Minima Organizing & Redesign

09/24/2025

"We're excited to feature Kristen and her Richmond home, a thoughtful re-adaptation of a 1914 residence that balances modern preferences with historic character. Central to her approach is what she calls warm minimalism—a design ethos where natural textures and materials bring depth and richness to minimalism. In this conversation, Kristen shares how that philosophy shaped her remodel, why she chose Sisal Tiles for her home office, and how intentional design choices create spaces that are both functional and authentic."

Minima's Kristen Ziegler shares her warm minimalism philosophy, her Richmond home, and why sisal tiles fit her intentional design.

"We used Minima services for our move-in, focusing on the kitchen and master bathroom. I wasn't sure if it was a good use of our resources, but the finished job has changed my mind. Even my husband, a skeptic, at the end had changed his mind. The team of four was able to set up my rather large kitchen and master bathroom in six hours, and even had time to quickly rearrange one of the master bedroom closets. The team was professional and easy to have in our house and I highly recommend."

"Highly recommend. Fixed so many problems that seemed insurmountable individually. Sometimes you just need outside help to tackle those nagging organizational problems."

"I've worked with Minima for years and had a great 'tune-up' visit this week. Alex and Johnna are cheerful and highly skilled. My study and dresser had crept beyond simple clean up so we did paper sorting (the hardest for me) and a clothing sort and fold. Somehow this generated four bags to donate and two to shred! My home and my being are lighter and happier. Thank you!"

"Kristen is so thoughtful, patient, and observant. I'm a pretty organized and tidy person, but Kristen was able to see things I could not see. She really helped bring a more cohesive energy to my space. She has a way of bringing unity and harmony to any space—which is not an easy task in my 400 sq ft apartment! Plus, she is just a lovely human being—a joy to work with! I highly recommend Minima Organizing and Redesign!"
