About my blog
My name is Kristen Hancock and I am an interior designer, project manager, and homeowner’s rep based in Pittsburgh, PA. I have learned a lot about designing homes over the past 20 years in this industry and I want to share this knowledge with you. You deserve to have the house that you want, exactly how you want it. My hope is that I can bring my expertise and knowledge to you in a way that will help you achieve your goals.

Bringing your lived experience to the design process is of paramount importance as it infuses your spaces with authenticity, personal meaning, and a deep connection to your identity. Your unique journey, preferences, and memories are the guiding compass that shapes the design of your home. By incorporating elements that resonate with your past, present, and aspirations for the future, your living spaces become an extension of your soul. From cherished mementos to cultural influences, your lived experience adds depth and richness to the design, creating spaces that truly reflect who you are and how you want to live. Embracing your lived experience empowers you to infuse emotion and purpose into every decision, making your home a sanctuary that not only looks beautiful but also feels like a true reflection of your essence. Ultimately, it is this personal touch that transforms a house into a home, where you can find comfort, joy, and a sense of belonging every time you walk through the door.description
