Kristy made the process easy and safe from finding property, design of the home and picking out all finishes and paint. The home is solid and well built. Brian was easy to work with during the build process. Both Kristy and Brian are always available. After the closing we had some on going appliances issues that Kristy helped us work thru. We would build with Keene Homes Inc again.

I am proud to share my home with people because of Charmean's design. People describe my home as -…read morecomfortable, welcoming, family friendly with the perfect touch of elegance, well thought out, relaxing. Charmean designed my living and family rooms, master bedroom, full remodel of the powder and master bathrooms, and color tones for the remaining parts of the house. She was quick, and efficient both financially and with time. She had approximately 3 months to transform the house before we moved and and had our baby, and she made it happen! She recommended our General Contractor (was was excellent!) and they communicated with each other, never having to involve me in the stress of change orders or issues. She was very mindful of our budget and and advised us on where we should spend our money on materials and furniture. I love how each piece of furniture is unique to our house, compliments each other, and is durable. Charmean created a beautiful flow for our house, using a warm and soothing color palette. She layered patterns and textures in each room. We love CNI's work so much that we intend to continue to work with Charmean to remodel the our kitchen, mud room, and bonus living area in the future.

I seriously wish I could give more than 5 stars for this review. We have used Kristen twice now,…read morefirst to help us maximize space and design for our current condo and another time picking out colors for our new place. Both times she has been responsive, knowledgeable, and an overall joy to work with. For our first project, Kristen walked through our home and listened to us talk about pain points and wishlist items. She took pictures and later came back to us with an extensive report detailing how we could better meet our design goals using colors, furniture placement, and even creative projects. I love that she incorporates feng shui into her plans so that not only does the space look better, it feels better too! Anytime I had a question about paint colors, hardware choices, etc. I could simply text her and get her advice. She truly provides an ongoing service allowing you to do your project on your time. For our color consultation, Kristen again walked through our new place and provided thoughts on color combos and how they best flow from room to room. We've gotten lots of compliments about our color choices and she made it so easy. The most amazing thing was that she helped coordinate with our flooring provider to ensure everything matches. Kristen is amazing and would absolutely recommend her services!

UPDATE 7-6-22 Well that was a little salty!…read more Becky did contact me immediately upon her reading the review, which is why it's now two stars (I am always going to give credit where it's due!). Her primary request was for me to change the rating and review, not about my concerns (this is where a simple "we can absolutely get her some training and do this better" would have been handy) After talking with her, I said I would be very happy to wait and work with them in June and update the review and the rating based on that experience. Well, June is here and I didn't hear from them, but I guess I know now why I didn't And that's too bad because I was actually looking forward to it. I wish them the best.

I stopped by Foundry 317 during a recent jaunt through Broad Ripple during unseasonably warm temps…read more I parked my car and just enjoyed wheeling around the area for a bit. Foundry 317 is along the canal right on Westfield Boulevard. Foundry 317 focuses on home decor and furniture. I clearly arrived right at the tail-end of the holiday season and a good number of the items either had a holiday theme or fit within the holiday season. Items included antiques, one-of-a-kind furniture pieces, festive accents, candles, and other overall housing items. Foundry 317 has a parking lot, though I was actually wheeling there. There's a small ramp up to the sidewalk if you approach it from the right (facing Foundry 317). The doorway is pretty workable and I found the interior to be surprisingly accessible (though I will admit I was taking extra caution given some of the prices!). As I was wheeling, I knew it was pretty unlikely I'd actually buy anything on this visit as it would have been difficult to carry back to my car. However, I definitely saw some items I loved and can easily see myself returning in the near future. The employee I encountered was friendly, the environment was warm and inviting, and I really loved some of the smaller items. I'm a candle freak and definitely would like to return for those. I've always found this section of Westfield Blvd. a little hit-and-miss. The sidewalk is kind of cracked and it's somewhat uneven, however, there's much to love here and I loved the efforts toward accessibility. This is definitely a little gem. I'd seen it before, however, I've never been by when they were open. I finally got the chance to visit, and I'm definitely impressed. I'll be back.
