Hello! I'm Kristin, the girl behind Trade Interior Designs Co.
Trade Interior Designs Co. is the blue-collar design firm of Portland. Built on the belief that anyone should be able to enjoy a beautifully designed home, no matter the budget. Growing up the daughter of two hard working parents, the mentality of “you work to get what you want” is the foundation of this company. When I opened my own firm, I wanted to be something different, do something different and alter the way people think of design. My favorite clients are those who let me challenge them, and together we create a space that is outside the box. I always remind my clients that in the end it is their home, but my job is to push the limits until we get them exactly the space they want, whether it is what they envisioned originally, or not. With a heavy Pacific Northwest style, utilizing raw woods and steel, the “tradesman” comes through in my designs and work. Trade IDC specializes in both residential and commercial interior design and decorating, as well as residential real estate staging.
-Cheers to the wildcards, misfits, and dabblers of Portland!
