Renae Keller, ASID, NCIDQ
FOUNDER + PRINCIPAL DESIGNER
Best known for her love of the new build process and focusing in on select details in her interiors, Renae creates spaces that are brimming with personality that speak to her clients for years to come. A high value and first priority for Renae is to create rooms that are inviting, beautifully finished, and comfortable, as they were intended to be. Since 1996, Renae has been featured in a number of design publications in the Twin Cities and beyond and as an industry tastemaker at national interior design markets. She has been on numerous podcasts and guest panels. Renae enjoys spending time with her four children, and you will find her traveling and searching for one-of-a-kind objects to incorporate into her next project or antiquing on the cobblestone streets of Charleston, SC, or along the seacoast from New Hampshire to Maine.
Our Values
BEAUTY
A beautiful interior, a beautiful experience, a beautiful life. We believe in surrounding yourself and immersing yourself in beauty. A beautifully designed interior informs your daily routines and allows you to be the best version of yourself.
CURATION
There is perfection in imperfection. You might not know why, but you know when it feels right. Creating well-appointed interiors is an artful process that unfolds over time. We love the hunt and the magic that happens when your stories are told through sacred spaces.

KIND WORDS

RKID could see and embrace our vision, enhancing form and function while paying homage to the classic features of our historic home. RKID created thoughtful and timeless updates while focusing on the specific needs of our young family, resulting in a true sense of home for us…”
