HAVAN Spotlight: Cara Hansen

Cara Hansen Triple Dot Design

 

🎙️ Check out Cara’s episode on HAVAN’s podcast ‘Measure Twice, Cut Once’

Tell us about yourself & your company?
Cara: My Name is Cara and I am the owner and principal designer at Triple Dot Design Studio. We are a boutique design firm that specializes in high end residential design. We strive to make spaces that have a comfortable, casual livability to them while being extremely functional and beautiful.

How did you get into the residential construction industry?
Cara: I grew up in the construction industry, my dad was a contractor and built all my childhood homes. I witnessed many houses being built from the ground up. I could always be found helping out my Dad on site or absorbing the beautiful house plans that were around the house. I absolutely loved walking through a framed house and picturing what it was going to be when it was done and what each shell of a room was going to be. So naturally my path found its way to interior design.

What keeps you in the industry?
Cara: I absolutely love making positive impacts on people’s lives and spaces. You get to meet and work with so many wonderful people to make other people’s dreams come true!

It’s 11AM Saturday morning, what are you up to?
Cara: Eating brunch at our favourite local restaurant.

What are your hobbies?
Cara: Eating good food, spending time with my sisters & partner, exploring the north shore mountains, reading a good book. Cooking or baking something delicious.

Proudest moment?
Cara: Winning my HAVAN & Georgie Awards

Best work perk at your job?
Cara: Being my own boss

Share an interesting fact about your life?
Cara: I knew I wanted to be an interior designer since I started high school at 13

Starbucks order?
Cara: Earl Grey Tea with milk and Honey

Song on repeat right now?
Cara: Drivers License – Olivia Rodrigo

Where were you born?
Cara: North Vancouver

Favourite holiday / destination?

Does pineapple belong on pizza?
