design and color scheme was based on natural elements, primarily wood and stone. The wall that stood between the kitchen and dining room was taken down. A rustic beam was installed over the transition of the Kitchen and Dining Room where the wall stood to match with the design of the rest of the home. The two tone cabinets paired with white counter tops were a must to add some visual…

  - Description: Lead Decorator / Kim Bakaluk What a transformation! We gutted the entire bathroom right down to the studs and started with the install of a new bathtub / shower combo and tile surround. A glass enclosure was added to elevate the space. We kept the tile consistent throughout to give the illusion of the bathroom being larger and added luxurious heated flooring. We choose a light grey paint to compliment the color scheme to keep it feeling light and airy. The existing bathroom vanity was painted bl…

  - Description: Lead Decorator / Kim Bakaluk My goal was to marry the opposing styles of rustic and modern/traditional, as well as work with some existing furniture items, while making it a kid and pet friendly space. The dark walnut hardwood flooring option complimented the rustic element of the wood beams throughout the home. We chose the Benjamin Moore Revere Pewter paint color to reflect the natural elements portion of the rustic theme. I incorporated the stunning contemporary area rug and glass waterfall c…

  - Description: We staged this listing for Sage Real Estate. It was a completely renovated home top to bottom and the Investor needed to sell. After it being on the market for over 3 months with hardly any showings, we not only increased the amount of showings, but it sold within 2 weeks of our staging job being complete! It pays to stage! Had the Investor staged this property from the start he would not have had to incur an additional 3 months of carrying costs prior to the sale of the home.

We relocated the attic access to a spare room and chose a very light, subtle color of blue paint to create a relaxing atmosphere. We replaced the closet doors and hardware for an updated look and installed an Italian Crystal Chandelier to add to th…
