Everyone deserves to live in a space that nurtures and provides sanctuary.

Philosophy

KAREN FRON

I believe that a well designed home will make life better. Everyone deserves to live in a space that nurtures and provides sanctuary. Function is always a priority in my work, but careful application of texture and colour adds the depth and visual interest that I seek.  I like to break the rules when designing and not be bound by conventions . For me it’s important to create interiors that have a soul and truly reflect each client.

love notes

This is the third project I have worked with Karen and her team on. It's a delight to work with a designer who listens to my ideas and interprets them in ways I never thought possible. She is able to combine high and low and make it all look fabulous.

When we needed a guest room project done quickly, Karen put it on a front burner and turned an existing blah space into a truly beautiful suite, full of character and charm... and one that blended seamlessly with our home. Her connection to talented craftsmen made the project all the more unique, to say the least, and surprisingly affordable. Thank you Karen.

Karen has the unique ability to determine a clients’ taste before and during the project. She took the time to work with Larry and I to discover our likes and dislikes. In the end the design was very much based on our personal tastes and not that of the designer. She had great ideas and presented different price options but more importantly we never felt pressured into choosing something we were not comfortable with. Karen did a great job of working with us every step of the way to ensure we were confident and happy with our choices. We are so pleased with the end results.
Larry & Adele ThomsonSpring 2020
Karen’s approach to design is thoughtful and personal. She took the time to truly understand what we envisioned for our home renovation and created a design that is not only beautiful but functional for a growing family. Karen is a joy to work with and I would not hesitate to call on her for all future projects.

Karen is fantastic! When she first visited our home her warmth immediately showed through as she listened to my desires as well as my husbands concerns. She provided various ideas and solutions for our kitchen and main floor remodel. Karen took on my personality and quirky style and made everything perfect for my lifestyle

I was so appreciative of Karen's willingness to work with my existing pieces and her respect of our budget. Karen has a bold eye for colour and gently nudged me out of my comfort zone. Our house now feels like a home and we are so enjoying it. I would recommend Karen to anyone wanting a talented designer that really listens.
JoAnne MorrisonJune 2018
Karen and I have been working together for over 5 years now as we slowly renovate and decorate our whole home. I can no longer make a single design decision in my home without her expertise! She has not only made my home absolutely beautiful, but has made it more functional as well. 
Laura Di LelloSince 2014
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 BerlinOctober 2018
Karen helped bring our design dreams alive, injected our personality into our new build and made our house our home. She worked with what we had and loved and helped us choose additional pieces to create an enviable design that still feels fresh. I truly recommend Karen for all interior design needs - she has a phenomenal eye and understands how to create both beautiful and liveable spaces.    
Kirsten LankesterSpring 2016
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.
