Karen Painter is a Seattle-based interior designer. Raised in New York but living in the Northwest for nearly twenty years, Karen describes her style as being a blend of the two regions. The rich history and iconic style of New England influences her design and, as she feels, helps bring a sophistication to the laid-back style of the west coast. She feels her background helps bring a unique look to clients - giving them the look they crave with the ease busy lives demand. Before focusing on interior design, Karen worked in business in New York & Boston. She feels her background in business helps keeps her in touch with the project and budget-management that is important to the success of a project.
