design / package

Sometimes it takes a professional eye to help figure out design dilemmas.

Rather than spending hours agonizing over paint colours, kitchen selections, or even how to arrange furniture and hang art, let me help. I offer a three hour in-home meeting to provide you with a professional opinion and concrete direction to carry your project forward. The Design Package is a great way to get a practical plan to create a home that is functional, beautiful, and comforting.

Telephone Interview

We’ll schedule a call so I can find out more about your space, what’s working for you, and what you would like to accomplish during our time together

Review of Photos

I’ll suggest some photos for you to take and send through email. These will be reviewed and considered so that I can come prepared and ready for our session.

3-Hour in-Home Meeting

When I visit your home, we’ll analyze your space and develop a specific plan that works for your lifestyle. This can include furniture layout, colour choices, renovations, and selections. I will work with what you have, as well as suggest exciting new possibilities.

Swatches and Samples

You will then be able to review a collection of designer-access-only samples that have been carefully curated for your home based on our discussion and review of the photos you’ve sent. This will allow you to see how the right colours, textures, and patterns can transform your space.

Concrete Solution

The end result of your Design Package is a practical and specific plan to give your space a transformative makeover. You can follow through with the plan on your own or get ongoing assistance as needed with my Design Consulting Services. Either way you will come away from our session with concrete ideas to begin creating your authentic home.

We purchased the Design Package from Karen to help us with the layout of our downsized house, and shopped the items we already owned . Together we moved furniture, selected paint colours, hung art, looked at wallpaper samples, learned our new home’s light patterns and discussed ways to best use each space functionally. We now have a design direction thanks to Karen, as her balance of creativity and pragmatism allowed us to optimize our home with little expense.

Karen’s approachable personality and keen eye brought forward a multitude of design ideas to help make my home a welcoming and soft place to fall at the end of a busy day. Her integrative Design Package experience began with a sequence of chats and photos for inspiration and creative guidance followed by a site visit to offer samples and deliver fresh perspectives and valued honest opinions. Karen Fron Interior Design will definitely be top of mind for future projects!

Cheryl Cumming

Contacting Karen has been the best decision l’ve made when it comes to developing a plan to furnish and decorate our home. Karen started by asking about my own personal style and transitioned the conversation into how our family used each space. From there we started to develop ideas, discussed options, and ultimately landed on actionable plans for each room. I am very impressed with the results!

Robin Cole

Karen is fantastic at drawing out your preference for style into tangible ideas for your home. She suggested the perfect paint colors, bathroom style, and room decor ideas for the new house we purchased in three hours that would’ve taken me hours to research. She also got me to think how to use the spaces in my house most effectively. I got so many great ideas to elevate the space I wouldn’t have come up with on my own. I really enjoyed working with her and would highly recommend her to anyone.

I cannot believe how Karen completely reimagined our home. She took the time to understand our lifestyle and in a matter of a couple of hours she had designed a new flow and injected our personality into the decor. I am amazed at all we accomplished and how many ways that little Design Package saved me time and money.

Lauren Tilley Collins

We did the design consult package, and were blown away with how many great ideas and concepts Karen provided us with. She took into consideration our likes and dislikes, and really focused on how we wanted to use the space. She brought a ton of samples, so we could get ideas around colours and textures. It is an amazing service and we highly recommend it!!!

Caroline Claussen & Brian Barker

I really liked the Design Package. Karen will come to your place and spend a lot of time going over your ideas and providing great options for your project, even if it’s a small one and regardless of budget.  She also brings lots of samples so you can see how colours, textures and materials will look on different areas and potentially work together.

Vanessa Franco

As I always say to anyone starting a home renovation project, “Don’t do anything until you’ve contacted Karen and booked her Design Package!”.  She is the most talented, practical, friendly, and non-judgmental designer that you will ever meet.

Susan Stead

It’s difficult in a couple of sentences to convey how much help Karen provided. I knew I wanted a modern design but trying to pick finishes was overwhelming. We discussed the look and the feel I wanted and Karen recommended paint colour, backsplash, lighting, cabinet hardware, and furniture placement. The results are stunning and I’m so grateful. Money so well spent!

Kristi Berlin

Karen has a true gift for connecting with clients and a keen sense of how to explain things. Her ingenuity for being able to adapt to what is already on the premises has made me a true believer in interior layouts and designs.
