Founded in 2003 by Kelly Berg, Story & Space is a boutique interior design firm specializing in color and cruelty-free design.
As an interior designer, color expert and writer Kelly has a unique perspective on color and design. "It's Your Space. Tell Your Story" is her design mantra. With each and every project she encourages her clients to discover and embrace their own personal style. This has lead to a uniquely diversified - and colorful - portfolio. "I often hear from new clients that they want to work with me because of my use of color. It's the biggest compliment."
Kelly earned her BA in Communication from the University of California, San Diego and her BFA in Interior Design from the Design Institute of San Diego. She formally studied applied color psychology through the International Association of Color Consultants (IACC-NA), and continues her independent color research on a daily basis.
With 15 years of design experience, Kelly has become a go-to color and design authority for online and print publications including Better Homes and Gardens and Woman's Day. She is currently putting her design skills to the ultimate test by fixing up her own 1950s home. Kelly enjoys frequent visits to her home town of Napa for family, wine and inspiration.
