Karen C. Wirrig, FIFDA is the owner of Karen Cole Designs.  Using color and texture in fabrics and finishes, creating custom-designed furnishings, window treatments, bedding, area rugs, selecting accessories, and art work all based on comprehensive interviews with the client, she prepares a design plan for your special spaces.  Using only licensed and insured trade professionals, you can depend on this design team whether you are redesigning an existing home or working with architects and builders on new construction.

Karen strives to combine timeless quality with new technology and current trends.  Projects have been completed in Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Carefree, Phoenix, Mesa, and Sun City West as well California, Oregon, and Colorado.  She has also served as president of the Arizona Chapter of the International Furnishings and Design Association.  Karen is currently serving a three year term as Director on the international board of directors to the International Furnishings and Design Association.

Communication is the key to success in interior design.  At its best, interior design should be a personal reflection of the dreams and needs of each client rather than a particular designer or style.  Please contact Karen Cole Designs for a consultation on your next interior design project.

Karen Cole Designs is pleased to announce the opening of a second office in Carlsbad, California and welcomes the opportunity to work with clients in San Diego County in addition to Phoenix and Scottsdale.

Use the link below to take our virtual tour, which offers an excellent example of the furnishings package for a two bedroom, two bath condo.  Based on a color palette and basic furniture style chosen by the client, all furnishings and accessories shown were selected and installed by Karen Cole Designs, with the exception of the flat screen television and a few personal items.  The client also requested a custom paint scheme for the condo and window treatments which were an additional charge.
