Michael Bird is the founder and principal of Adirondack Design. The firm was established in 1986 with the ideal of preserving, enhancing, and continuing the tradition of Adirondack architecture which began over a century ago. We believe indigenous Adirondack architecture, sometimes referred to as "The Great Camp Style", is one which harmonizes with the wilderness better than any other style. Although the term "Adirondack architecture" is synonymous with the Adirondack region of New York, it is a style which can easily be adapted to any area.

Hire Kristen Hardman when you're serious about selling your home. As an award-winning, credentialed design professional who has been featured on HGTV, Kristen will share her expertise of seeing your property through potential buyers' eyes and create, often in just two hours, a checklist of detailed suggestions to transform your home into "The One" people choose to buy. Kristen also knows that sellers are loathe to invest more than is necessary to get their homes sold; most ideas for editing, re-arranging, organizing and accessorizing require minimal additional expense. And did you know that the cost of home staging services is also tax-deductible? In consideration not just of the current competitive real estate market but also of the potential return of tens of thousands of dollars on an investment of just a few hundred dollars -- as well as carrying costs until your property does finally sell -- we encourage you to schedule your consultation soon.

Create beauty, give joy. My personal motto, if you will. My clients know what they like -- and what they
don't. Together we explore, editing and refining, until I hear these words: "That's it! I love it!" Services
may be as simple as a one-time consultation, such as livening up an office, or as extensive as
designing your home's entire interior. I invite you to visit the KB Hardman Interiors page of my
website to view a Before & After portfolio of recent projects. Credentials include having been featured in a full-length
HGTV show and receiving an award for sensitive historic preservation from Adirondack Architectural
Heritage. To quote John Seymour, author of Forgotten Crafts, "We must fill our homes and our lives with
beautiful things again." I'd love to help.

Homeownership in the Adirondacks is being priced out of reach for local working families. ACHT was created to keep a selection of Adirondack Park homes affordable for them to purchase. Through an initiative by Senator Betty Little, the State budgeted $1 Million to be used by an “Adirondack Community Housing Trust” to reduce the cost of home purchases for families making up to 120% of area median income. Resale limitations on the property require that future sales of these homes be controlled by ACHT so that they will be passed on to other income-qualified families at affordable prices. ACHT is incorporated as an independent not-for-profit corporation with board members drawn from various communities of the Park.

Selling and/or buying a home is a major transition in life. Whether this transition is pre-determined or last minute I can help plan, the sometimes daunting, relocation process. As a Professional Organizer, I would like to offer you this advice: 1) Be prepared before your move. Don't waste time and money moving things you no longer want. 2) Be organized from the start. Plan ahead and know where everything will go in your new home and/or business. 3) Be pro-active in marketing your home. Remember that you want to sell your home's assets, not your stuff. De-cluttering has a positive impact on potential buyers. 4) Know it is okay to ask for help. Please feel free to call or email with any questions.
