ABOUT

The Practice
Kate Kelley Designs Inc. is a boutique interior architecture and design firm, specializing in thoughtfully designed residential and commercial spaces. Our services encompass all aspects of the built interior environment - from kitchens, baths and custom cabinetry to furniture, lighting and floor + wall coverings. We focus on a collaborative design process to create custom items unique to each client’s needs. Our projects are managed holistically, respecting the architectural surroundings and environment by creating balanced, sophisticated and timeless interiors.
‘Interior Design is a process in which every decision you make informs the next. Similar to a building that needs a strong foundation to stand on, so do the Interiors need a strong floor plan and layout to build on. A functional layout and strong design concept will build a strong foundation for a successful Interior.’
