Kelley Harris | Principal Designer

 

 

A native of Atlanta, Georgia, Kelley graduated from the University of Georgia with a BFA in Fine Art and Interior Design through the renowned Lamar Dodd School of Art. UGA's interior design program is a CIDA (Council for Interior Design Accreditation) Accredited program (formerly FIDER) and is a 4-year program.

 

Kelley’s passion for design is apparent through his personal approach to the process. Client involvement is critical to the success of each project and results in a more unique finished product. With each experience a relationship is formed and many relationships become friendships in the end. With his experience in hospitality design, Kelley brings to the table a fresh and creative approach to interior design. The finished product is a custom design that is unique to each client.

​

 

Kelley launched Harris Interiors (HINT) in 2014 with a goal to provide the most personalized design approach for his private club clients. Kelley and his team take the time in the beginning of each project to understand the personality, culture and soul of each club. The process evolves from that point with an informed identity for design character, millwork details, FF&A selections and a customized collection of artwork and accessories. The result is a unique destination tailored to members and their guests.

Since its inception in 2014, Harris Interiors has worked with over forty private clubs, with locations ranging from the East Coast and mid-West. The firm’s talent was recently recognized with two of the most prestigious awards in the design industry:
