Organized

"I can't think if I'm surrounded by clutter. I need a certain amount of order in my space. One way to organize is to repeat colors and shapes...Instinctively, most people like things to feel balanced. Repetition is also very calming. But if you have too many bits and pieces around a room, the eye can't take them all in and it becomes confusing."

About designLuxe

designLuxe is the newest business venture that Kathryn Leas has embarked on.  Developed, created and run by Kathryn, this venture will also be run as a proprietorship, similar to Lulu Bella Boutique and CallawayDesigns.   

designLuxe combines all of Kathryn's passions, interests, skills and strengths in the specific areas; interior design/decor, organization, real estate, management, fashion & styling, graphic design, entrepreneurship, creative resolution, efficiency, planning and communication. 

Process: Kathryn will work one on one with each individual client to determine your needs and develop a client outline which will provide an overview of how designLuxe will meet your specific needs and create the most effective combination of consultation and services.  Every client will have an initial consultation.  This consultation is required so that you understand the services available and are able to sit down with Kathryn, working together to assess your needs and develop a plan to address and complete the services to meet your expectations.  Upon completion of your assessment of necessary services, a project outline and timeline will be created and paperwork will need to be signed.  Initial consultation can be done over the phone or in person, it takes approximately 30 minutes and is FREE of charge.
 
Prices for services and consultations vary and are subject to change depending on clients needs, degree of difficulty and services included in the project as well as the scope of completion timeline.

• real estate valuation improvements and consultation (how to increase resale value), as a licensed sales agent and having been raised in a family with a custom, luxury home building business, I have the background and knowledge necessary to provide this guidance.

• Closet: cleanse, re-design and organization with the goal of assessing and streamlining your wardrobe to only include essentials and in style items.  After the cleanse, you will review my 'closet manual' to find inspirations/options you would like and we will then assess how to create your dream closet.  I will preform the construction and implement organizational methods to provide you with the closet you have always wanted.  This is one of our most popular services (easy option: some choose just the cleanse [purge items] and have closet re-organized)
