Design Happens

In honor of St. Patrick’s day, we’re profiling Irish designer, Sinead Kelly.

In addition to doing interior design, Kelly consults on color, space planning, lighting plans and furniture sourcing. She’s published articles in the Sunday Independent, her work has been featured in Irish Homes magazine and she has appeared as a guest on several of Ireland’s top radio shows.

She was invited to design the 2007, 2008 and 2009 Ideal Homes Exhibition Showhouses. As Dulux Ireland‘s 2010 Color Consultant, she stays busy coaching others, but she still has time to take on her own projects, ranging from small flats to big-time restaurants. Her “elegant modern” style can be seen in homes and businesses all over Ireland and the UK. Read on to see some of her work.
