what people are saying
Tamah Burke brought incredible vision & clarity to our new Bainbridge Island condo.
“She listened carefully and truly respected our style, translating it into a home that feels serene, intentional, and perfectly aligned with the Pacific Northwest. Every detail was thoughtfully considered and beautifully suited to the setting. Working with Tamah was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Her attention to detail, organization, and creative eye made the entire process seamless, collaborative, and genuinely enjoyable. We wholeheartedly recommend Color Sanctuary to anyone seeking inspired, professional interior design. Advocating the designs along the way to the contractor in our absence, Tamah was present for all the details. And it was a truly, genuinely enjoyable remodel!”
— Mary
your color choices were spot on!
“We praise you daily. Your color choices were spot on. the outside is light and clean, with an overall feel of calm “color sanctuary,” as you so aptly named your business. The colors blend really well with the roof, the surroundings, the window and door color, and even with the neighbor’s house, as you look up the driveway from the front of our house. In short, you nailed it.”
— BetsyTamah was instrumental in our remodel
“Following the architect, Tamah has designed the finishing elements from suggesting some changes in spatial use as well as assisting with the integrations from wall colors, lighting, fixtures, tile, cabinets & even door knobs. She sourced items for us that we were unable to find and that were much more affordable than those suggested by our contractor. She is a great liaison for change and communication with all trades. She has a great command of how things work with regards to building, renovation, design and color.”
— Dr. HansonTamah understands color as an art and a science.
“She helped us choose three new colors for our house and hit a home run every time. She helped us select new light fixtures, wallpaper, carpets & furniture. I love being in all of our spaces now! Tamah has great creative instincts, and an ability to make a home next-level with color and design.”
— JulieMaterials & Finishes to stand the test of time
“Tamah is terrific to work with and she took our new build project to the next level. The end result was simple, universal, clean & beautiful. She really heard us & understood what we had hoped to accomplish and balanced the design with the construction budget. We look forward to working her again on future projects.”
— JohnFunctional Beautiful spaces!
“I highly recommend Tamah, she is gifted in what she does & is not out to “prove” herself as a “designer”. My time spent with her was invaluable compared to the self inflicted agony & decision paralysis I had created. Her directness & candor was exactly what I needed to move my remodel forward. She has beautiful options in many price points to choose from, and I love that she doesn’t just tell you what you want to hear! She helped me actually see things & understand what she was advocating for & it was in my remodel budget’s best interest. She saved me thousands of dollars & hours of torture.”
— ChrisA keen eye for detail
“Tamah’s passion is clearly design & color. She loves what she does. I’ve appreciated working with her through several color integration consults, two bathroom remodels, and an overview of my home that would improve both the aesthetics & function of my main living areas. I love how Tamah meets you where you are in your design goals, budgets & timetables. She has a keen eye for detail & a sense of how to make a limited space work. Tamah has worked with local contractors & material resources for a long time & brings that knowledge to guide you through your whole process. I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention her good sense of humor & user-friendly consult style.”
