While timeless, elegant, and tailored may be adjectives to describe Kelly Caron’s style, it is easy to see that fresh, livable, and inviting are equally descriptive of her interiors. “Getting to know my clients and learning about their lifestyle, passions, personalities, and family is ultimately the key to a great project.
This is imperative when designing a home that works beautifully for the client and how they live,” says Kelly Caron, founder of Kelly Caron Designs. Celebrating their tenth anniversary with locations in Bluffton, South Carolina, and North Palm Beach, Florida, her team thrives on creating homes that are both beautiful and inviting. Although Caron’s team works primarily on coastal residences, their portfolio covers every design aesthetic, including hospitality projects, and extends across the US.
Whether the client prefers a neutral palette or leans to the eclectic, Caron is an expert at mixing contemporary furnishings, antiques, and family heirlooms for a space that exudes a comfortable elegance.
“Our process starts with a meeting to understand the clients’ goals, needs, and expectations,” says Caron. “We challenge every aspect of the design to ensure that it functions for everyday living, flows well for entertaining, and includes the finishing details that make for a unique project. Each phase of the design is planned from ordering to installation. We have our own receiving, inspections, and delivery team called The Design Vault. The value-added benefit of this service gives the process an efficient and seamless touch.”
Caron is a master at incorporating items treasured by the client because it helps convey the story of the home. “Our goal is for the home to reflect the clients’ taste in a fresh, modern way while also incorporating cherished heirlooms and personal collections,” says Caron. “When client’s say, ‘I can’t believe I live here,’ that makes my heart sing.
