RENOVATION INTERIOR DESIGN · CALGARY & ONLINE

Redesign the home you have
for the life you live now.

Bring the ideas you've been saving. I'll tell you what works in your home, what doesn't — and plan it so your contractor can build it.

SOUND FAMILIAR?

You know something needs to change. You just don't know where to start.

A layout from another era

Your home was planned twenty years ago. The way you cook, work and gather has changed since.

Hundreds of saved ideas

But which ones will work in your home — alongside the things you're keeping?

Expensive to get wrong

One wrong call on layout or finishes, and the budget goes to redoing instead of results.

MY APPROACH

A folder full of ideas — or none at all. Either way, you get a plan.

Maybe you've saved hundreds of pictures. Maybe you only know what isn't working. I sort through the noise, find what truly fits your home and the way you live — and shape it into a clear, buildable design.

KEEP
The character, the good bones, the pieces that matter.
CHANGE
Layout, flow, finishes and details that no longer work.
DRAW
Every decision on paper before a single wall is touched.

Karina Wolf
Design has always been in my DNA.

I grew up in a family of makers and decorators, surrounded by fabric, colour and rooms that were always being reimagined — design was simply part of home. Later, creating décor for weddings and milestone events taught me how a space can make people feel something.

MY APPROACH

I'm drawn to homes with a story — and I help every home find its own. Sometimes that means classic mouldings and colours with depth; sometimes clean lines and natural texture. Always materials that age well, details that feel considered, and rooms that look like the people who live in them.

Full of character. Planned for the way you live now.

Questions, answered.

Do you work outside Calgary?

Yes. I work in person in Calgary and area, and online for design projects anywhere.

What happens in the Strategy Session?

We walk the space, sort your ideas and set priorities. The fee is credited to your design package.

Can you move walls?

I propose layout changes and flag likely load-bearing walls. Structural specs and permit drawings are completed with an engineer or drafter.

Do you do the construction?

I work with your contractor — or can recommend trusted trades — and offer site visits during the build.

How long does a design take?
