Traveling frequently throughout the world, Kari stays abreast of the newest styles, trends and ideas and to offer creative results that are both functional and beautiful. While her work ranges from Spanish, Moroccan, and Mediterranean to tres moderne, Kari has created a signature style by finding salvaged artifacts to add time and wisdom to the design of her projects. Her work has been prominently featured in Ultimate Decorating (2003), Homes by Design (2004), Dream Walls (2004) and In Style Home (2005).

    Out of her commitment to personalized service, Kari directly oversees each project and works with her clients to achieve specific goals. Kari offers her clients assistance in all phases of design: selection and purchasing of furnishings, fabrics, and surfaces; remodeling and new construction from initial concept to contracting; project management; and, complete furnishing and final installation. Kari’s team includes several premier architects, engineers and contractors and key wholesale contacts in the textile, appliance and furnishings industries.

    A native of Colorado, Kari is also founder of Ace of Hearts, a non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing dogs from shelters and placing them in loving homes. Her work in this area has also led to innovative design for homeowners with pets.

    Kari recently completed filming for a new reality show on WE TV titled The Kari Whitman Show. This eight-episode series premiered on March 3, 2007 at 10 pm.
