Kapan Shipman, Senior Interior Designer

Hannah Tindall LEED AP ID+C, Senior Associate Interior Designer

A recent graduate of Iowa State University, Hannah is thrilled to be the most recent addition to Habitar Design. Greatly influenced by a 15 year background in dance, recognizing how humans utilize and move through space has always come naturally to her. Many weekends were spent rearranging and re-organizing her room as a child; Dad always helping out because she was too young to move the furniture herself. Drawing from travels abroad and the nature surrounding her, Hannah finds inspiration in many places. She considers obtaining her LEED accreditation one of her greatest accomplishments.

Karl Sponholtz - Senior Designer

Karl has been designing residential homes and interiors for over 20 years.  His ability to adapt his skills to a wide variety of styles and budgets is his greatest strength.  He’ll tell you that design has always come naturally to him.  He remembers rearranging the furniture in his house when he was 10.  When his parents came home, they were shocked at how great everything looked.  “It really did look better,” he laughs, “And I still use my own house as a laboratory!”  His motto:  “Design is a process and it needs to stay flexible, otherwise we’d have to stop shopping!”

Krzyzstoff Jachym, Carpentry Designer

Krzyzstoff Jachym is a craftsman without limit.   He came to the United States to study Hotel Management but discovered a love of building.  He’s an expert cabinetry maker, finish-carpenter, and tile layer and enjoys almost any construction challenge.  He’s old school when it comes to quality and he contributes creatively to every project.
