What impressed me most about Kelly is her ability to listen to the client. She takes the time to understand the scope of the project, the likes/dislikes and tastes of the client. We had discussed the materials to redo an existing bathroom. We were close to deciding on the style. The next day Kelly came to the house with drawings of what we had discussed, in addition to drawings she envisioned based on our conversations. I loved her idea! She doesn't rush. Kelly makes you feel as though you are her only client. Kelly is a credit to her profession.

My house was definitely circa 1990’s until Kelly helped me completely redecorate and update the entire first floor. Master bedroom included. Our home is now, modern, light and bright and we could not be happier. Kelly was fun and easy to work with and did it all on such a reasonable budget with quality materials. Highly recommend her.

After moving into our home, Kelly Whitaker and her company helped us replace all of the window treatments. We installed blinds, shutters and drapes. We are completely happy with everything she did! She listened to everything we wanted and made suggestions where needed. We will call her again if we ever need any help with anything else. We highly recommend her to everyone. A+++

I am a busy executive, with a heavy travel schedule. I recently bought a new home and hired Kelly to decorate and completely outfit my house right down to the Q-tips in the bathroom and corn cobb holders in the kitchen. Kelly was a pleasure to work with during this project and my house looks not only looks fantastic, but she kept the project on-time and within budget. I would highly recommend Kelly whether you have a small or large project and are looking for professionalism and someone to execute your personal design. She can absolutely make a house into a home, for you. John L.

Kelly is an excellent interior designer and project manager. She is very personable, professional and flexible. I had Kelly do several projects at my home and she always went out of her way to make sure things were right. I would highly recommend her.

Kudos to Kelly! She helped me remodel my 5 bedroom home. I have remodeled 5 houses in the past and Design Solutions is by far the most prompt and responsive. You won't go wrong if you choose her.

I contacted Kelly after moving into a brand new home to help get me started on turning a blank slate into a more colorful, eclectic and cozy home for our family. She worked with some of my own ideas and helped unify everything for a cohesive, tied together look. Kelly not only is extremely talented, dedicated to achieving her clients' design goals, and professional in every aspect, but she is also such a sweet person and easy to work with! I sincerely could not recommend her more to anyone looking for a little help to decorating an entire home, as we have with her.
