Testimonials About Barbara

When I called Barbara, I had hoped she could help with a small redecorating project.  I had no idea she’d open my eyes to a world of color and design.  She gave me the confidence to explore my tastes and ultimately to create surroundings that reflect who I am.  Together, we transformed my space so I truly feel more at home in my home. Barbara is so much more than just an interior designer. Over the years, she’s helped me transform rooms by doing nothing more than rearranging furniture and my imagination. She’s helped me re-envision my office, create comfort in my surroundings, and gain confidence in my unique style. I can’t wait to see what she helps me with next!

Amy D., Phoenix, AZ

Barbara was a godsend for my family.  She helped me totally remodel my home and it is so much nicer than I could have hoped for. Barbara made it easy to select furniture.  I went to the furniture store four times and found nothing.  Then, I went with Barbara and found all my new furniture at one time, and it’s amazing!  I wanted purple; she found me purple sofas and beautiful area rugs. She also planned out a redesign for my whole house that is open, functional and beautiful.  I love my whole space, from the bathroom through the kitchen. The tile, flooring, color of the walls and kitchen layout; all make me feel comfortable and peaceful, in my home.  It’s upbeat and fits my personality.  It really beats the old stuff that I couldn’t stand to look at, anymore. If you want a fantastic space and a real “at home” feeling, employ Barbara and enjoy the whole process!

Having Barbara teach me about my palette of colors has truly been life changing! I used to feel uncomfortable in my house, but not know why. Now, with a few changes of color, I feel at peace. Knowing my colors I can also now walk into a store and find the exact color that will look good on me. I cannot express enough gratitude to Barbara for this education!

Amanda T., President of Moxie Girl, Phoenix AZ

I took the questionnaire from the Bajaro Method online and it really made me think about my home and what my preferences are.  I realized that my space is my sanctuary.  I found the quizzes very helpful to really discover more about my likes, dislikes and what makes me feel comfortable.  It made me consider choices outside my normal “box” of ideas.  As a result of the questionnaires, I would like to add more color and include more items that are soothing to me and reflect my personality.

Michell B., Scottsdale, AZ

I have had this book for a while, but I finally picked it up as I was trying to make some choices for a new house I’m moving into. I have been conflicted with my own personal style for a long time now. The questions stimulated me to really dig into what I wanted! It is more than a design book; it’s a book to help you find yourself and create a living space that is suited just for YOU!!!! GET THIS BOOK!

Barbara Kaplan gave me the confidence I needed when it came to designing my home.  I took the profile, “poof” out came the answers I needed.  Barbara is not like other designers that offer their thoughts of how YOUR home should be.  Instead, she talked to me and asked me what I wanted/needed in the space I was decorating.  Her philosophy and approach are exactly what the doctor ordered.  I absolutely LOVE my home and I know that I decorated it myself with just a little nudging along the way. THANK YOU, Barbara, for making my home express who I am.

Elan W., Petaluma, CA

I took your class a few years ago and I have to say I am really enjoying your posts. It doesn’t take much to change the mood of a room or home. As I just posted, I painted over all the heavy Tuscan red of 4 years ago to the colors of the ocean. This Pisces girl feels MUCH more at home. Keep up the great posts!

Germaine C., Sun Lakes, AZ

I took The Bajaro Method Interior Design Preference Profile online and for the first time, it made me think about my home and my preferences. This process made me understand that my space is my sanctuary. The questions helped me learn more about my likes, dislikes, and what makes me feel comfortable. It made me consider choices outside my normal “box” of ideas. Based on the results, I plan to add more color and some items that are soothing that reflect my personality.

Michell B., Scottsdale, AZ

My skill set doesn’t include any of those required to envision a beautiful and gracious home.  I want to open the door, walk in and have it be me and done.  How to get there, well, there was the rub!  I didn’t even know my colors, never even thought about them.   This is not to say that I was lazy and disinterested in everything.  I have my reason to be and I feel very comfortable in my role on the planet.  I just didn’t know at that time that I had any crossover skills.  Barbara was able to get me to focus, gently and lovingly, and to become interested in selecting fabrics and tasks of that sort.  Ultimately, all of the choices were mine and my husband’s.  I understand why I made each and everyone and I love it all.  Barbara’s gentle guidance opened me up to this new world that I tip toed in until I became comfortable.  Barbara was the “wind beneath my wings.”

Susan Y., Phoenix, AZ

When we decided we wanted to remodel our home, all was well and good.  The problem was I had no idea where to start, what was next, how to do any of it.  Fortunately, my dear friend, Barbara was an expert in virtually everything I needed to know from the smallest detail to the grandest plan.  If I dreamt it, she could manifest it.  Things that might have flitted through my mind on a semi-creative day, which in my life was exceedingly rare, in hers, constant, were taken very seriously.  This odious project which I had feared became a joy when Barbara and I did it together.

Susan Y., Phoenix, AZ
