Unlocking Alexandria’s Interior Design Secrets: Insights from Kristin Try Interiors
As a designer and artist in Alexandria for over 10 years, I’ve learned a lot from partnering with discerning clients who lead extraordinary lives and crave comfortable, yet sophisticated living spaces representing their stories. We live in a vibrant community with well educated, well-traveled clients who all have very different preferences. The biggest design secret I have: listening to you, the client, to understand your story.
While I don’t come from a formal design background, I understand my clients as I’ve been in their shoes and it's imperative for me to know what they like, where they’ve been and hope for in the future. Many of my clients already have a great sense of style, even if they don’t always know how to bring their own home design aesthetic together in a way they envision. Often, they lack the time to find unique sources to really make it personal to them.
I’m grateful that our clients trust us and allow us to work a little magic like we recently did in Del Ray. Our client wanted to make some tweaks following a major home renovation where they didn’t quite pull the trigger on a few design dreams they had envisioned. The renovation process can wear you down, and sometimes you start to second guess yourself. This is the major reason to reach out to us! We get it…life is already filled with hundreds of other details…work, kids, pets, spouses, parents, etc., it’s a lot! Let us navigate the process with you and to give you the confidence to pull the trigger on the little details that make your home uniquely yours, like artisan textiles, wallpaper, rugs, lighting and custom furniture or built-ins.
We know the players, the unique sources, skilled craftsmen to deliver on your design dreams and can guarantee they won’t look the same as what you see in your neighbor’s home. We just finished the main level of the Del Ray home mentioned above and our client shared:
“Kristin took the time to understand my vision and goals for our home, creating a cohesive design that elevated its historical character with thoughtful details. Throughout this collaboration she gave me two incredible gifts: A beautiful and cozy home for entertaining friends and family and the opportunity to engage in a fun and creative process alongside a true expert. Her inspiration is addicting and now I’m in the search for the next project!”
And we are thrilled to be at the start of another major project in this home, and can’t wait to get some professional photos of the home once they are completed. For now, I’m sharing a few snaps from my iPhone:
