Kevin brings his passion for life into his design. He creates original, inspired interiors and shows tremendous ambition and attention to detail in his work. He has an intuitive nature that helps translate a client’s wants and needs into beautiful, functional spaces that serve as the stage to create their memories. What set's Kevin apart from other designers is he truly listens to his client's needs. He stays true to their personal style and brings that into every space while challenging them to step outside of their comfort zone to create individual interiors.
Twitty's interiors pull inspiration from a broad range of places. He loves classic timeless designs that do not overtake their environment, but complimented and accentuated the natural elements already present.
You can see global influences in Twitty's designs, which comes from more than textbook memorization. He is a committed globetrotter and explorer who spend two years overseas gathering inspiration for design is life from 2017-2019. Kevin uses those influences from around the world to bring a unique style into the room.
His favorite design elements are the ones that drastically change your space; proper space planning, special furniture pieces, color, art and accessories.
Twitty received his degree from Stephen F. Austin State University. Following his first semester in he took a job at a small showroom at the Dallas Trade Mart helping with visual displays and continued working there or seven years.
"I believe that design is your personal style. It is the key element that sets the tone to your everyday life. Design wakes up with you in the morning and follows you through the day, all the while setting the stage where your memories are created." - Kevin Twitty

I discovered Kevin around 2012 and he helped me update my house without changing everything. I needed to freshen up the look of my home, but didn’t have the budget for a full re-do! He was so kind and didn’t make me feel like my project was insignificant compared to the bigger projects I know he was working on. Fast forward to 2020, my husband and I are empty nesters and downsizing to a one story that we are building. I immediately thought I HAD to have Kevin help us make the decisions from the very beginning so that our home can be the beautiful space we are hoping for. My style is somewhat ADD (I know what I like, but it is a lot of different things). I reached out to Kevin and asked if he was available and he was! We have already met and he can read my mind as to my crazy style requests and he is excited to help us make our dream space a reality. The house will be done in a little under a year and I feel so confident it will exceed my expectations.

Kevin is a designer who listens to your wants and needs without trying to force his vision on you. It’s refreshing to work with a designer who can allow my personal tastes to shine while elevating it to a whole new level. He has more than a textbook understanding of design, he has a true passion for it. I would recommend Kevin Twitty Interiors for any design job you have in your home.

I've been working with Kevin for about 10 years, off and on. I first met him while working with another designer that was a complete disaster. She would decorate my home reflecting her taste, not mine. I came to Kevin, literally in tears. He listened to what I wanted, came to my home, and instinctively knew how to make my dreams become a reality. He really listens and knows how to create a look that not only reflects your taste, but creates a wonderful atmosphere to live in. Now, I won't buy so much as a pillow without Kevin's input! I feel like he knows me so well, and just knows what I'll like. Also, Kevin keeps in mind your lifestyle, and suggests practical designs...I have four dogs, so he knows no white couches for me!!!
I can't recommend Kevin highly enough. He's a delight to work with, and won't stop until you have the looks you're after.

If your looking for a talented, creative, designer who will take the time to get a feel for you and your style, your must-haves, your way of life, etc.... then infuse his sense of design, (which is why we hire a designer) into a plan, then he's your guy. Kevin designed several rooms in our home using new and existing pieces to create a sense of harmony throughout. Kevin was timely, professional, fun and really easy to work with. Kevin gave us plenty of options to choose from and he made the process very simple from start to end!

We have known Kevin for over two years. We were in need for a major remodeling of our 15 year old house. It was a traditional house with no changes since we built it. We liked our house, but were looking for a change. We didn’t know exactly what we wanted, and we had some appetite for trying something new. Kevin listened to us patiently. He then brought forward great ideas. He really understood what would look good in our house. He struck a really good balance between when and how much to push his ideas, and when to stop. He demonstrated an exceptionally good attitude and was a pleasure to work with. He had great knowledge of various interior design options. He instinctively understood what would look good in a space, and presented the design well. Our house looks different, and we love it. We are building a second house now, and we have asked Kevin to be the designer for this house too. We trust him completely that he will make the interiors of our new house look as exceptional if not better than our current house.

