Our family has worked with Barbara Krai for the past 2 years developing a truly private sanctuary in our home. She has been most attentive to our many special requests for creating a magical peaceful place for our family to play and relax. Her outstanding space design ideas worked beautifully to open up our home without adding square footage. Her selection of new and unusual accessories and fixtures helped bring a fresh new look to our home. We most value her tremendous attention to detail while creating a truly divine place for "real living - The Carolans

We worked with interior designer Barbara Krai for over two years as we were building our 6,000 square foot home in Avila.. Barbara’s guidance and expertise made this two-year process an enjoyable one. Her easy nature, incredible listening skills and knowledge of fabric, furniture design and lighting brought our architectural drawings to life. We gave her a few guidelines (color choices and use of some existing pieces of furniture), and she created exactly what we desired. In our eyes, our home is truly a livable, comfortable masterpiece, and we have Barbara to thank. - Harold and Michelle Koster

We cannot thank Barbara enough for her vision, patience and hard work, along with her attention to detail to transform our vacation home to such an amazing space. We absolutely love it and look forward to spending as much time there as possible.

Having worked with Barbara over the past four years on numerous design projects throughout our home, we've learned what "custom design" really means. On our first project, our two story entry hall, the result was an award winning design featuring a spectacular mural which she designed. Whether managing a complete renovation project, or working on finer details, her creative breadth and painstaking attention to detail make her a unique design resource. Barbara also focuses on bringing us only the perfect choices that will achieve our goals. She's the perfect designer for us with our busy family life! - Michael and Kerry Morgan
I have had the pleasure of working with Barbara over the course of five years - Whether choosing wallpaper, or finding just the right combination of fabrics, Barbara came through for me with just the right look. I am most pleased with the new look on my lanai. Barbara introduced me to some unique glass tiles bringing character, color and personality to the space. I love to show it off to guests and enjoy spending more time relaxing in such a pretty space. I couldn’t be more pleased and am looking forward to working again with Barbara on my next project. - Ellie Paladine
When we decided it was time to explore renovating our kitchen, we called Barbara who had been highly recommended by our neighbor who had her manage their extensive renovation - and we loved the results next door. Barbara presented us with detailed drawings that were easy to understand and we were very excited to see the creative ideas she incorporated to meet our goals. We now love, love, love our new kitchen. Everything is easier. We highly recommend Barbara as a highly skilled renovation expert, easy to work with, detailed oriented and very creative. She improved our kitchen in a way that we never even imagined! - Debbie and Bill O’Neal
Inspired by the Colorado Rockies, the architecture of the new home I built on Lake Pretty is a mountain lodge style. Although I love the rustic elements, I wanted a contemporary interior that combined comfort and sophistication. That was when I found Barbara and our long standing creative partnership began. She was able to put her extensive experience to work in creating a truly one of a kind interior that was subsequently featured on the cover of HouseTrends. - Richard Carlson
After our highly successful collaboration on the interior design of my home, I have retained Barbara by my company to design the interiors of models as well as the Clubhouses for several large scale condominium developments. Barbara created the “wow” for every one of the models by her choice of bold colors and dramatic use of accessories while creating the feeling of spaciousness in relatively small spaces - and staying within my budget. Barbara is truly the complete package as a designer. - RGD Development
