Meet Kara McGlone

Founder & Interior Designer

I’ve always appreciated the spaces around me, even from a young age cherishing my bedroom and the sentimental feeling it evoked. The path of creativity I was destined to take and Kanari Home is where I have finally arrived - a homecoming.

It was after studying Interior and Building Design and having my two girls that the idea for my own design business was formed. In 2015, this vision became a reality with the creation of Dezign Muse – a studio focused on helping people transform their homes and commercial spaces with purposeful design and considered interior styling. This has since evolved into Kanari Home - a true reflection of my purpose to create deeply connected spaces that feel layered and lived-in through the curation of old and new. Colour is also weaved throughout all my designs, grounded in psychology to intentionally make a positive impact in each space.

I want my clients to be proud of their homes and entertain in their beautiful spaces. I collaborate closely with each client to create a sanctuary that is calming, inviting and uniquely theirs, ready for their own story to unfold.

I have a particular passion for renovation projects - starting with something existing that is rich with history and the challenge of boundaries that each old home has. The transformation in bringing old spaces back to life is where my talent lies - interiors with depth and a story to tell is what you’ll experience with Kanari Home.
