Kimberly
Merritt
IDS, CDP, ADE, IRIS, DCI, BBB
Director
Principal Designer
Kimberly has been creating beautiful spaces for as long as she can
remember. Weekends
were spent rearranging furniture, shopping for antiques and entertaining with
her mother - a pioneer redesigner.
Her
career began on Newbury Street in Boston, MA where
she dressed windows and fashionable Bostonians. When
she made the switch to interiors, she always practiced
the concept of 'using what you already own' from
the beginning and continues to offer affordable design
solutions to her clients. Eighteen years later
, she still loves what she does.
She
is a designer, educator and writer whose
words and work have been featured regionally and nationally
in New
Hampshire Magazine, New
England Home Magazine, and HGTV. Today,
you can find her writing about design, lifestyle and
life's little mishaps in her blog, Beautiful
Living Style, which she launched in 2009.
She teaches the art of interior decorating, interior redesign,
home staging and color from her southern New Hampshire design
studio. She is the creator of the Certified Decorating
Professional® programs and offers both certified
and certificate courses as well as decorating workshops and
classes.