Kevin was a great help to my wife and I in as we tried to furnish our first standalone home north of Dallas after many years of apartment living in San Francisco. He spent the time to get a good understanding of our style, asking many questions to find our points of agreement, points of difference, and opportunities for flights of fancy that might really allow us to put our own stamp on our decor. He provided a wide array of options that we were able to quickly winnow down to a reasonable decision set before making our final choices. In a couple of cases, he was able to quickly react to new information with a creative new choice that really capped off the rooms. Ultimately, we were very happy with his ideas and follow-through, and plan to work with him again to complete the house.

After working with 4 Interior Designers in 4 different moves, I found working with Kevin to be the most fun of all. I found him on Houzz and his projects reflected my taste and the look I was going for. He really listened to what my needs were and the results were everything I hoped for and more. The project consisted of office furnishing, entry way, additional living room furnishing, window coverings and art work for my new town home. Kevin's vision with colors is what first attracted me and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. My husband was also quite satisfied with the results. I still have other projects and final touches that I will have Kevin complete in the near future. I would not hesitate to recommend Kevin to my friends and family.

Kevin took my room from feeling drab to absolutely stunning. His vision and passion for what he does is amazing and so much fun to see unfold before you when it is your room. Not only did we pick out furniture but he did all the art including lamps mirrors pillows and a gorgeous blue cow hide rug to pull it all together. Kevin is wonderful, he is quick to respond and wonderful to work with.

I brought pictures to Kevin to give him an idea of what we wanted in our home and he quickly found the exact pieces we were looking for. He has a great eye for mixing patterns and colors in a playful, yet sophisticated way. Kevin made every aspect of designing our living room a fun process! We look forward to working with him on other projects in our home.

Kevin has helped us redecorate our family room, living room, breakfast room, dining room and foyer. My husband and I hired Kevin to help transform our home into a more transitional decor. Kevin did an amazing job casting his vision for our home. We have just completed several phases of redecorating and I am so happy with the end product! Our cobalt blue, yellow and white dining room has received MANY compliments. I love my metal top round kitchen table and all our new artwork pieces are amazing! Kevin is very personable and a joy to have in our home. He is knowledgeable about design and has a great eye for color and fabrics.

What can I say about Kevin other than he is amazing! I have worked with him on several rooms in my home and I can honestly say that he exceeds my expectations every single time. He listens attentively in an effort to understand his clients needs, wants and desires and delivers a quality product. Kevin has challenged me to step outside my comfort zone of plain traditional and has exposed me to a world of fabulous design concepts that are rich in color, quality and style. I have enjoyed working with him and look forward to our next project.
If you're looking for a designer who is talented, genuine, trustworthy, fun and client focused than look no further.

Kevin is an absolute joy to be around! Not only is he very talented as a designer, he is geniunely a nice person. Kevin has an eye for detail, and can help you see a room's true potential. Where as some designers would want to start all over, Kevin knows how to incorporate your existing furnishings with the new to give your space an updated look for today. He helped my husband and me select furnishings for our new home, and also accessorized our family room. He is understanding of your budget, and welcomes the idea to take projects in stages to accomadate that budget. We are very happy with Kevin, and will continue to have him help make our house a home.

I am extremely happy with Kevin's work in my home. My project included moving to a more "modern/transitional" feel from a very "old world" look. He was able to use several of my existing pieces and recover them in fun fabrics to update the rooms while being conscience of my budget. He always gave me at least 3 choices that would work within the room, so I didn't feel like he was making ALL of the decisions. Space planning is a speciality of his....several times I didn't think furniture would fit in a space, but each time it worked beautifully. My favorite room that he completed was our game room. It is fun and funky with comfortable furniture and a modern flair.....it works for kids but doesn't look like a "kid" room. He is a master at accessorizing.....the icing on the cake of any room! He always kept me updated on the status of my project and worked within my budget. One last thought which sets him apart from other designers.....he always came up with an unexpected twist to each room that made it special. Whether it was the paint color, a funky fabric, or some unique art....an eye catching detail that gave the room a WOW.....!

We will complete our new house construction in early 2013. We initially went to Kevin for some ideas on living room furniture and quickly realized his talents extended far beyond furniture selection. He has since guided us on almost every aspect of finishing our build from selecting interior and exterior finishes to flooring selection and design. Kevin has a great ability to understand your style and tastes in just a few short minutes of conversation. Almost every idea he has come up with has suited our tastes perfectly and has been incorporated into our home. We could not be happier with his services. He is definitely an "up and comer" in the DFW design community.
