The Studio
Katie Severns Design is a boutique residential interior design studio located in the San Francisco Bay Area. We specialize in creating elevated, design-forward and beautifully functional spaces for families at all stages.
Our aesthetic is approachable, inviting and thoughtfully layered with a focus on natural materials, heritage textiles and artisan decor. Entering a space we've designed should always make you want to get comfy, settle in and stay a while!
Taking a tailored approach to each project, we mix vintage with new, incorporate custom details and source one-of-a-kind found pieces for a collected, lived-in feel. Our homes reflect each of our clients' unique lifestyles, refining the aesthetics and functionality to make every day beautiful.
Katie Severns, Principal Designer + Owner
Drawing on her experience leading buying + merchandising for iconic apparel and home brands, Katie takes a highly personalized and curated approach to designing spaces that surprise and delight her clients. With an efficient, detailed process, well-trained eye and innate talent for finding the perfect finishing touches, she delivers a seamless experience full of collaboration and inspiration from start to finish - with budget and timing top of mind.
​
A Northern California native and Mom of two, Katie finds inspiration in the natural beauty of the region and her own family's busy lifestyle. In her downtime she can often be found enjoying day trips around the Bay, entertaining at home (her cooking skills are...a work in progress but she makes a great cheese plate!) and creating moments of beauty and connection for those she loves.

Kind Words
"Katie's approachable, relaxed demeanor made the entire process not just less daunting, but enjoyable. Through interest boards, renderings, visits to our home, and clear, consistent communication she was able to curate living areas that reflect our style and perfectly suit our family."
