“Kaila from the workshop design studio is a great interior designer. She is smart, professional and a good listener. She really works closely with her clients to develop a plan and come up with an end result that they are happy with. She is great at space design and works within a budget in whatever way that works for the client - she can go pick things out for the home, go with the client to shop or let the client shop on their own based on the plans they put together. This makes her very easy to work with. Lastly, she is very invested in the project the entire time you are creating a design with her. I felt she was just as excited as I was with the end result. I highly recommend Kaila and would work with her over and over to re-design spaces in my home.”

“Kaila and her office have great talent and professionalism. I have been so grateful for her help. Kaila has done most of the decorating in our house and kept me on track through the whole project. The outcomes of each room have our personality, are fresh and up to date, and look pulled together - yet not over decorated. In addition to Kaila’s talented eye for color and style, she is very businesslike. She is incredibly organized and to the point. She doesn’t waste any time and always helped me stay focused. I have recommended Kaila to many friends.”

“I really enjoyed working with Kaila at theworKshop design studio. She listened to what I wanted and needed and was responsive. She opened my eyes to colors, designs, etc. that I never would have picked myself and made my home look much more interesting. I will continue to use her for future projects.”

“Kaila was wonderful to work with on the interior design project within our home. From Day 1 she was able to execute on the overall vision I had in my head! She made our place sophisticated in a way that works for our lives with two kids and a dog. We redid our floors, our doors, window treatments, our two fireplaces and some furniture. It has made a tremendous difference in our home! I highly recommend Kaila for her responsiveness, her vision and execution.”

“The worKshop design studio was amazing to work with! Our designer - Kaila Kirkpatrick - was wonderful and her overarching vision, plan, and implementation exceeded our expectations. We transformed several rooms in our home and Kaila’s attention to detail across the board was exceptional. We highly recommend working with Kaila and the worKshop design studio.”

“After recently moving to Chicago from Seattle I worked with Kaila at theworKshop design studio to turn my somewhat generic loft-style apartment in the south loop into a comfortable and unique home that completely expresses my personality and aesthetic. Kaila truly listens; she has a remarkable ability to hone in on what will work for my family and then suggest ideas and resources to make it happen. She is a patient and supportive guide through the design process. She is a dynamic professional who can take a client’s half-expressed idea and turn it into an exciting and one-of-a-kind result. I recommend theworKshop design studio wholeheartedly.”

“I have had the pleasure of working with Kaila for 4+ years. I am a colleague of Kaila’s and I have firsthand experience seeing her put together her client’s projects both with ease and care. Kaila is energetic and enthusiastic about her client’s projects and will always give her client’s an amazing space that is in budget, creative and well within the client’s realm of style. I recommend Kaila to help you with your design needs.”

“Kaila is a hands-on interior designer with incredible design sensibilities and problem-solving skills. I have worked on a variety of projects with her over the years, and most recently a remodeling project of a painfully small bathroom in a vintage building with tons of challenges. Kaila’s streamlined process and fantastic space saving ideas have saved us time, money, and have ultimately transformed a space that nearly caused us to sell our place, into one we are happy to start our days in each day. She really listens and knows how to distill your ideas into the design you’ve always wanted but couldn’t pull together yourself. She and her recommended vendors/contractors provided excellent service & communication along the way, and we are looking forward to using them all again in the future.”

“The WorKshop design studio is wonderful! Kaila helped us choose paint colors and remodel a powder room and kitchen. She had also helped us design and choose new furniture for our family room. Highly recommend!”
