Welcome to Inspired Home Resources ~
Thoughtful Support for Your Home Transformation
Are you planning––or currently navigating––a renovation, redesign, or home transformation? You might be exploring color palettes, materials, or layout ideas with the intention to have a space that feels more harmonious, functional, and aligned with your personal style. Or perhaps you’re simply looking for a smoother, more efficient process.
I partner with clients who may not be working with a full-scale interior designer but still want experience, thoughtful support. Whether you’re tackling a single room or a whole-home refresh, I work to bring a calm, solutions-focused approach to every phase of the project.
…specializing in the art of spatial problem-solving—translating vision into function while honoring beauty and flow. With clear, mindful communication, I help navigate design decisions and, when needed, act as a liaison between you and your contractors to ensure a cohesive, high-quality result.
From selecting the perfect paint color to space planning, visiting showrooms, managing reupholstery, or refining finishes, we’ll explore the options that best serve your lifestyle—and bring your space to life in a way that feels inspired, intentional, and uniquely yours.
Services:
• Color Schemes & Paint Selection
• Furniture & Materials Coordination
• Project Process Consulting & Support
Color and design speak a language of their own—one that can uplift, inspire, energize, or soothe. But with endless choices at your fingertips, transforming a space—whether starting fresh or refining what's already there—can quickly feel overwhelming.
That’s where thoughtful collaboration makes all the difference.
With a trained eye and an intuitive approach, I help bring your vision into focus. From selecting the perfect paint palette to choosing between new or reupholstered furniture—and even enhancing the way we communicate throughout the process—I’m here to guide each element into alignment. The goal? To create a space that feels harmonious, authentic, and unmistakably yours.
A well-designed home is more than just beautiful—it’s grounding. It brings clarity, cultivates inspiration, and fosters a sense of peace. When our surroundings reflect our truest selves, we create not just physical space, but mental space—making room for new ideas, deeper creativity, and a stronger connection to what truly matters, both at home and in life.
Testimonials ~ What Clients are Saying
"Connie had a great sense for the look and feel I wanted in each room and made the color selection process so easy—I still love the colors we chose. Additionally, she is very skilled at communicating with contractors, which took so much stress off my shoulders with the bathroom remodels. I usually dread anything related to remodeling or design, but with Connie, the entire process became smooth, enjoyable, and even fun.”
— Eliza Menzel
“The best part about working with Connie is that she truly listens and understands what I want. She 'gets' design - color, texture, scale, and style - and how the pieces need to work together. She understands how the colors need to flow and blend and create a mood, and she knows which colors will achieve the desired effect. Connie makes what could be an overwhelming, tedious process feel fun and creative. I highly recommend her.”
— Liz Myers
About Connie Pappas
Founder, Inspired Home Resources
Connie’s passion for spatial planning and color design began early. Raised in the building industry, she designed her first bedroom at just seven years old—an experience that sparked a lifelong love for creating beautiful, functional spaces. Over the years, she often accompanied her father on new construction projects, where she learned the ins and outs of the building and design industries, and was invited to share design ideas, collaborating on finishes and color schemes.
Her creative foundation was shaped by formal education in both 2D and 3D art, including studies at the Lorenzo de’ Medici Institute in Florence (through Fairfield University) and training at the Art Students League in New York. There, she apprenticed under a sculptor whose work is now part of the Smithsonian’s collection. Alongside her artistic training, Connie managed her own renovation and design projects, with friends and acquaintances regularly seeking her guidance—leading to what naturally became a full-time collaboration with homeowners.
Through this work, she uncovered a rare gift: an exceptional sense of spatial awareness and color harmony—what colleagues call an “engineering eye,” the ability to visualize and refine spaces in three dimensions. This technical skill, combined with her intuitive design sensibility and deep appreciation for people’s stories, became the foundation of her practice.
Connie holds a degree in Social Science and the Arts from SLCollege and a Personal Coaching Certification from NYU. With over 20 years of one-on-one experience, she blends artistic vision with mindfulness and practical insight—helping clients bring clarity to their spaces and confidence to their decisions.
From this unique blend of experience and values, Inspired Home Resources was born. Connie’s approach is rooted in listening, honoring each client’s voice, and co-creating environments that feel authentic, harmonious, and deeply personal.
