Meet Kimberly Richmond, Your North Vancouver Interior Designer

White Peony Design was built for families who live full, fast-paced lives but still care deeply about the beauty and function of their home. What sets us apart is our belief that interior design should never feel intimidating, chaotic, or overly precious. We specialize in creating life-proof interiors—spaces that are stunning but built to withstand sticky hands, sports equipment, pet hair, and everyday mess. But beyond the aesthetic, it’s our approach that clients love most. You’ll get a transparent, professional process paired with warmth, humor, and zero design snobbery. We don’t impose cookie-cutter styles or chase fleeting trends. We listen—deeply—then create spaces that reflect your family’s real story. And while we’re led by one principal designer, we work with a team of vetted local professionals, so you can relax knowing you’re supported at every step. It's a design you can trust, by someone who gets what real life looks like.

Yes. Our Full Design Experience includes comprehensive Design Oversight. We act as the central point of communication between you and the trades, managing procurement and onsite details to ensure the project remains cohesive and true to the original design.

Absolutely. In fact, busy professionals are our primary client base—and our entire process is tailored to meet their needs. We know your time is valuable and your energy is limited, especially when juggling work, kids, and daily life. That’s why we’ve built a streamlined design process that emphasizes clarity, structure, and proactive communication. You’ll never be left wondering what happens next, waiting for updates, or chasing down contractors. Kimberly works closely with you to understand your priorities and manage your project around your schedule. You’ll have access to curated selections, visual guides, and well-timed decisions—without being overwhelmed by choices. Think of us as your partner and project manager in one: someone who respects your time, understands your goals, and takes the weight off your shoulders. With White Peony Design, you can stay focused on your career and family while we create a home that supports all of it beautifully.

We make renovations feel manageable by offering a clear, professional process with plenty of empathy built in. Families often come to us feeling overwhelmed—unsure where to start, worried about costs, and dreading the disruption. That’s why we emphasize transparency, communication, and a sense of calm at every stage. We begin with a detailed design consultation that gives you a roadmap and realistic expectations. From there, Kimberly manages all the moving parts—materials, timelines, and contractor coordination—so you don’t have to. We share visual tools to help you picture the final result and walk you through each decision with just the right amount of support. You’ll always know what’s happening, when, and why—because we believe confidence comes from clarity. And when things feel hectic (as they often do with family life), we’re the steady hand keeping your project—and your peace of mind—on track. Renovating doesn’t have to be stressful. With us, it isn’t.

We work best with time-starved families and professionals who want their home to reflect their life—not restrict it. Most of our clients are juggling work, kids, and busy schedules, and they come to us feeling a little (or a lot) overwhelmed by the idea of renovating or redesigning. They know what they like, but may struggle to pull it all together. Or they’ve tried DIY—and realized they need a guide who really gets it. What makes for a great fit? Clients who trust our process, value both form and function, and are ready to let a professional lead. Whether you're a young family needing kid-proof materials or a couple planning for future resale value, we tailor each project to your goals and stage of life. If you crave clarity, love beautiful spaces, and need someone to carry the load, you're our kind of client—and we’d love to meet you.
