Art + Design. United

Based in the heart of Kansas City, I blend interior design, fine art, and photography into one cohesive vision: to create beauty that feels both personal and powerful.

As a designer, I’m known for one thing above all—I truly listen. I don’t just style a space; I uncover what my clients need—sometimes before they know it themselves—and transform their ideas into deeply personal, functional environments. Thoughtful. Personal. Unforgettable.

As an artist and photographer, I bring that same sensitivity to the canvas and lens. My work reimagines florals and landscapes—not as static scenes, but as living dreamscapes. Every brushstroke and photograph invites viewers into a vivid world where imagination and nature collide.

This is where vision becomes visible.
This is the art of feeling seen—at home and in the world..

Art

I want my art to be remembered for turning florals and landscapes into dreamscapes - where imagination meets the natural world through my lens and brush.

Photography

I don’t just capture nature - I reimagine it.

Recent Project

Great design begins with listening. I create thoughtful, highly personal interiors that feel like home in every sense. Whether it’s solving what’s not working or highlighting what matters most, I turn vision into space—with comfort, beauty, and purpose at the core.

ABOUT ME

You’re ready to buy new furniture—but you don’t want to waste money on the wrong pieces.

Maybe your current setup doesn’t work.

Maybe the sofa feels too big, the chairs don’t flow, or the room still feels unfinished—no matter how much you tweak it.

You’re not just shopping.

You’re looking for furniture that fits your space, your style, and the way you actually live.

That’s where I come in.

I’m Kay Tibbs—an interior designer who helps clients make smart, beautiful furniture decisions.

I don’t just sell furniture—I create personalized plans that ensure what you buy *works*.

✅ Pieces that fit your space

✅ Layouts that feel natural and comfortable

✅ Styles that reflect who you are

When you need a full room plan, I guide you toward furniture that transforms how your space looks—and how it feels.

Because when your home works beautifully, you feel more at home in your life.

Ready to furnish with confidence? I’d love to help.

  • I recently moved to a new home and was stressing out about it. Kay came in and took all that stress away. She made sure she know what I wanted to do with my living room, took detailed notes and measurements and showed me exactly what I needed! I love my new home thanks to Kay!
