How fortunate we were to have Kim guiding the remodel of the interior of our home near Durango, CO. My wife and I have worked with other designers in the past and none of them came close to Kim’s professionalism, efficiency, project management, design skills and knowledge of local vendors and contractors. Very attentive to our wants yet not afraid to let us know when we were heading off the rails. Well respected by vendors and contractors alike. A real pleasure to get to know and work with. Thank you Kim.

We are so thankful Kim agreed to help transform our “problem home”. Several years ago we purchased an older cabin style home. Due to it’s wooded location, several architectural design flaws & an over abundance of wood throughout it’s interior we’ve lived in a dark house 24/7. During recent months Kim has successfully brought a welcomed abundance of light into our home thru numerous clever lighting solutions & exceptionally wise decor choices. Prior to Kim’s amazingly affordable solutions we felt a costly remodel was the only way we’d ever remedy the absence of light in our home. Kim’s a delightful, down to earth lady who’s a true pleasure to work with. Even my husband looks forward working with her on our interior design projects! As he says, “ she has the talent & ability to IMMEDIATELY solve problems in very practical & pleasing ways.” Thank you Kim for making our “brightening up” & redecorating projects very affordable, rewarding easy & fun for us!

We hired Kim to help us choose interior and exterior finishes including paint, stain, stucco, stone, sinks, faucets, flooring, countertops, back splash, lighting, and furniture. She also provided assistance with floorplan changes. Kim is a good listener and easy to work with. Her expertise and knowledge of the local suppliers helped us immensely. In addition, Kim provided a good communication link with the builder.

I’ve had the opportunity to work with Kim on a few different projects and she’s amazing at what she does. She takes the time to truly correlate her designs to the individual customer and their tastes. Kim has great instincts, a keen eye for detail and truly cares about her clients.
You can take heart that if you hire Kim & Candent Design the process will be an enjoyable one and the result will be everything you wanted it to be.

Kim was a tremendous help with all aspects of building our new home. Her knowledge and guidance from start to finish was outstanding and I couldn't have made all the choices and decisions without her expertise. She was respectful of our budget and lead me in the right direction with all the options available. She is a true professional and a joy to work with!!

We called Kim to help us with a remodel of our kitchen and master bath. The challenge was... in spite of living in a log home, we like contemporary design. Kim understood immediately what we would like. With all of the new materials coming out, Kim was able to guide us in a direction that resulted in something even better than we imagined.
Of course, final design is most important. But what we truly loved about working with Kim was her organization and attention to detail. She was always on time, pencil in hand, and always did what she said she was going to do. The crews she suggested we work with were top notch. It was an enjoyable experience from beginning to end; something that is all too rare in construction.
Add to all this, we really liked her. If we ever do another project, she will be our first call.

Kim was extreme helpful during the construction phase of our townhouse. With us not being in Durango,she was our eyes and ears during this phase of construction. Once our townhouse was completed, she was extra helpful in giving us decorating ideas. At all times she was efficient and professional.

We have worked with Kim on two completed remodeling projects. She has great design, lighting, and materials expertise. Kim is easy to work with, friendly, and has been professional with every aspect of our projects. She has added value, making our living spaces much nicer than they would have been without her assistance. We rely on her good taste and knowledge. We recommend her without reservation.

This is the first home that we built start to finish. Kim was amazing to work with! She was a liaison between us and our builder, ensuring that our vision came to life. She is very knowledgeable in all aspects of the building process, has a great eye for detail, and extra knowledge in lighting. I would definitely recommend her!

We recently did a kitchen remodel and used Kim to help with design and materials. I have worked with KIm on previous home projects and have always been so happy with our results. I get quickly overwhelmed if I have too many choices, so Kim does the work for me by listening to everyone's perspective and ideas and then narrowing it down to just a few quality choices. Somehow she manages to pick a few options that makes everyone happy! Her costs are reasonable, she is always timely and responsive, and we are once again thrilled with our result.

My husband and I had never undertaken a project of this scope, much less, out of state. Kim was knowledgeable (really knowledgeable!) about everything from light fixtures to selecting stone for the fireplaces and how they should be built. She made herself available at all times and was a dream to have as a source, advisor and "hand holder." I would highly recommend Kim Eisner for every facet of design.

We decided to do a kitchen remodel, but had no idea where to start, so we called Kim. She immediately narrowed our focus and design thoughts to exactly what we were thinking. Then, when it came time to materials selection, she recognized the difficulties associated with the "blizzard of choices" out there, and again narrowed our focus to the right materials. She deftly steered us away from things we initially thought would work to utterly better choices (backsplash tile in particular). Technically, Kim really knew how to get the project rolling, and worked seamlessly with the general contractor and cabinet supplier we had already chosen.
