Kelly Keiser Interior Design

Kelly Keiser Interior Design & Decoration just finished remodeling my place and all I can say is wow. It started as an apartment and finished as a penthouse! Kelly and her team supervised complete carpet tear out, hardwood floor restoration, full painting, furniture removal and donation, and a complete over haul. She chose options based on my style for all rooms. She completely designed each and every nook and cranny of my place covering 2 bedrooms, living room, dining room, kitchen, common area, and outdoor patio, roof deck. She took care of every detail including details right down to bottle openers, candles, and containers. She event painted some art work herself to highlight some rooms. The only downside of the project being over is I don't get to see her anymore because she is a delight.

I have had the extreme pleasure of working with Kelly Keiser on two projects – my Russian Hill flat and my Pacific Heights office. Kelly’s design aesthetic is brilliant. She coordinated and brought together new pieces to complement the existing furniture we had shipped from England. It was no easy task but she pulled it off with grace and confidence. Kelly created a beautiful space for us with high quality pieces on time and on budget. I love her sense of style. Kelly is also very fun to work with because she exudes positivity in the middle of a project and keeps the flow going. More importantly, she has a sense of humor. My new office looks stunning and everyone who comes in loves it. I could not have made the transition to this office without Kelly. I expect we will work together on another project in the future. I give Kelly Keiser my highest recommendation. She is an amazing designer.

When I come home every day and love our house, I know it is because of Kelly. Kelly is a delightful, tremendously talented and highly competent designer. My husband and I hired her to help with interior decoration for our first home, but she became an invaluable resource to us throughout the entire remodeling project. Kelly took great care to understand our design aesthetic with thorough review of concept boards, samples, and in-person design meetings, always working around our tight schedules and within our budget. She helped us select pieces that are elegant, comfortable and durable. She always considered our pet and desire to have a family in our decisions. Kelly also understood our love of antiques. She helped us to purchase them as well as select and refinish several pieces of our own – all of which came together beautifully. Kelly has a very special talent for color and she guided us through the selection of a stunning palate of “new neutral”, VOC-free paint colors. One of the things that I love most about Kelly is that she notices things that I don’t. She always demands the highest quality products and performance, and has helped us develop the stamina to do the same! Kelly has gone out of her way to resolve an issue with our couch and required that our front door be re-sanded and re-painted to meet her standard. Kelly also took on the role of master visionary with our contractors in a time of serious need. She helped us re-select plumbing and lighting fixture, design a Trex deck and designed our fireplace, among many other things. Kelly's knowledge of marble was critical, as this material is center-stage in our home. She met us at the yard to select slabs, oversaw placement and ensured a beautiful thickness and edge finish. She also helped us find a vendor to permanently seal our marble – a decision that has made all of the difference in the usability of our kitchen. She did all of this entering a high-pressure team mid-stream.

We hired the services of Kelly Keiser Interior Design and Decoration Fall of 2012 upon returning to San Francisco after living in London, England for 4 years. Our family of five was moving back into a former Colonel’s home in the historic Presidio. We were looking to achieve the warmth and sophistication often seen in English homes without compromising the military charm of our historic house. We wanted this to be a place where guests and family felt comfortable and enjoyed the quirkiness and color scattered throughout the house. Kelly designed the main entertaining rooms, offices and bedrooms in our house. She sourced stunning drapery and upholstery fabric, wallpaper, lamp fixtures, as well as antique and contemporary furniture. She was very talented at marrying old and new pieces of different styles and was unafraid of color! Kelly's work ethic, creative eye and professionalism stood out immediately. No job or request was too difficult and she was very open minded and ready to think outside the box when needed. Kelly communicated beautifully and kept our project moving along which made the whole process seamless. It was a harmonious relationship and one I would gladly do again with her help! Thanks to Kelly, we are living in a home with that we love as much as those who come and visit!

I have worked with Kelly on three projects in the last ten years. She is delightful, professional, and most importantly (to me) she is responsive and has a deep respect for her client's time and timeframe. She knows I love to play designer but that I don't have quite the professional eye or free time to do a great job and so I found her to be a really great teammate - someone who works really hard to get inside the client's head and heart and deliver what they'll love. And to that point, she does prioritize function in your space so you don't just get a beautiful result, but a live able one. Love Kelly!

Kelly was able to produce a beautiful business esthetic with very little direction. She is a joy to work with, knowledgeable and has a wonderful eye for both function and beauty.

My wife and I loved working with Kelly Keiser Interior Design & Decoration. She was a valuable resource for us during our renovation, and then afterward when we furnished our house. We're very pleased with the results and we would recommend her to anyone that needs design and decoration help.

Kelly Keiser did an amazing job on my residential and commercial design projects. She spent more time than I expected understanding my needs and helping me formulate a vision for both spaces. Beyond her amazing aesthetic she has a great business process that never leaves you guessing where you are on your project.

We're having the pleasure to work with Kelly on one of her interior design projects right now. What we love most with Kelly is her ability to understand and express what her client is looking for. She can easily spot five pieces from the hundred artworks on display at Lost Art Salon and sure enough the colors, subjects and the story created mix in total harmony. It helps that Kelly has a great knowledge of art in general and a flair for beauty.

We have recently had the pleasure of collaborating with Kelly on a custom fabrication project. She came to us with a request to fabricate a large marble top dining table for her client. Kelly was respectful of our process, was a great communicator and available for any questions or clarifications we needed to best facilitate this process between our shop and her client's expectations. We highly recommend Kelly, she is a true professional and we look forward to partnering with her on future projects!

Kelly is fantastic! We live in a 3 bedroom/2 bath and we were looking for some help. Kelly came in and walked through every room (including our outside space) and brainstormed with us about new accessories, positioning of furniture, placement of art, addition of bar cart and more. We have already implemented her ideas and our friends and family are raving about the new additions. Kelly just freshened the place up! I wish I had a bigger project for her but, alas, we just rent not own, so we're just grateful for her truly unbelievable eye. Her ideas and suggestions have made me fall in love with my home again! I am definitely referring KK to friends and family.

Kelly transformed my country house, giving it an unexpected feeling of subtle elegance and sophistication. Making excellent use of the space came naturally to Kelly. Understanding my personal style right away, she maintained design elements that were essential to me, while delivering her own unique touch. Regular seasonal updates give a fresh feel to the space and I know the space will feel brighter and more refined each time Kelly revisits.
