Simply the best! Great people, great artists! Felt like Christmas Day when they did their reveal on the day of delivery. Also will hook you up with top notch experts in TV, sound, window treatments, etc. Highly recommend.

Comment from McKinlay Rose Interiors:

Thank you! It’s been a pleasure having your design project in Sarasota.

HU-3385463322

Melanie and Kristen and their entire team are exceptional at what they do! From the initial meeting and throughout the project, they sought to know our interests, preferences, and aspirations for the space that gave us absolute confidence that we were on the same team. I had not worked with an interior designer on such a large project before so was unsure of the process. They were extremely responsive, communicative and accommodating. I thought I knew what I wanted but they opened my eyes up to many new ideas and concepts and kept me focused so that everything would be cohesive throughout. The end result was more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. The level of detail and concierge style of coordination was more than I could have ever hoped for. I would highly recommend McKinlay Rose to anyone who is looking for an all star interior design team in Tampa! Thank you for our beautiful and serene space!!

Let me tell you, McKinlay Rose Interiors isn't your average design team. These folks, Kristen and Melanie, have been rocking the design world for over 25 years, and it shows! They take your space and turn it into a place you'll never want to ditch. Seriously, my friends have used McKinlay Rose, and let me tell you, their homes are STUNNING. Functional, luxurious, and bursting with personality – that's the McKinlay Rose magic. Plus, the whole process is apparently a breeze. They use some fancy software called IVY to keep you in the loop on everything, and the vibe at the firm is super friendly and fun. If you're looking to transform your space into a showstopper, McKinlay Rose Interiors is the way to go. They'll have you lounging in luxury in no time!

McKinley Rose is by far, the ultimate in interior design. Just give them a key to your place, and let the magic begin. Kristen and Melanie are experts in design, furniture placement, and color selection. Their team is professional and skilled. I rarely write reviews, but they managed to decorate our home seamlessly, while I was 1200 miles away. I highly recommend without any hesitation.

We moved from Cincinnati to Tampa and bought a new home. We needed someone to furnish our entire house. We inquired online and minutes after Melanie called me. We made an appointment for the next day. We had looked at their portfolio and loved everything they had done. Bright, light, casual but elegant. They did not disappoint. We pretty much left all decisions up to them and it was like they read our minds. Everything was what we wanted but could never have done this on our own. They saved us from making big, expensive mistakes. Without hesitation I would recommend them. They are so very talented.

Wonderful service. Creative design. Beautiful end result that will last a lifetime. So excited for our dining room to enjoy with family and friends. A total one of a kind design by McKinlay Rose. The best thing about this firm - big budget or small budget project, the service is always the same! Top notch.

St. Petersburg FL and Atlanta GA In April 2019 We hired McKinlay Rose Interiors to decorate our St. Petersburg Beach Condo. The condo is small, but with their ideas of paint colors, lighting and the proper furniture, the space opened up. The entire experience with their team, from scheduling to install was exceptional. Therefore, when we bought a second home in Atlanta, we knew it was worth the extra expense of flying (Kristen, Melanie and Phillip) to Atlanta to design the interior. of our new home. Again, we were pleased with the entire job from start to finish. I highly recommend the McKinlay Rose Interiors team, they are truly amazing.

I started working with Melanie a few years ago when I first moved to the area and needed to furnish my living room. She came over to look at my other furnishings to determine what style I liked and what pieces would complement my other decor. I have now used her to pick things for almost every room in my house. Even though I have no doubt anything she picks out would make any room look beautiful, she is also great about helping me pick pieces that speak to me and working within my budget.

We hired Melanie and Kristen of McKinley Rose Interiors during the planning stages of our future home. Shortly after this meeting, we were provided with story boards and floor plans detailing every room in our home. They worked with us and our builder throughout the entire building process. They ordered and stored all of our lightning. They provided the builder with complete lists of items such as tile and hardware. Their vision and support through the process helped to make everything easy and exciting. Their organization and professionalism helped to keep the building process on schedule. Once our home was finished, they moved everything in and put the final touches on every room. When we entered our home, we were thrilled at what we saw. They are truly special interior designers who turned our house into the perfect home!

Starting with just architecture plans, Melanie and Kristen created a vision and appropriate design for our new family living spaces. The design process was well defined with design boards for all the rooms and pieces. The installation process was an amazing transformation and we are excited to be enjoying our gorgeous yet functional new space.

As a bachelor I always thought I had a good taste for design but when I moved here to Tampa I had a lot of trouble coming up with something I liked. I hired the McKinlay Rose team and I couldn't be happier. When they showed me their ideas I loved it all with the exception of the desk. I trusted them and I LOVE THE DESK!!!! They are now completing my living room and soon my bedroom.

I hired Kristen to decorate my entire home. She was very professional and did an excellent job. She put every room on a board and I decided what I liked and didn't like. Then, I picked when to order for each room. She did a fantastic job. I absolutely love my home. There were several items that I wanted for my lifestyle and she gave me all the results that I asked for and exceeded my expectations. I live in the Tampa Bay area. I would highly recommend her. She is very detailed oriented and very organized. I was so pleased with the job that she did and how much she cares about pleasing the customer. If you are in need of a designer, I know you will not be disappointed with her work. She is so talented and double checks every thing she does to make sure it is all perfect.
