We never met in person, but they managed to furnish an entire home for us during covid. We bought the home for my mom and for a place to stay when we visit Portland. Kami and Stephanie listened to our vision, provided thoughtful and creative options for furnishings, and, based on the photos, the space is beautiful! We still haven't been able to see it in-person, but we hope to visit this summer. Most importantly, my mom loves the home and the cozy, comfortable vibe Kami & Stephanie created. Thank you both for making this happen during such a challenging year. We look forward to future collaborations ;) **Comment from Kami Gray Interiors:** > Thank you so much Carey! It was such a pleasure working with you. Thank you for trusting us, especially since we never actually met! I know you've seen all the photos, but here's a quick refresher. So excited for you to see it in person and get to enjoy it! We truly appreciate the wonderful review! -Kami and Stephanie **★★★★★ — Leigh Johnson, May 2020** > Hands down my favorite designer ever (and I've worked with many)! Kami delivered beyond my expectations. She seemed to truly ENJOY figuring out my vision and preferences, and edited and updated tirelessly until we had a result that truly delighted me. Kami's experience working with and for staging and furniture retailers was invaluable, giving her great skill at balancing color, shape, texture, and finishing details that make the spaces inviting and warm but not overly "done." Our end product exceeded my expectations-- a delicious blend of color and texture with open space and tranquility. Thank you Kami! **Comment from Kami Gray Interiors:** > Leigh! Wow! > > What a lovely review! I had so much fun working with you! This thrills me to hear and I am doubly excited that we're going to work on yet another project together! Really appreciate you taking the time to write me a review! Professional photos to come, but here's a little sneak peak of the lounge! > > Thanks so much! > > -Kami **★★★★★ — Val Harris, April 2020** > I worked with Kami to refashion the kitchen and powder room of my 19th century brick Queen Anne. I had spoken with a few designers before I found her who either wouldn't even touch my project (even though I had a $90,000 budget for a relatively small space!) because it was "too small," or who I couldn't trust to help me stay on that strict budget. But Kami was totally respectful of the budget and offered FANTASTIC choices to achieve a high-end look. She was invaluable in sharing where she thought the money was best spent, like on quality faucets and countertops, but save on stylish but less expensive drawer pulls, for instance. And she dug around for less-known artists and designers to add that "designer touch" in things like shelf brackets and some seriously excellent wall paper for the powder room. I'd love to work with her again! > http://kamigrayinteriors.com/victorian-kitchen-and-powder-in-richmond/ **★★★★★ — Jean Griest, April 2020** > Can you give more than 5 stars? Kami is amazing! Her designs are outstanding. She's professional, communicative, resourceful, responsive, thorough, super creative; and has a great sense of humor! She not only designed our kitchen, but our basement as well. We know she's in high demand, yet Kami always found the time to answer our gazillion questions quickly. Hands down, she's THE best! Thanks, Kami, for an experience that has exceeded our expectations! **Comment from Kami Gray Interiors:** > Thank you so much Jean! I'd like to give you and Don FIVE STARS for being such great clients! I cannot wait until this quarantine is over so we can shoot your kitchen! **★★★★ — Kristine Rotan-Artman, Oct. 2017** > Kami is an energetic and experienced designer that seemed to immediately understand our style upon walking into our home. Her experience and suggestions allowed me the confidence to make choices that I knew I would love. She was responsive to texts and emails as questions would arise about color, contractors and time frames. Kami also has contacts with craftsman in: tiling, painting, masonry and other fields that came in handy when I struggled securing contractors for our work. This was honestly the only frustrating part about our project. I did not have a general contractor. The contacts would often only respond to Kami- yet Kami was understandably too busy to organize the work with the contractors and serve as the go-between. It just wasn't her job. She set clear boundaries regarding this fact. As long as you go in knowing this, or with a general contractor that will take care of it all for you! you will no doubt appreciate Kami's decisive, direct and talented professionalism. **Comment from Kami