Krista + Home

What Krista + Home does

Krista + Home is a luxury interior design firm founded in approximately 2007 by Krista Watterworth Alterman and headquartered at 4650 Donald Ross Road, Suite A-112, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. The firm operates as the luxury interior design division of Vesta Home, the largest luxury staging and design company in the United States, and is also known commercially as "KH by Vesta Home." It serves affluent homeowners in South Florida — particularly Palm Beach County and surrounding Southeast Florida — designing high-end new-construction and full-scale renovation projects for clients including professional athletes, business owners, and wealthy individuals.

The firm delivers three integrated services: Build Service (full-scale design oversight for new construction and renovations, including build selections, design and technical drawings, contractor and architect consultations, material boards, showroom visits, coordination, troubleshooting, and routine site visits), Furniture Service (custom furniture procurement, 3D renderings, sample collection, damage inspection, and white-glove installation), and Finishing Service (accessory and artwork curation as an add-on). The technology stack is conventional for an interior design practice: 3D rendering and visualization tools, design software for technical drawings, and interior design set (ID set) preparation. No proprietary AI/ML, custom software product, or API is offered — the firm explicitly has no app, no public API, and no integrations disclosed.

Krista + Home operates a professional services revenue model with quote-based pricing tied to square footage, project scope, and a multi-year contract cadence; pricing is not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market is relationship-driven direct sales to affluent homeowners, leveraging Krista Watterworth Alterman's celebrity founder status (a former HGTV television designer), editorial press coverage (Architectural Digest, House Beautiful, The New York Times, Modern Luxury, and 20+ other publications), 185,000+ Instagram followers, and a 67+ page design blog. The firm rejects retail distribution and instead funnels prospects through a complimentary consultation. The company is privately held (legal entity KRISTA WATTERWORTH, LLC, Florida), with no external institutional funding, and has a team of 15+ employees including designers, a Director of Design, Director of Purchasing & Operations, Project Manager, Marketing Manager, Finance Accounts Manager, and administrative staff.

Broad incumbents

• Vesta Home: Parent company of Krista + Home and the largest luxury staging and design company in the United States. Operates a national luxury staging and design platform with broader geographic reach and a deeper vendor network than Krista + Home, of which Krista + Home is the boutique interior design division.
• RH (Restoration Hardware): Public luxury home furnishings and design company offering sourcebooks, galleries, and integrated interior design services across the U.S. Overlaps with Krista + Home in serving affluent homeowners with curated, full-home design but operates at much larger scale and across a broader product portfolio.

Direct peers

• Laura U Design Collective: Houston-based luxury residential interior design firm offering full-scale design for new construction and renovation projects. Directly comparable to Krista + Home in business model, client profile (affluent homeowners), and integrated build-to-finish service delivery.
• Decorating Den Interiors: Largest interior design franchise in North America with hundreds of design studio owners serving residential clients. Comparable to Krista + Home as a residential interior design provider, but operates through a distributed franchise model rather than a single celebrity-led boutique.
• Roche Bobois: Global luxury furniture and interior design retailer offering custom residential design services through showrooms worldwide. Comparable to Krista + Home in targeting affluent homeowners seeking bespoke, full-home interiors, though anchored in furniture product rather than design-led project management.
• Rottet Studio: Award-winning luxury interior architecture and design firm serving high-end residential, hospitality, and commercial clients. Comparable to Krista + Home in the luxury tier of integrated residential design, with similar emphasis on full-scale, high-touch engagements.

Emerging players

• Holly Hunt: Luxury home furnishings brand with showrooms across major U.S. design markets and a curated designer trade program. Comparable to Krista + Home in the luxury residential ecosystem and access to exclusive furnishings, but primarily a manufacturer/retailer rather than a turnkey design firm.
• Arteriors: Luxury lighting, furniture, and home accessories brand serving the interior design trade. Comparable to Krista + Home as a participant in the luxury residential design supply chain, with showrooms and to-the-trade access points aligned with high-end residential projects.
