Hi, I'm Krista Hoffsis. I'm passionate about all things related to houses and design. To me, design is not just about aesthetics; it's about creating an atmosphere that exudes comfort, piques your interest, provides safety, and adds a touch of whimsy.
My journey into the world of design began during my time as a Realtor. While helping clients buy and sell homes, I couldn't help but be captivated by the unique ways people chose to live in their spaces. It was during these experiences that I fell in love with architecture and design. One "occupational hazard" of my job was moving every couple of years, and with each move, I took it upon myself to transform these houses into homes, one project at a time. Along the way, I honed my skills and discovered the immense joy of manipulating a space to reflect exactly how I wanted to live.
Staging has become a natural extension of my passion for design. It's a creative outlet that allows me to showcase the potential of any space. The power of well-thought-out staging can't be overstated. Whether you're preparing to sell your home or simply want to enhance your living environment, I'm here to help you realize the full potential of your space.
In my quest to further my knowledge and expertise in interior design, I earned a certificate from the Interior Design Institute. This formal training has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to transform your space into something you're thrilled to come home to every day. I understand that each person's taste and needs are unique, and I'm eager to work with you to bring your vision to life, creating a space that not only looks beautiful but also feels like home.
I live in Burlington, Vermont in a historic cape-style home I am slowly fixing up with my husband, two dogs, and a cat, who are all too familiar with my never-ending quest for the perfect interior space.
HOW I WORK
My design process begins with a keen focus on your vision and preferences. I believe in active collaboration, where we work together to conceptualize a space that uniquely represents your personality and lifestyle. Every project is a bespoke endeavor, with meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to blending style and functionality. I manage budgets and timelines effectively, and I have a network of trusted suppliers to source the finest furnishings and decor. Throughout the journey, your input is valued, and I ensure a seamless reveal of your transformed space, where you'll find comfort, beauty, and a true reflection of your individuality. Your satisfaction and the creation of a harmonious living environment are my ultimate goals.
Every project is different, but I will act as your task master and help you bring your ideas to life, from floor plans, to color selection, to furnishings, to lighting, and more, while working within your budget.
