KATE LESTER INTERIORS

MANHATTAN BEACH, CALIF.

Originally founded in 2010, Kate Lester Interiors is a talented and meticulous team of designers dedicated to the highest level of detail. Under the direction of Kate Lester, CEO + Creative Director of Kate Lester Interiors & Kate Lester HOME, they bring her unique design perspective to life.

Lester’s signature style masterfully blends curated vintage finds and modern flourishes with classic lines. Every space she creates reflects a playful spirit, incorporating a “one weird thing” to ensure a truly personal touch. Thriving at the intersection of luxury, humor, and a down-to-earth approach. She believes that beautifully crafted and thoughtfully curated homes should ultimately be a reflection of the people who live in them.

Kate’s academic foundation is as impressive as her design aesthetic. A graduate of the prestigious USC Marshall School of Business, she further honed her creative vision at Los Angeles’ esteemed Otis College of Design and Architecture.

Beyond the design world, Kate embraces a life filled with many adventures. When not transforming interiors, you might find her scouring Southern California’s vibrant flea markets, enjoying a run on the beach, or even (with a hint of good-natured hesitation) participating in the occasional extreme sport with her adventurous and athletic daughter.
