Choose washable paint with a Satin Finish instead of Flat which will resist marks and keep your walls looking fresh and clean for longer. When choosing upholstery, select colors that closely match your dog. If you have a white dog, pick a white or light-colored fabric. If you have a multi-colored dog, patterns and tweeds are less likely to show signs of shedding.
This chic and unique table was inspired by a piece Kari saw while traveling through France. Perfect for a sitting room, or any space you want to add a fun focal point, the Ball Bearing "Necklace" Table is available in solid stainless steel or brass, or a mixture of the two. A replica of a Leon Rosen piece, this stunning desk has stainless steel legs and a gorgeous Macassar Ebony wood top.

I can't say enough about Kari. I met her through a mutual friend, and we hit it off instantly. I told her we were buying a home in Jackson Hole, WY. She lives part time in Boulder and that if she was ever in town I would love for her to come see the house so I could pick her brain. While my husband, Nikki and I fell in love with the bones of our mountain retreat having been built in the mid 90's with no renovations it needed a facelift to get it to where it was we wanted it to be.
The second Kari walked into the house I saw her wheels start spinning and the complete genius and creativity she saw

I interviewed Kari and her team when my boyfriend and I purchased our home in the Hollywood Hills a few months ago. Out of the many decorators I interviewed, I was blown away by her passion and creativity. Once the decorating process began, up until it was complete, Kari and her team never ceased to amaze us. Kari's attention to detail, creativity, and resourcefulness absolutely contributed to creating our dream home. If you're looking to be blown away in decorating your home I strongly recommend hiring Kari and her team.

My experience with Kari Whitman Interiors was incredible. Kari's design firm is very classy and fun. They were there to answer any of my questions and they made sure that the design in my home was catered to me. The sub-contractors were handled very professionally and the job was done quicker than I even expected. I was very pleased and my family was pleased with the expertise Kari has, especially with her experience!
Thank you KWI!
