Authentic Home Opening Second “Home Store” Near University Village
Authentic Home, a Seattle home decor store and interior style guidance and consulting service, is opening a second "Home Store" near University Village.
Seattle, WA (PRWEB) May 13, 2005 -- Kathy Banak, owner of Authentic Home,
Ltd., a West Seattle interior design and color consultation firm, has announced
plans for the opening of a second Authentic Home the week of May 23, 2005. The
new Authentic Home store will be located just north of University Village and
offers a convenient, accessible location for design and color clients from
Madison Park to Shoreline and beyond. Authentic Home was recently honored by
Northwest Home + Garden Magazine as one of the “123 Best Places To
Shop.”
Like the present Authentic Home location at 7001 California Avenue
SW in West Seattle, the new location, at 2809 N.E. 55th Street, is a classic
Seattle bungalow that will act as a showcase of unique design ideas, textures,
accessories, and drapery and upholstery selections from featured manufacturers.
Clients can walk from room to room in Authentic Home, finding inspiration for
use of color and enhancements in décor. A special grand opening party and open
house has been scheduled for the evening of June 9, from 5:30 to
8:00.
Both locations offer “Interior Style Guidance,” a philosophy that
is the heart of the Authentic Home experience and one that is quite different
from that of traditional interior design firms. Born from a concept that marries
color, fabric and design, “Interior Style Guidance” offers just that - guidance
on how to let the clients’ personalities, interests and lifestyles shape their
environments, instead of offering hard and fast rules on what the designer
thinks the finished outcome should be. Banak says she hopes to dispel the idea
that you have to spend a lot of money to work with an interior designer. She
stresses that her team takes on projects ranging from simple one-hour color
consultations to complete home remodels where they truly act as project
managers.
The starting point for any Authentic Home design is color.
Authentic Home is proud to be a licensed dealer for the Oregon-based Devine
Color® line of paints. The unique Devine Color palette was specifically created
to work with the regional lighting challenges of the Northwest. It also has the
advantages of a yogurt-like consistency that reduces splatter, and almost no
odor, a fact that makes painting more enjoyable. “We use color to bring a space
together. Only then can you begin to work on beauty. Only then can you stand
back with your client and say, as a team, look what we’ve
accomplished!”
Banak is also very excited to note that their web site, www.authentic-home.com, unveiled a new look in mid-April. The
“remodeling” includes before and after photos of clients projects, client
testimonials, expanded products and services, and a virtual tour of the
Authentic Home location in West Seattle, before and after its transformation.
The original Authentic Home is located at 7001 California Ave. SW,
Seattle, WA 98136, phone (206) 937-3070, and features home accessories, custom
window coverings, upholstery fabrics, and Devine Color® paints. The new
Authentic Home is located at 2809 N.E. 55th,Seattle, WA 98105, phone (206)
985-6635. Visit them on the web at www.authentic-home.com.
