Reviews of Kimball Starr Interior Design (Interior Designer)

Barbara White

Excellent product selection and in-store customer service. Max and Gerardo delivered and assembled the items I purchased -- they were on time, friendly, and highly professional. I am very happy with my bed frame and mirror and appreciate the thoughtful and efficient services.

After a great deal of research via phone and emails of other designers in the SF Bay Area, finding Kimball was finding a light in the darkness! A fairly small project in terms of space, I really needed help transforming my "hold everything" mess of a room into a functional home office for me and my husband AND a baby space. It was an odd project that required a great deal of patience for the few things we knew we needed and wanted, alongside creativity and ingenuity to work in the things Kimball could see we needed. Kimball afforded us the luxury of asking questions of someone who could hold a master plan in her head, without being judgmental (something other designers I spoke with weren't very good at)l. She listened to both our ideas on taste, talked to us about our favorite stores, and respected our budget. And, with great kindness, she let me sit on the project when I got pregnant in the middle of it and decided to hold off for months on finishing the baby half until I was really ready to do so. Now, just a few weeks from the expected arrival of our little one, the room is functional, sweet, attractive and modern. You will never find a professional more amenable to working with you on your terms than Kimball!

This was my first time using Kimball Starr Interior Design. It really turned out to be a great experience and a fabulous value. We worked with Kendall and she was super responsive and we are so happy with the outcome.

Kimball Starr is a talented interior designer. We decided to invest some money to enhance our apartment and Kimball provided several, well thought out ideas for us to chose from (all within our budget: love that!). I couldn't be happier with the process and the end result. I look forward to working with Kimball on future projects!

Highly recommend Kimball's design services. We initially contracted with another designer who did not care to listen to our input. Kimball was a breath of fresh air after that experience. She worked with us to spruce up our living room and second bedroom, and to create a lush, inviting bar room with exactly the look/feel we wanted. We were a challenge because my husband and I have very different design tastes (#understatement), but Kimball was so great at listening to what each of us wanted and providing options that would appeal to us both, and coached us along until a compromise could be met. We worked together for many months (mainly due to slowness on our end) and she was always available to us -- whether it was consultations at home, going to the design center to pick out fabrics or tile, or putting us in touch with contractors for new built-in shelving. We really valued and trusted Kimball's experience, advice, and suggestions throughout our project. I look forward to our next project together!

Kimball helped us select furniture for our living room. As an interior designer, I believe her greatest skill set is her ability to listen and incorporate the styles of her customers. Sam, my fiancé, and I each had our own unique style. Kimball blended our decorative styles, adding a sophisticated touch. She is very patient, flexible, and friendly. We went through 3 different living room layouts and looked at several couches before we found the look we loved. She gives excellent and honest feedback. I was really thankful to have her by my side at furniture show rooms because she knew the right questions to ask and is very knowledgeable about her industry. Redesigning a room with Sam was very meaningful experience for me. It is symbolic of our new journey together and we thank Kimball for the great kick-off.
