- CCOLOR is Music for Your EyeApr 2014 - Current (12 years 3 months)Did you know that there is actually a term for folks who are afraid of color? Yep - Chromaphobia! Yet I find that most homeowners are scared to put the wrong paint color on their wall or are terrified to buy furniture for fear of making a mistake. To create a home that you love don’t underestimate the power and beauty of color!
- CCOLOR- PAINTING & DECORApr 2014 - Current (12 years 3 months)Kelly Fitzsimmons is no ordinary interior designer. She’s a world-traveled artist and photographer who has parleyed her understanding of color, design and detail into the successful Chicago-based interior design and painting enterprise, Paint The Town Red. How she integrates tones, tints and textures is influenced by the vivid colors of the people and places of the world that she’s visited and photographed. “My approach to color selection and decorating is collaborative, playful and focused,” says Fitzsimmons. “I find no pleasure in playing it safe when choosing colors. I’m intent on bringing life into each space I create.”
- FFabulous Fabric! Uphoster Your Favorite Chair to give it a NEW Life!Apr 2013 - Jul 2013 (4 months)Fitzsimmons encourages her clients to select colors and textures that truly inspire them and are in line with their intention for each room they’re redoing. Whether it’s a condo, townhouse or single-family home, she believes that the home is a place for personal inspiration and comfort where people celebrate life with family and friends. “Design is simply the combination of all colors, patterns and fabrics found in your flooring, walls, furniture and artwork,” Fitzsimmons explains. “When I collaborate with clients on design, the outcome is a choreographed and exhilarating dance of color.”
