Color Consultant

“I have been married for 32 years and have lived in 23 houses; one could say I am addicted to moving. I could blame it on my husband being in the military or on his job as a pilot. But I think the truth is I love beautiful things, or rather I love to make things beautiful. I am all about a good “before and after”. However being a young military family with three kids did not always lend itself to beauty…base housing with cinder-block walls, industrial blue carpeting…temporary apartments that I could not touch, rental homes I did not own, and the ever-present budget.”

Eventually, they were able to purchase their own home which finally gave her the freedom to express herself. Except for the budget part. So she learned to make the most of what she had and how to celebrate the inherent beauty of each house. And if she couldn’t make it pretty, she could always make it clean.

Kim’s inspiration for design, both interior and garden comes primarily from what she observed growing up in Marin County. There is such a variance in architectural styles there, although her most prominent memory is Redwood…Redwood houses, Redwood decks, Redwood hot tubs. And glass. Houses on the bay, beach houses, houses in the trees. Eichlers, Cape Cods, Victorians, and hers was a hideous contemporary with a view of San Quentin. But here is the thing- her second inspiration was her parents. “They were ahead of their time for sure.” Her Dad built a multi-tier Redwood deck with patio covers, a bridge, a hot tub surrounded by fuchsias and ferns, and up-lighting. They installed natural grass wall paper and built floating shelves next to their solid oak encased waterbed. Her mom made wall-hangings with textured yarns of thistles and weeds, and macrame plant holders. There were shade gardens, fruit trees, and a giant olive; hydrangeas, Japanese maples, birch trees.

The transformation was Sunset Magazine-worthy and she will never forget that process.

Her third biggest inspiration is Martha Stewart. She made home decor and gardening an art. Her eye for color and placement is historical and timeless. Also doesn’t hurt that she has unlimited funds. And a staff.

She has learned that any style of house can be beautiful and it doesn’t have to cost a fortune.

Her goal is to start with what you have and make it into what you dream about.
