How does your house feel, and what do you see when you first enter it? Is your home a true representation of your true self?
Designer and color consultant Kathy Banak has consolidated her two decades of experience into five easy steps for you to overcome obstacles and stay on the authentic path of living in a beautiful home. Her interior design, paint color, and spiritual insights are the framework in which she inspires you to live authentically and be aware of your personal and physical surroundings. Discovering the soul of your house and decluttering "stuff" are the initial steps in clearing the way for a new way of living. Creating a strong foundation of color launches you into understanding vital transforming elements, such as interior furnishings, window coverings, lighting, and your house's exterior. She intuitively guides you through the process and graciously shares designer trade secrets that shed new light on tired ways of decorating your house while transforming it into your Authentic Home.
The craziness of the world we live in nowadays can easily overwhelm us, and now more than ever, we need to have a home that nestles us in comfort and peace and is a soothing place to restore our souls.
