Quiet Coast llc is a custom Home Design & Interiors company created by Interior Designer & Artist, Kim Hoppe. Kim has over 13 years of professional Interior Design experience, specializing in full-scale remodels, kitchen and bathroom design, space planning, construction documents and selecting fixtures and finishes.

Originally from Idaho, Kim earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Interior Design from the CIDA-accredited program at the University of Idaho, where she also studied Architecture and Art. She began her career at multi-disciplinary architecture firm, G.G.L.O. in Seattle Washington, which focused on large-scale multi-family housing and high-end residential design.

Following her passion for historic home preservation, Kim moved to the quaint seaport town of Port Townsend, Wa. Prior to starting Quiet Coast, Kim spent 4 years working under the tutelage of Port Townsend Architect, Cate Comerford, where she had the pleasure of working on many beautiful historic homes, notably the 1865 Fowler house (the oldest stick-built house in Port Townsend), the 1873 Learned House and restoration projects at Fort Worden Historical State Park. The range of work also consisted of new construction home design, additions and ADUs. Taking each project from concept to construction documents and following up with construction administration.

Quiet Coast llc was started in 2019 to continue Kim’s passion for thoughtful design, while implementing her artistic vision on projects: We work with clients to help them visualize & design their new home or bring creative solutions to an existing one. We enjoy the challenge of revitalizing & upgrading older homes with new energy efficient technologies & modern layouts, while preserving any original character & charm. Our intention for each project is to integrate the client’s unique needs with a thoughtful, artistic vision to creates spaces that evoke feelings of joy, beauty and love.

Kim now resides in the beautiful coastal town of Carpinteria, CA (& still works remotely on PNW projects) where she plans to continue her passion for designing and remodeling charming coastal homes. An Artist by nature, Kim is also a painter (www.kimhoppe.net) and has recently been working on large-scale murals. Check out CUTEHOUS visions, which combines Kim’s passion for art with home design. When she’s not working, you will most likely find her at the local surf spot or strolling around town taking 35mm photos of charming, old houses and posting them here: @cutehouseonfilm