Gray Interiors:** > Thanks so much Kris! I really appreciate your thoughtful review. And I love how your home turned out! XO **★★★★★ — Angela Murphy, Aug. 2017** > We bought a 1970s home that needed a complete remodel. We really struggled with finding a vision for our kitchen and didn't want to make mistakes while being distracted working on the rest of the house. I found Kami on Houzz and felt immediately at ease with her upon our first meeting. We had a few things on our wish list and a tight budget and we were eager to let her take control so that we could focus on the rest of the house. We were given a design plan, a timeline and input. We appreciated that she was budget conscious and would go the extra mile to find the right pricing on items that would allow us to get that designer look without breaking the bank. Kami is a great communicator and would email pictures of options on many items to get our feedback on her choices. We loved that. We were also lucky to have been able to work with Ash St. Builders (Kami's husband) during a very busy time in the Portland market. We are so happy with our finished product and our friends and neighbors are astonished at the transformation of our home. We can't thank Kami and Bryant enough. **Comment from Kami Gray Interiors:** > Thank you Angela! Reading this makes me so happy! I will definitely share with Bryant. You are Dave were superstar clients so it was a real win for us too. :-) **★★★★★ — Dahlia Shtayyeh, July 2017** > My husband and I worked with Kami on our kitchen remodel this past year. Kami is professional, experienced and will think of every detail you won't! We really enjoyed working on the project, and are thrilled with our perfect-for-entertaining kitchen! **Comment from Kami Gray Interiors:** > Thank you so much Dahlia! So happy that you it was a positive experience for you and your husband. Kitchen remodels are not easy to live through, but thrilled your happy with the results. XO **★★★★★ — Nick Alexander, July 2017** > My entire experience working with Kami was exceptional. She gave me expert advice, helped me save a lot of money by using her designer license and most importantly we had fun while constructing a gorgeous remodel. > > I started a minor project in my house and got stuck; paint colors weren't right, carpet wasn't matching the paint colors, finding the right blinds seemed impossible. I personally enjoy design and didn't want to give control to anyone else bc I wanted to have my input. Exasperated with the whole process...i called Kami. > > Kami is very client centric. She asks a lot of questions to gain an understanding of what's most important to you vs designing what she would like. She listened to all of my wants and needs including budget, timeframe, where I wanted help and where I didn't. > > After our first consultation and walk through of the house she sent me drawings and ideas and I did the same. We built out a file system of which we could share. She met me to pick out tile, carpet etc and had great recommendations for vendors and places to buy my furnishings. > > Kami's response time was excellent I never felt like I was waiting on a response and she would reply with honest input on some items I had selected for her to review. > > The end result is a remodel that I'm very proud of. I was able to have my style and input but at the same time receive Kami's expertise for an end product that is much better than I could've done myself!! **Comment from Kami Gray Interiors:** > Thank SO much Nick! So fun working with you and your house looks AMAZING! XO **★★★★★ — Sarah Papp, Nov. 2016** > Love Kami's eye for design! I contacted Kami to help with several small updates around the house (choosing a backsplash we never completed, changing hardware, light fixtures, etc) and we couldn't have been happier with the results. The choices ended up being more cost effective than we expected and the the final look is gorgeous. We'll continue to use Kami as we make updates to the house, and would recommend her in a heartbeat. **★★★★★ — mhjanke, Oct. 2016** > WOW - that's all I can say. After considering multiple other proposals from high-end interior designers in Portland, Kami Gray and her team outshines them all. She put together a plan for our kitchen remodel that was on budget, met our VERY tight timeline (2 weeks!?) and created the perfect look that we were hoping for. We couldn't be happier. Kami has an attention to detail and an eye for design that really stand out and make her a perfect partner for any remodel or redesign project. She is very responsive to questions and concerns - my husband is very detail oriented, and was thrilled with how Kami addressed his every