ART

I love creating art in different forms, textures, colours  and finishes. I am a self taught artist which  really allows me the  freedom to move easily between disciplines and medium.  Since I was a child I always loved creating any art.

My work captures the essence of modern / contemporary art.

I have provided numerous commissioned artworks to clients in South Africa and Dubai, exhibiting in various interior design showrooms as well as the Lize Wendt Gallery based in Johannesburg.

I have had the pleasure of working with Karen on several projects so far. In addition to helping me refresh and finish three bedrooms and an office space, and redesign our outdoor space, she also helped me to plan and provided photography for my child’s birthday party. I am very happy with the outcomes of all our projects together. Her calm, honest and friendly demeanor made her a delight to work with. Each time we have worked together, she has shown herself to be highly organized, very responsive and also realistic regards to timeframes, budgets and creative concepts. I also feel that Karen is very adaptable and did an excellent job in bringing her own design sensibility with mine. Thankyou again for all your help, Karen! Kristina, Meadows – Dubai

 

Doing what you love

“Karen is extremely pleasant to work with, carefully listens to her client and works hard to create and  reflect the client’s requirement. I have been amazed as she has come up with just what we were looking for. Karen is energetic, enthusiastic, and understands budgets. Even though she worked remotely all was done in a very professional and timely manner . I would highly recommend DESIGN K.” Paula, Porto – Portugal

“Karen, I cannot thank you enough for your time today. You have helped me so much – a huge weight of my shoulders, your advise and design ideas were awesome and exactly what I wanted. Thank you again so much! ” Carla,  Victory Heights – Dubai

I worked with Karen to design my toddler’s room into something both functional and attractive. In this small apartment room, all four sides of the walls were something of a puzzle with either a window or a door to design around and needed to convert to a guest room on top of that! Karen’s streamlined Nordic aesthetic really came through with the mood board while she took took the headache of sourcing materials and hiring various contractors around Dubai for each task that needed doing from carpenters, window frosting, electricians and talented people that could re-purpose what we had to save money.

In the end, we got a beautiful, fully-functional room that has grown over the years with my son that we are happy with several years later and still looks fresh! Thanks again,
Eileen, Marina – Dubai

Karen, thank you! for patiently and meticulously putting together my garden vision from bits of ideas I couldn’t have pieced together myself. You effortlessly understood the brief and captured its essence in your creative process, paying attention to every detail. My home is my canvas and hence I truly value the fact that you not only shared my enthusiasm for this project but listened and were open to discussion of ideas. Your recommendations were always on point and there in no doubt to the keen eye for design behind DESIGN K. You understand beauty in simplicity and that’s what makes this design timless. I’m so pleased to have collaborated on my garden with you. It was certainly worth the wait! It’s exactly what I wanted it to be and that much more! Thank you. Kasia, Damac Hills – Dubai
