5 Minutes With… Kati Curtis
The classically inclined designer dishes on mixing and mingling, the importance of scale and the power of patterns.
Known for her candy-colored interiors and rich material combinations, interior designer Kati Curtis has fashioned her body of work around crafting visual stories inspired by the vibrant personalities that call them home. It’s Kati’s artistic approach and eclectic portfolio of projects that’s kept her in constant rotation on the shelter magazine circuit.
