As a child I use to go to my friends' homes and rearrange the furniture in their bedrooms, hang things on the walls and happily create what I thought was a beautiful space. My creative Mom would volunteer her time and efforts freely to friends and family to organize, paint, sew and move heavy things for the pure joy that she got as a result of making a space inviting and fabulous.
If this was a "sickness" we were happy to have it. Lara Lathrop Anderson is the owner of Red Door Interiors and she has been working in interior design for over 20 years as a designer and retailer. She started out in Seattle as an assistant for the award winning interior designer, Rocky Rochon, where she designed and managed high-end residential and commercial projects.
Later, in Portland, OR she primarily focused on commercial design at a contract furniture retailer. Lara moved back to her hometown of Olympia in 2004 and opened up Red Door Home Dcor with her mother in 2006. For 10 years, she and her mother, refurbished furniture and provided design services throughout the community until the shop sold in 2015.

The Dauenhauer's home was extensively damaged in a violent wind storm during the Spring 2017 in East Olympia.
Crest Line Homes was the General Contractor hired to virtually rebuild most of the home.
The bones were good in this classic colonial but the small blocked off rooms were not ideal for todays more open and casual concept that people prefer.
In the end, we created an warm and inviting space that respected the homes traditional history but also added fresher elements and finishes to update the homes overall appeal.

Putnam Master bathroom was very dated to say the least.
Transforming this bathroom was a fun challenge.
The space was small and felt cramped.
I wanted a dramatic change for my clients that would open everything up but still work with the natural wood trim throughout the home and their own taste and sensibilities.
I was successful creating a "Wow" factor by mixing lovely sconces, dramatic metal bronzed mirrors, wood grain tile and natural cherry cabinets.
I designed extra storage in every nook and cranny I could to maximize the storage.
