about the Recoverie
Kimberly Atlas Harrington, Principal Designer
Also known by family as Kiki, Kimberly was raised in Houston, Texas near her two grandmothers and one great-grandmother who lived to 109 years-old. These fabulous ladies undoubtedly influenced Kimberly's decorative style with their flamboyance and flair for the dramatic in both their decor and personal style. Kimberly later honed her skills for color and composition while attending the University of Colorado, Boulder, completing a BFA in Fine Arts and Art History.
Living in New York City for 6 years exposed Kimberly to unparalleled inspiration for her craft. She worked for international photographer, Mark Seliger, when he was Chief Rolling Stone Photographer and at Oprah Magazine in the photo department. Later, she focused on developing a small jewelry company called Pink Rock, NYC. Her hand made jewelry was featured on Daily Candy, NYC and in InStyle Weddings and sold in boutiques across the USA, Mexico and Europe.
The mid-2000s, when Kimberly until returned to Houston, to her roots, brought exciting change to Houston, with top-tier art exhibitions, chef driven restaurant openings, and a new focus on high design. It was a sort of inner-city renaissance for Kimberly's hometown, that brought with it, the sort of clientele interested in living in beautiful, inspired spaces.
Kimberly is married to a patent attorney she met while living in NYC and mother of three darling daughters, all of whom were born in Houston. She loves to entertain family and friends with elaborate dinners and parties and is always searching HAR.com for her next house/project.
The Recoverie Interiors
Was born of necessity. With so many friends moving back to Houston, Kimberly was always using her experience in construction to renovate and then furnish the homes of friends and family. Other clients, known to Kimberly through word-of-mouth were soon to request her services, and she never looked back. Her passion and motivation to keep busy set off a considerably prolific career in full service interior design. The Recoverie Interiors was born.
Focusing on good design principles and livability, The Recoverie incorporates family friendly finishes to ensure years of enjoyment with kids and fur babies, without the worry. The Recoverie operates from the belief that good design is worth investing in and will bring so much enjoyment that the sting of the investment will be short-lived and the pleasure brought by the surrounding will live for many years, making a space a home.
The Recoverie is based in West University, TX, an enclave within the city of Houston, near Rice University.
