Symphony Showhouse: Designer Digs

“Fruhauf was the first designer to respond to the Women’s Association’s 2014 initial inquiry to former showhouse designers to participate in the Designers’ Digs tour. She was designing her family’s newly constructed home at the time in the Hawthorne development in east Wichita. Sinc”e then, she and her husband, Kenny, purchased and moved into a 1948-built home in Eastborough, but she was still eager to participate.

“I love mixing glam with rustic weathered pieces,” Fruhauf said. Tour-goers will see that in her home’s master bathroom, the only room the Fruhaufs totally renovated when they moved into the house. 

She also likes to add pops of whimsical elements, like a silver stag head in the sun room that doubles as her office, and decorate with elements that hold sentimental value, such as several pieces of artwork created by her daughter, Olivia Grant, and artwork that belonged to her mother-in-law. A bonus for tour-goers looking for design inspiration and for her business is that most of the furniture in her home is from lines that she carries as an interior designer. 

“I can’t wait to go through the other homes to get inspired and see the pieces that make them smile,” Fruhauf said. “I respect everyone’s style. There’s no right or wrong way to decorate.” "