concern, down to a slightly loose drawer pull ;) She also provided a budget update whenever we needed it, so we knew exactly where we were with the project cost. Based on our great experience, we plan on working with Kami for several other projects - teen bedroom refresh, bonus room, etc., etc. We highly recommend Kami Gray Interior Design for your next design project. **★★★★★ — Sabrina Lindquist, Oct. 2016** > My favorite pastime is watching HGTV, perusing home decorating magazines and scouring online websites dreaming of a day that I can tackle a large home project. Well that day came and it was much harder than I originally thought. We purchased a 25 year-old home and needed to outfit a living room and dining room combo. I visited every furniture store in the area and just couldn’t see the vision for the room. I wanted to make sure that our room was unique but timeless at the same time. > In walks Kami Gray…I saw her website and really liked her portfolio. Sent her and email and she responded to my inquiry quickly. We set up a time to meet and look at my space and the rest is history. Her pricing is very reasonable and probably saved me money in the long run by not purchasing the wrong items. We met a couple time in person to shop but we mostly communicated by email and phone. Kami is very responsive and so easy to talk to. > > She created a room that exceeded my expectations. She just has a knack for putting things together. Every time I walk in the room I feel like I’m in one of those home magazine. Pinch me, I think I’ve gone to home decor heaven. Thanks Kami!! **★★★★★ — schmitt17, Oct. 2016** > WE have been working with Kami for a major remodel that we just completed (new kitchen, den, front portico) over the past 5 months. Kami was invaluable in helping us sort thru all of the details on finishes/paint/tile etc.... She is extremely available, respectful and timely...not to mention easy going style and funny. She is also helping us now with the interior design part - furniture etc... I can't imagine doing this/making all of these decisions by myself. ## Selected projects - [Main Floor Makeover in NE Portland](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/main-floor-makeover-in-ne-portland-pj-vj~5536821) - Location: Portland, OR - Photos: 23 - [1920s Sellwood Home: Kitchen and Great Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/1920s-sellwood-home-kitchen-and-great-room-pj-vj~1796207) - Location: Portland, OR - Photos: 11 - Description: Walls were knocked out for this one. The 1920s home had tons of space, but it was broken up into small, awkwardly-shaped rooms. Not anymore. It’s open, airy, spacious and the perfect gathering place for a young family of five. These wonderful clients wanted their home to be warm and inviting so we used earth tones and balanced those with hints of Mediterranean blue. In the kitchen, we got bold and painted the cabinets blue and offset that coolness with butcherblock countertops and exposed reclai… - [Reed Midcentury Modern Makeover](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/reed-midcentury-modern-makeover-pj-vj~5817921) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 18 - [Alameda Neighborhood Kitchen Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/alameda-neighborhood-kitchen-remodel-pj-vj~2571412) - Location: Portland, OR - Photos: 18 - Description: This Portland, Oregon Dutch Colonial home in the Alameda Neighborhood was built in 1921. The old kitchen wasn’t terribly dated, but it was dark and had a less than ideal layout. With tall ceilings, we went with double uppers to accentuate the height and add cabinet space. We moved the peninsula from one side of the kitchen to the other because it was blocking the opening to the dining room and to the double doors leading to the patio. We widened the doorway to the dining room to create a better… - [Colorful, Eclectic, and Kid-Centric in Hawthorne](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/colorful-eclectic-and-kid-centric-in-hawthorne-pj-vj~2584779) - Location: Portland, OR - Photos: 21 - [Main Floor Makeover in Eastmoreland](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/main-floor-makeover-in-eastmoreland-pj-vj~2613653) - Location: Portland, OR - Photos: 30 - [70s Kitchen Doubles in Size in NE Portland](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/70s-kitchen-doubles-in-size-in-ne-portland-pj-vj~2571105) - Location: Portland, OR - Photos: 18 - Description: This 1978 Portland, Oregon home in the Wilkes Neighborhood was in dire need of an overhaul. To double the kitchen’s size, we eliminated the breakfast nook including the old sliding glass door, which we replaced with a five foot