$$ Interior Designers & Decorators in Santa Monica, CA

“Neela Woodard was our designer for a kitchen remodel. Initially, she gave us excellent designs drawings for the area in our home. She knows her trade, her materials and colors, and she was resourceful in finding things that we wanted in our new space. She spotted flaws immediately and helped to rectify the situation, whether it was communicating with our contractor or exchanging damaged items which we ordered. She is easy to work with and with whom to consult. Bottom line: we love our new kitchen. We highly recommend her if you are considering her services.”

“We can't rave enough about Kita Williams of KMW Interiors! We hired Kita to furnish and decorate our 5-bedroom contemporary Mediterranean home and redesign our backyard. After interviewing three other designers, Kita stood out for her exceptional style, ease of collaboration, and cost-effectiveness. Kita's talent for crafting warm and inviting spaces shines through in every aspect of her work. Her dedication to understanding her clients' tastes, aesthetics, & budgets is unparalleled. She presents options quickly, works with her client on revisions, and then sources high-quality materials at reasonable prices. Kita's expertise in software and traditional design methods ensures that clients can visualize their finished space. Kita expertly managed custom work throughout our home, leveraging her network of skilled vendors for everything from custom furniture, to re-upholstery, to art framing. She designed our family room sofa & formal living room pieces to fit our vision perfectly, & her vendors delivered high-quality results quickly & within budget. Notable other projects include a custom wood sofa table (which we love for family movie nights) and a seamless Murphy bed design in our guest room that looks like it came with the house, as well as a full renovation and re-design of our powder bathroom. She also transformed our wine cellar into a multi-purpose drink space, perfectly executed by her team. Kita's work extended beyond the interior, as she oversaw our backyard renovation, selecting a contractor, designing the space, and choosing materials and furniture. Her attention to detail and ability to troubleshoot (inevitable) issues ensured a seamless & on-time completion. The result is an incredible outdoor space perfect for intimate gatherings and large-scale entertaining that we will enjoy for years to come. Kita's design services truly gave us our dream home. We highly recommend her exceptional talent, work ethic, and dedication to clients.”

“I recently had the pleasure of working with Denise Richards from DRichards Interiors to renovate my 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo in a high-rise, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results. After researching several high-end interior designers, I discovered Denise, whose reputation and 40+ years of experience immediately stood out. From our first meeting, I was impressed by her professionalism and expertise. Denise has an undeniable mastery of design, and it was evident from the moment she showed me some of her past projects. I had the privilege of visiting a few showrooms with her, and I was blown away by how much she knew about each space. It was clear that Denise has an exceptional eye for detail, and she knows exactly how to transform a space into something extraordinary. Throughout the process, Denise communicated wonderfully, listening to my ideas and providing thoughtful suggestions that helped guide my decisions. She has a great talent for blending style with functionality, and her ideas were both creative and practical, which made the entire experience seamless. She presented materials that were of the highest quality, and every selection felt both appropriate and imaginative, elevating the space in ways I hadn’t even considered. Thanks to Denise's vision, my condo now feels like a luxurious, personalized retreat, and I’m beyond satisfied with the outcome. If you’re looking for a top-tier interior designer, I highly recommend DRichards Interiors – Denise truly excels in every aspect of the design process.”
