We downsized from a brownstone in Brooklyn Heights to a 3 bedroom in Manhattan. After looking at about 60 places we decided to buy on the East side. Loved the area and layout but the kitchen and baths were in need of total renovation .We were not used to dealing with a board, but Kevie and team, particularly Liu, navigated the process seamlessly from start to finish. The team designed what is now a beautiful kitchen, from a drab space that nearly quashed the deal. The bathrooms are now beautifully appointed. They worked closely with us, by presenting designs, fixtures, fabrics, wallpaper, paint, etc, but most importantly listened to our feedback to create a beautiful but homey space. They were a pleasure to deal with during the stress of moving. Thank you Kevie, Liu and team!!!!

So there are ordinary interior designers, and there is Kevie Murphy: a visionary, unique design maven! In a sea of blah neutrals, the KA Murphy team is a refreshing pop of color. They are heads above the competition with their commitment to distinctive interior design, and know how to run a job site with many working parts. As a hardwood flooring company owner, I have had the pleasure of working with KA Murphy Interiors on many projects, and I am always blown away by the breadth of their talents, from small jobs to large jobs, all with completely different styles. They are creative out-of-the-box thinkers, but also practical with their ideas and implementation.
