01 Meet Karen
Hi, I am Karen founder of Your Ethical Home.
I started this company because of my passion for interior design and the overwhelming feeling that I have a duty to play a part in protecting our precious planet. One room, one home, at a time.
It is my aim to bring a multi-sensory experience into your home, based on principles inspired by nature, using ethical materials and sustainable products.
I have owned, renovated and designed homes for nearly 25 years. I have a Diploma in Interior Design and I’m currently studying for a BA(Hons) Degree Interior Design.
My career path started in the corporate world as an accountant, so I have plenty of experience in managing people, projects and most importantly, the budgets. Learn more

03 Working together
It’s really important for me to get to know about you, your family and to understand how your house works for you all.
The framework for the key stages, from start to completion, tend to follow this path (although there will be additional steps in between, depending on the project);
Stage 01:
-
In depth discussions
-
Gathering the vital measurements
-
Our initial conversation around colour, textures and layouts
-
Concept boards and drawings
-
Mood boards, materials and furniture
Stage 02:
If you require a full service, this will start on approval of the designs.
-
A timescale report
-
Booking suitable tradespersons
-
On site, or virtual, visits and meetings scheduled
-

04 Why choose Your Ethical Home?
The benefits that nature can have on our well being are widely known. We live ever increasingly busy lives. Often we don’t come into contact with nature for days, or weeks. Think of all those amazing nature benefits you and your family could be missing out on.
Are you working long hours in the corporate world and crave a relaxing environment to come to home to, where you can experience the benefits of nature? I’ve been there. I understand the exhaustion and longing to be out in the fresh air.
Do you desire a beautiful, magazine worthy, home but don’t have the time, or know how to create a scheme using the principles inspired by nature? I’m excited to help guide you create the unique home of your dreams.
Do you care about the planet and want to live in an ethical home, based on values, sustainability and minimal toxins? I think we will be great friends and can work together to improve the future of home interiors, for the next generation.
If you’d like to learn more about bringing nature into your home, or you’re ready to take on your next home project, please book a call with me.
I look forward to finding out how I can help connect you all with nature through your home.
