People are our passion

KHD’s tagline – Fall in love with your home – is spot on; no truer words were ever written. The elements of Hygge are prevalent throughout our renewed space. We feel peaceful, relaxed and joyful in our home at long last. After our initial, very informative meeting with brilliant, charismatic and elegant Krista, we felt totally comfortable diving into this project. Embarking on a home renovation is a really big deal but KHD has the design and construction process down to a seven-step science as referenced on their website. Our principal designer, Victoria, was fabulous. Her talent, passion, warmth, attention to detail and constant communication never failed to impress. The budget we arrived at together was itemized line-by-line and was extremely transparent, no hidden costs or surprises. All of our meetings were positive experiences which included necessary decision-making but also lots of laughter! The KHD team is a wonderfully happy one which speaks volumes. Krista has created an incredibly supportive work environment for her designers and the company attracts/contracts only top-notch trades. In addition to Krista and Victoria, office administrator Jenny, brand manager Britt and on-site project manager Adam all possess amazing energy and professionalism. Our home renovation was completed on time and slightly under budget which we assume is rare these days! We whole-heartedly encourage any and all to connect with KHD; you will be so glad you did!
