Testimonials About Barbara

It means so much to me that you assessed each room with me. Since your visit, the way I view both my home and my life has changed. I’m striving for comfortable function and peace here now, rather than putting things in places because I saw it in a magazine. I’ve changed a number of areas of my home, with your voice in my head. And there are more changes to come!

Tami B., Fountain Hills, 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

I believe that one of the biggest truths in life is that change is constant. When Barbara works with you, she is an amazing source to guide you to make those changes positive, whether you are changing your home, your personal life or your business.

Ruth U., Scottsdale, 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

What a fun date with Barbara! Barb wanted us to go to Pier 1 and a few other stores to spice up my home and who would think that it would be exciting and fun?! As Barb motored through the store she selected items for my home knowing where it could be placed and if it would work! She knew my home better than I did from only seeing it one time! Wow!! Even more remarkable is when these items were delivered, they all looked outstanding in my home, making my house even more enjoyable to me! Barb has a great eye and a picture perfect memory. What an amazing woman! Anyone decorating should have the “BARBARA EXPERIENCE!”

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

Barbara Kaplan gets to the heart of the matter. In her Bajaro Method certification classes, Barbara shares extensively from her years of experience with vendors, clients, and the design industry. More importantly, she offers a unique opportunity to understand how important the human element is in transforming a room into an inviting living space, a house into a home, a space into a sanctuary. I was reminded to actively listen to my clients and remember that design should always be a collaborative process, after all, it is their home!

Deborah M.K., Prescott, AZ

Barbara designed our house several years ago, and really understood our needs and personality. She has a fantastic sense of color, and was a pleasure to work with. We continue to enjoy her work, as it is part of our daily atmosphere.

Orna A., 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 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!
