Wishing you a wonderful season
Couldn't pass up this beautiful view of the city we love during a night out last month.

Volume 6: June
As a small business owner, my goal is to not only be successful for myself, but for my family, my clients, my staff, and the community. I absolutely love being an interior designer and that job changes and grows with each project and client I work with.
Part of our growth means taking a closer look at what we do, how we do it, and who we are doing it for. Over the last month, there have been some exciting happenings behind the scenes.
Just Around the Corner
In the world of business, change is an ever present constant. In the world of pandemics, pivoting is the skill that is needed to not only survive but succeed. Over the last 15 months, like you, we have experienced both in big and small ways.

Our renewed mission statement:
Kirk Riley Design creates charming and distinctive spaces while incorporating the history of clients' families as well as their home. We specialize in vintage home remodeling projects and facilitate the creation of custom furnishings. Our goal is to infuse the client's style while creating inspired and distinctive spaces. In short, we are here to make things pretty, all while wearing sequins, often with a cocktail in hand.
We also took the time to make some updates to our website. An addition we are really excited about is our new Services page.
Working with an interior designer can seem intimidating and we want to change that concept. The options in working with an interior designer can be a bit of a mystery for those that are new to the experience. For some, there is a fear of not knowing what to expect. This can come in the form of apprehension around the potential cost of a project or perceiving they will need to give up control. All understandable and we look forward to talking through these uncertainties while finding design solutions that fit your needs. Maybe you need “just a little” design help or you aren’t sure how to start. Maybe you feel you need someone to discuss your progress with to make sure you are staying on track. There are packages on our newly created Services page to meet each of these needs when working with Kirk Riley Design. Not every project is all custom furnishings for multiple rooms or a complete remodel, but we love those too.
June is Pride month, so spread the word! It’s a month to support power and inclusion for everyone.
It was uplifting to see the flags and rainbows proudly displayed by national stores while at the local mall – Ben Bridge, Coach and Nordstrom (pictured here) graphics delighted my eyes. A small gesture like that is not so small after all. Showing their support for Pride and the LGBTQ+ community gives customers a way to identify with businesses that have shared values.
Since you can’t see it, our flag is waving in the flowers in our yard, all year long.
