Studio J. Kessler Interior Design

First of all, Alisha Taylor is probably one of the nicest people I have ever met! That said, working with Alisha and her team has been nothing but wonderful. When we moved into our new house we needed quite a bit of furniture and window treatments. Way too overwhelming for me!! I interviewed a few interior designers and knew Alisha was going to be my choice the minute we met! She is very professional but also SO easy to work with and talk to. I pretty much trusted Alisha to design our rooms without too much input from me. Decorating is just not my forte!! She took the time to know us and our taste and usually hit everything spot on! If there was something that we didn't like or if it was a price point issue, I always felt very comfortable letting her know. She always was more than happy to give us other options. This was very important to me. That said, three years later we are still working on our house and Alisha is now designing our master bedroom. We couldn't be more excited to see this next phase of our update. It's going to be beautiful! My husband and I (who was very reluctant to get an interior designer and is now a huge fan of Alisha's), highly recommend Alisha Taylor Interiors for your decorating needs. She truly created our dream house and continues to do so!!

Between an intense work schedule and life in general, I had been living in a new NYC studio apartment for almost 5 months and still had unpacked boxes sitting on the floor and mismatched furniture pieces that didn’t make sense in this space. With Jackie’s help, it not only looks like I now live in this apartment, but it is more “me” than any other space I have ever lived in. Not to mention that knowing the importance of needing to finally feel settled after all that time of living in an unfinished apartment, Jackie got me in check within just a month - working with me to understand my vision, developing a mood board that genuinely made me feel excited of how my home could look, and designing the space with careful measurement so that it maximized functionality without sacrificing style. I was so impressed by Jackie's process, creativity, professionalism, and overall encouragement to really go for it even when I was doubting what I ultimately wanted. The end result was all of my eclectic, traditional, shabby-chic dreams coming true in a way that I never could have put together without her. She's the best of the best, so if you want to get your home done and "done right" the first time, she's your girl!

I sought Kim out after seeing her beautiful designs on Instagram. I have been working with her for over two years now on my custom new build home and don’t know where I would be without her. I consult her every step of the way and so far everything has turned out more beautiful than I can imagine (we are currently living in the home, and all of the hard design is finished, i.e. flooring, lighting, hardware, cabinetry, bathrooms, etc.). Kim’s knowledge and expertise make every decision easy and quick. She is extremely easy to work with when it comes to tweaking design and making sure that everything suits my style, but also holds firm when she knows something is not the right choice and provides a clear explanation why that is totally understandable. I will not even pick out cabinetry hardware without her help and plan on utilizing her until my house is completely finished and furnished. Thank you Kim for being the best in the business, super responsive, creative and just a wonderful human being. *Photos to come soon!

Kim is a one of a kind decorator. Kim listens to what you want in your space and she delivers. She shows up on time and her installs are incredible. I wanted a modern California casual interior in Los Gatos and she did just that. She initially decorated inside and then extended it to our pool cabana and backyard as well. So many other designers are not willing to look at what the clients want, but Kim does. I talked to five designers around here and no one compares to Kim. I wanted to do this design once, and she delivered the first time. I wish I had 5 homes I could have her decorate. If you choose Kim to do your work you will not be disappointed. She over delivers and is amazing to work with.

I used Alisha Taylor for a new home we built. We had previously built our two previous homes. This was our first time using a designer, and it helped us SO much! Alisha helped in creating the home we dreamed of. After we had initial plans, she offered so many suggestions that improved the home design. We could not be more pleased with the final product. Alisha and her team exceeded our hopes with the materials, finishes, all the way down to the final furnishings, every single detail was thought of. It was so helpful to have one place to go for everything instead of driving around to many places choosing everything ourselves. Would highly recommend Alisha Taylor Interiors!
