Sara Noble
Principle

Snake Logo

Sara started Noble Designs 19 years ago.  It has grown to a thriving Kansas City design firm with national recognition. She believes that design is and should be fun, so she works hard to make sure projects are not only effective but enjoyable.  Sara has a love of plumbing and tile, so she thrives working on new builds and large remodels, but has fun with finishing touches as well. Her unique design perspective is carried throughout the firm.  

Sara describes her style as simple but elegant, classic with a modern twist. She’s a little bit preppy, admires the classic but fresh style of Kate Spade and Jackie Kennedy and wants that feel in the spaces she designs. She’s obsessed with gold and green, loves fretwork, greek keys, polka dots and bows – but not all together!
