I highly recommend Kindra Tragesser, of Urban Homestead Designs. We asked Kindra to come to our home to help us do a complete redesign. We knew we wanted something different but we weren’t sure exactly what we wanted to do. We laughed and told her we wanted to do our own little version of “Love It or List It.” I was ready to move while my husband wanted to stay.
She was able to come out within a few days, and helped us brainstorm what we wanted to change. She has a flexible schedule and has been able to accommodate our very busy schedule, which we appreciate tremendously! She is easy to talk to and we came to quickly trust her. At times I felt is she was a mind-reader, as she was able to articulate changes to the house that I wanted but just couldn’t think of myself. I love that she is very professional yet down to earth with a great personality and sense of humor. Whenever I had a question or concern she responded very quickly. I also loved that she coordinated all of the work for us, from scheduling estimates and obtaining quotes. This was a huge stress reliever for us!
And lastly, her sense of style is phenomenal… she appreciates all of the various styles people may desire and works to achieve their goals within their budget!!
My husband and I have worked with Kindra on two different homes over the past couple of years.
Currently we are working with her on our lake home. We are always impressed by Kindra’s unique gift of understanding what you, as the client, wants. Especially when you aren’t really sure yourself and realize you have been throwing thoughts and ideas at her left and right. She just rolls with it and collects her thoughts as if it’s no big deal. She seemingly transforms any sitting and makes it everything you would expect and more!
We would highly recommend Kindra/Urban Homestead to anyone looking to go a notch above! You won’t be disappointed!
We have had a great experience with Kindra and would recommend her to anyone! She has a passion and it definitely shows through her efforts. We threw a ton of ideas at her and she was able to take them and customize the theme to what we wanted. She hit a home-run with the design.
She has been very professional, sets clear timelines and expectations, and is even willing to get “dirty” to get the job done. We most definitely will be using Kindra in the future.
Personable, Expert, Creative all wrapped up into one lovely designer!
This is the 2nd project she has come through for us, she is very creative in her use of colors, patterns and textures and we love the results!
She just may be a designer when you first meet her but you will certainly consider her a friend when finished!
We are so glad that we chose Urban Homestead for our kitchen and dining room renovation. Kindra guides you through the process flawlessly, all the way from the consult to the end result. She really puts in the time it takes to get to know your likes and dislikes to get a true sense of your style. Kindra helped us step out of our design comfort zone to add a little color and texture to our new spaces. She goes the extra mile to make sure you are getting exactly what you want. I bet she made 8 or more trips helping us find that one perfect kitchen backsplash! She stayed conscious of our budget, has a true designers eye, and we could not be more pleased with the end result. I already have another project for her! If you are looking for a sweet, talented, professional for your next project big or small, Urban Homestead is the answer.
"If anyone is searching for an interior design specialist out of the myriads available out there, I can say Kindra Tragresser should be your first choice! We were searching for a designer who would listen to our ideas, combine them with her expertise, and create a design plan that suited our style.
Kindra did a great job at balancing each of our tastes to create a room that we both love. She was flexible and worked with us to keep the project within our budget. Overall, working with Kindra has been a great experience."