window. We added a peninsula to create bar seating and knocked out the wall between the kitchen and dining room. We also replaced the old slider in the dining room with new French doors that open up to the patio. This wonderful client knew that she wanted blue “lantern” t… - [Kitchen Remodel Featured in Country Living Magazine](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-remodel-featured-in-country-living-magazine-pj-vj~1645047) - Location: Portland, OR - Photos: 15 - Description: I designed this affordable kitchen remodel using salvaged or reclaimed materials. The only new materials are the lighting, the kitchen faucet, and the angle iron that supports the shelves and the countertops. All the other materials are salvaged or, as in the case of the wood countertops, floors, and ceiling; created with reclaimed materials. The ceiling is made of old wooden bleachers from a local college. The Crane farm sink was found at a local antique store. The pantry, cabinet doors, and dr… - [Gold and Glam Kitchen Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/gold-and-glam-kitchen-remodel-pj-vj~2149735) - Location: Portland, OR - Photos: 15 - Description: It’s a designer’s dream when a client doesn’t hold back and really goes for it, as was the case with this white and gray kitchen with gold accents. These clients own a chain of clothing boutiques in Portland, Oregon and also have a swanky place in Los Angeles. The end result of this remodel feels very Hollywood to me, in all the best ways.

My inner transformation junkie couldn’t wait to start the demo. My clients went on vacation while the renovation work was being done. It was a rough two weeks, but thanks to a great team of subcontractors and my wonderful home builder husband to coordinate the crew, we made it happen with literally a couple of hours to spare.

I went through all of their existing items and we made a plan for what to keep, which was mostly artwork and the dining room table and chairs. Everything other detail was carefully sourced, purchased, and sent to a receiving company to store until their house was ready. We then installed the furnishings for each room over two days before the family of four (and soon to be five) moved in and spent their first night in their… - [NE Portland Living Room Makeover](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ne-portland-living-room-makeover-pj-vj~1993429) - Location: Portland, OR - Photos: 6 - Description: We were on a tight budget for this living room overhaul so we had to use mostly existing accessories. For this client and her family of five, the living room is also the family room so we had to make it comfortable and relaxed for tv-watching and family game night. That said, we also wanted it somewhat refined because it’s the first room you see when you walk into their home.

For this client, entertaining is all about having people over for good food and wine in a lively, informal space. I helped her repurpose the space so the former living room could have room for a dining area as well as a proper entry. We also converted the kitchen nook to a sitting area, essentially a micro living room. Since she already has a kitchen island with three bar stools, she didn't need a nook table in addition to the… - [Mid-Century Modern Remodel on Mount Tabor](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mid-century-modern-remodel-on-mount-tabor-pj-vj~2088469) - Location: Portland, OR - Photos: 19 - Description: This is the home I share with my husband and two French Bulldogs, George and Ben. The homes and spaces I create for my clients vary anywhere from wildly different to having only some similarities to my own home. My home is a reflection and representation of me and my family and the home I will create for you is unique to who you are; your interests, personality, values, lifestyle, family needs, and budget. I have a special fondness for homes built in the 60s, especially mid-century modern homes.… - [Rejuvenation Catalog: Set Design & Prop Styling](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/rejuvenation-catalog-set-design-and-prop-styling-pj-vj~1645098) - Location: Portland, OR - Photos: 13 - [Living and Dining in Happy Valley](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/living-and-dining-in-happy-valley-pj-vj~2079328) - Location: Happy Valley, OR - Photos: 12 - Description: This wonderful client and I sat down for an inspiration meeting to discuss the project and I saw a little (or a lot of) blue in almost every image. Your collection of inspiration images says so much about what makes you happy. And her family does live in Happy Valley after all. And more happiness is her massive banana leaf chandelier.
