Kristi was the interior designer for the total remodel of a very high end garden apartment in Pacific Heights ( we were the GC) and she was a great collaborator. She understood the mechanics of the project from the builder's point of view, as well as having a very elegant esthetic that enthralled the Homeowners. Her designs were very rewarding to accomplish for us and thrilling for the Homeowners to see developing and to see finished. She was a true partner with us, with the Homeowners, and with the Architect. The whole project went smoothly and efficiently and she was a big reason, because she was always prepared and able to adapt to changing conditions easily, while keeping the design concepts alive.

We recently completed an extensive, multi-year remodeling and decorating project with Kriste Michelini Interiors and couldn’t be happier with both the results and the overall experience.

Kriste and her team were collaborative, communicative, responsive and extremely organized. She was always clear and transparent about cost, availability, and timeline for every item we were interested in, which helped us plan and budget throughout the process.

Kriste listened to our ideas and priorities and developed them into something well beyond our dreams. Our home is not only gorgeous but also reflects our own personal style in the most elevated way.

Kriste’s energy, attentiveness and impeccable taste made her a dream to work with. It has been such a positive and fun experience to work with her that I'm actually looking for other design projects to involve her in!

How I have loved Kriste Michelini and her team for a long time, whether I drop into their office or they visit our home, they have provided current and appreciated designs.

They have helped us shape our home into a comfortable "less is better” family nest.

Kriste has listened to what we think we want and helped us find the right pieces and design to make it happen. She has also been respectful of pieces we wish to keep.

Each room has had her touch, but the kitchen and family room have been the best of all. Simple, comfortable, and friendly would be our description.

I have appreciated that Kriste always wants to meet with us both so we are on board together. It works every time!

We want her back! There is always more to do to refresh our home! Don and Jean Schroeder

As an art gallery owner, I have worked with over 200 interior designers in the Bay Area. Kriste Michelini and her team are amazing at what they do! They strike a great balance between listening to clients and also exposing them to new ideas. They are highly professional and customer service oriented. They have an amazing aesthetic and their projects are often in magazines. No detail is left behind. You are in great hands with the Kriste Michelini team!

Simply stated; Kriste Michelini and her team are the best! We have been fortunate enough to collaborate with Kriste on many remodeling projects in the Danville / Alamo area over the years. As a building contractor professional, I am constantly impressed with attention to detail Kriste and her staff put into their designs. Kriste Michelini Interiors is a "must" interview if choosing to work with an interior designer.

I just have to take a moment to express how truly wonderful Kriste Michelini and her team at KMI are. From the moment I hired them as my interior designers, they have exceeded all of my expectations.Their creativity, attention to detail, and professionalism are unmatched. Every space they have designed for me has been absolutely stunning and exactly what I envisioned. I cannot recommend KMI enough - they are truly the best in the business. Thank you Kriste and team for making my home so beautiful.

We have worked with Kriste and her team on a multi year whole house remodel and have been very happy with the results. She introduced us to great tradespeople who could help turn our house into a beautiful home and helped pick the finishes and furnishings for both the house and the yard.

We are an active family with two young kids, a dog and two cats, so we were worried about buying expensive furniture only for it to be ruined as soon as we moved in! Kriste listened to our concerns and worked with us to find things that not only looked great, but were very practical and will last a long time in our home.

We are very happy with the end result and will continue to work alongside Kriste in the future!
