While my listed services highlight my expertise, I’m always open to conversations about unique opportunities. I’m particularly interested in adaptive reuse projects, and high-budget special projects that blend preservation and original character with modern functionality.  I'm also very interested in partnering in the automation space where tech enhances the home and business experience. ~ Kristina

"From Wasted Space to Destination Space"

five stars

"We had a large room that contained an old pool table that never got used, lots of bulletin boards on the wall, and other miscellaneous clutter. It was technically the biggest room in the building, yet it sat empty because it was also the ugliest. It lacked purpose, felt cavernous, and offered no reason to linger.

We brought Kristina in to reimagine the space, and the transformation has been remarkable. She infused it with color, soul, and story—elements we didn’t know were missing until we saw the results. She added murals that capture attention, layered in antiques and maps that spark conversation, and introduced thoughtful details that encourage residents to share their travel stories.

Now the room is not just beautiful—it’s magnetic. Residents gather here to people-watch, to swap memories, and to connect. What was once wasted square footage has become a vibrant, purposeful hub. The space feels like it belongs in a boutique resort: curated, engaging, and deeply memorable. We are getting so much more value and enjoyment out of this room than we ever imagined."

Creating Places that Feel like Possibility

Whether you’re buying a home, designing a business, or trying to stay better organized in your current space, you’re in the right place. I’m someone who understands that creating great spaces starts with the location, and unfolds through the psychology of space. I’m a realtor, placemaker, real estate agent, organizer, and business interior designer. I followed the work where it led me —starting in one discipline and finding myself drawn into the next.

If it’s your home, I help you create a space that supports your lifestyle and your values—one that stays clean and organized more effortlessly because it’s designed for how you actually live. Whether we’re staging it to sell, or reimagining it so you can love it more, I bring both logic and emotion into the design process.

If it’s your business—an Airbnb, bakery, boutique hotel, or salon—I design for your customer’s experience. I explore your brand’s personality and value proposition, and shape your environment into a place that draws people in, makes them feel something, and encourages them to snap photos, share online, and return again and again. As a placemaker, I help make your business unforgettable.  That is key.

In a world competing for attention, offline joy matters. Spaces should inspire—they should ground us, delight us, and give us something real to hold onto. That’s the thread running through everything I do: helping people experience something wonderful, whether in their living room or at a resort in a tropical location. Let's make it memorable.

Get quiet.  

how does a space make you feel?

The core of my work is how physical spaces influence human behavior, emotions, and well-being, resulting in overall life satisfaction. The human experience should always come first. I design spaces that are both stunning and practical, making people want to linger. Your needs and desires should be at the center of your home choice, home design AND functionality. 

Have you created an environment where you feel comfortable? Does it support your life and passions enhancing every day? Is your home a place you can go that evokes a sense of well being? From home purchase to design and organization; this is a wholistic approach to home acquisition and living.

Likewise, we are naturally drawn toward businesses that evoke a
feeling. I also craft branded interior environments in commercial spaces.
