Design That Works Beautifully.

At Big Sky Design, we believe the best interiors are both beautiful and purposeful. A home should support the way you live. A workplace should help people do their best work. A restaurant should invite people to stay awhile. A hotel should make guests feel welcome. And healthcare and senior living environments should feel thoughtful, comfortable, and reassuring.

The Magic Of The Mix

My favorite element of the room is the ceiling! The wallpaper feels unexpected yet it makes complete sense as it pulls the entire color palette together. The most adorable, whimsical light fixture installed on top of it adds an extra dose of personality AND practicality.

The best spaces are created together. We listen, communicate clearly, and guide you through the design process so you always understand where we're headed and why.

What Our Clients Say

Beautiful spaces are one thing. Creating a space you truly love living or working in is another.

“Jennifer Kraner and Bethany McLaughlin did a beautiful job decorating our new home. They helped with cabinet hardware selections, lighting, paint colors and furnishings. They took the time to listen and offer suggestions that I would not have considered. The design sessions were fun. We are so happy with the end result. I highly recommend Big Sky Design.”
