Bauer Design Group

We hired Kim to help design an outdoor patio for a jacuzzi and fountain and she more than exceeded our imagination! Her plans were stunning and really utilized the space in a way we hadn't even considered. It made the patio not just an add-on but an integral part of our backyard space. Her furniture designs were perfect! And her landscaping suggestions really expanded the space at the same time it gave it a cozy feel: quite extraordinary. We got so much more than we had anticipated and could not be more delighted with the results. Thank you Kim! You are a wonderful person to work with and a brilliant designer. Can't wait for our next project to call you again.

Working with Kim and team for the last couple of years has brought on a whole new light of professionalism. Between her years of gifted knowledge, design creativity and use of latest rendering technology, allows you to experience the vision at a personal level. She has a great mind set on how projects should evolve and is one step ahead of the competition. I “highly” recommend Bauer Design Group for any project you desire. Thanks Kim for being part of our team and look forward to many more!

My wife and I have lived in our home for about 20 years. It is in its original condition and there are many remodeling ideas we have for our home. But, neither one of us has any clue about interior design, construction or the costs of these items. We set aside a budget and then started to look for someone who could just give us a reality check on what to do and how much it might cost. We found Kim. We liked the fact that she is an interior designer with deep experience in construction. Our experience with her was great. She came by and walked through the inside and outside of the house. She listened carefully to our ideas and asked a lot of questions about how we currently use the house and what changes we want to make. Then, she was able to show us room by room, what improvements we should consider and what she thought would pay off both in terms of our lifestyle and resale value. We were amazed because she saw possibilities that we never considered and she found things that we didn’t realize were potential problems. She gave us great ideas for fixing some of the cosmetic issues, and shed reality on some of the structural repairs we would need to deal with in the near future. By the time the walk through ended, we had a really great perspective on what was possible, how much it would cost, and how long it would take and how we should prepare for a major remodel. That two hour walk-through was well worth the investment, and when we are ready to begin, we will definitely call Kim to help us plan for construction, create a design plan and manage the process.

Over the years I have had the opportunity to work with Kim Bauer on multiple projects.

Kim contacted me to help bring one of her concepts to life on an extensive remodel of a 1950's house. The exterior needed a new elevation. I was impressed because many interior designers I have worked really focus just on decoration. Kim's firm had produced a completed, scaled 3D concept of the exterior of the home showing the addition of dormers and a Portico. It is important for an architect and interior designer to be able to communicate efficiently to make sure that architectural plans and construction documents reflect the intended design concept and can be constructed within budget. Kim's firm excels at making that happen. Her detailed and accurate 3D renderings and her understanding of construction made it easy for me to do my job and ultimately, make the project a success.

Kim Bauer is a creative, collaborative and professional designer who guided us through our major home remodel. We decided to remodel our home to meet our future needs as we age. Kim provided a proposal defining her role, an estimate of her time and fees at each step and stayed within her estimates - no surprises. Kim identified qualified contractors allowing us to obtain competitive bids and control costs. Kim was responsive in a timely manner to our questions and requests. We were very fortunate to have met Kim. We love our new home and have to recognize Kim's creativity and guidance. It was a pleasure working with Kim Bauer on our home remodel.

Kim took an unremarkable investment property in Texas and gave it character, warmth, and modern appealing touches that made the property stand out from its peers on the market. The materials, textures, and color palette added interest and a high end finish at an effective price point - she made the most of our budget and stayed within it. Once listed, the property had 4 offers the same day, several over asking price.

Over the years, I have worked with multiple interiors designers form homes Deer Valley, La Quinta and Rancho Palos Verdes. Kim stands out as one of the top interior designers I have had the pleasure to work with. I originally contacted her for a second opinion on some materials selections for my home. During our first meeting she sketched out an option that I hadn't considered, but that I loved. I hired her to help me select surfaces and finishes for a major remodel of my entry way, kitchen and great room and to work with my contractor during the installation. I was extremely happy with the results. Kim understands quality and help me select materials that were commensurate with my home. She is very patient and I think one of her strengths is that she listens very carefully to her clients. She is able to interpret what they want and bring that to life. She also fantastic in working with my contractor. She created construction drawings for the contractor that were concise and easy to interpret. She knows construction very well which is helpful in creating design solutions that can be built. During construction she was extremely responsive and available when critical decisions needed to be made in the field. I have been delighted with her services and on top of that she is a pleasure to work with . I offer my highest recommendations.

Starting last month we have worked together on the remodel and ground up construction for a few properties , mainly focused on the residential sector.

I have noticed that she can fully understand all the little details required to pull a job together and can act on behalf of clients to coordinate all the vendors on the project. Her clients benefit from her demonstrated attention to detail. Overall I have to say that she was a pleasure to work with and a very professional individual.
