### Business highlights

- Provides 3D Visualization

Regarding Design is woman-owned and operated by founder, Kelly Caruso. Kelly is an interior designer who listens and follows her clients' needs and feelings to drive the design. She provides clients with a variety of design services both locally and virtually - from space planning to material selection to full-home interior design.

At Regarding Design we believe first and foremost in the power of creating a sense of belonging in your home. No matter what “belonging” looks like to you, that connection between you and your space is complex and unique, and it can make the difference between calm and chaos. Great design is the emotions it evokes - not just the way it looks.

**★★★★★ — Tammy Redpath, Oct. 2022**

> Kelly was an amazing partner on our lake home design! I loved collaborating with her on space planning, color schemes, and styling! Our place looks incredible. Thank you Kelly!

**★★★★★ — keelerkb, July 2022**

> The last part of our home needing renovation was the primary suite.  Regarding Design presented mood boards, color direction, and furniture selections that were bolder and more creative than we would have selected on our own….all on budget. The final install and styling brought it to life. Thank you Regarding Design!    Kasey B.

**★★★★★ — Korey, July 2022**

> When I purchased my home with an open floor plan, I wanted to create cozy separate spaces and make if feel cohesive. Kelly from Regarding Design asked questions and listened to the details of my daily routine and lifestyle. She created a space plan that allows for living, working, and entertaining. She used color, patterns, and textiles to add softness and sophistication. I love how it all turned out! I felt heard and with Kelly's guidance and recommendations, it definitely feels like home.  ~ Nicole K.

The final touch is artwork with meaning and intent. Truly a sp…

Soaring ceilings are anchored by thoughtfully curated and well placed furniture pieces. A perfect home for two. Elements of floral wallpaper, paper lanter…

The family found a charming traditional 2-story brick house that was newly built. The trick was to make it into a home. How the family would move throughout the home on a daily basis was the guiding principle in creating dedicated spots for crafting, homework, two separate offices, family time and livable outdoor space that is used year round. Out of the chaos of relocation, an oasis em…
