ABOUT

White Background

Hello!

I’m Betsy Kornelis and I have been helping local and virtual clients update their homes and businesses, in some capacity or another, for over 15 years. Making spaces look good and function well has been a passion of mine since I was a kid, and I ended up with a Bachelor’s degree in Studio Art from Beloit College. I got my start as a design consultant in the retail sector, began blogging about design simultaneously and eventually set out to work for myself as an interior designer.

 

I offer all kinds of design services, from picking furnishings, light fixtures, accessories and paint colors, to creating floor plans for full on kitchen or bathroom renovations. In addition to in-home consulting, I also offer E Design services and can create shoppable digital mood boards and actionable design plans for clients from a distance. I also write a monthly design column for the Kitsap Sun, which I have been doing since 2015. In 2022, I was voted into the top 3 Interior Design companies for the Kitsap Sun’s Best of the Best. 

 

I’m also wife to Chris and mom to Thomas and Lucy, plus two kitties. We recently tackled a gut remodel of our current home- a 1936 brick Tudor in Bremerton, WA. It has been a serious labor of love, and we are still crafting it into the house of our dreams. I love hosting family and friends, cooking new recipes, and thrifting at Kitsap's many vintage shops.

Philosophy

​

To be an effective designer, I strive to listen well, think up creative solutions to design problems and work hard to translate my clients' needs and aesthetics into livable, inspirational spaces that tell their story. For me, it is a joy to transform outdated, unloved or unused rooms into beautiful and useful spaces.
