A Fashion Sensibility
Interiors composed like a couture collection
Turner's goal as a design professional is to provide her clients with satisfaction, balance, order, esthetics, productivity, challenge, and abundance. She personally understands the effects an environment can have on one's life or business, and develops surroundings that play a valuable role in the life her clients want to lead.
Turner has also added home décor product design to her repertoire with Livvy & Neva, a fashionable vintage and contemporary pillow collection named by House Beautiful to its roster of the best home stores in America.

Client Perspective
Hear from the people who matter
“We have a sense of what we like, not cookie cutter, not off the wall, and Keita is really good at interpreting that and making it look beautiful.”
“Keita worked with me to find out my key wants, wishes and can't-do-withouts. I am so happy with the beautifully finished spaces. She is a great designer, but she is also a fantastic listener.”
“Keita transformed an apartment that needed a lot of work into a must-have, beautiful apartment. Thanks to her keen eye, we received several offers, sight unseen.”
“She has an ability to conceive of not only what works, but also what is beautiful, integrating form, material and color in surprising and pleasant ways. I couldn't be more pleased.”
