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.
