President & Founder
"One of the greatest benefits in hiring The Design Source is Kris Keller's tremendous resources … Kris handled all of the details of my renovation project including the selecting, bidding, hiring, and overseeing of all of my contractors … I didn't need to get involved or become frustrated with my construction and installation process … Kris did it all … and I loved having everything in her hands!"

Kris Keller began her career 22 years ago and founded The Design Source Ltd., in 1992, a leading St. Louis design firm that specializes in home renovation, residential interior design, and custom home design services.
The Design Source Ltd. has more than 200 residential and custom home clients throughout St. Louis, and has designed some of the most unique interiors in the area. Resort homes, lake homes, and out-of-state residences are another growing segment of clientele that The Design Source services. One of The Design Source's St. Louis clients has a second home in Alabama and says, "Kris helped us coordinate our French Country lake house. Every element complements, beautifully, the design of the home with its huge windows and decks to the water. The home flows wonderfully from room to room."
Additional out-of-state project locations include Florida and Georgia.
Many of The Design Source's projects have been featured in St. Louis Homes & Lifestyles Magazine, Ladue News, and "Home" Improvement & Remodeling Magazine. In addition, The Design Source has earned several local awards for design excellence through the Home Builders Association's Annual Homer Awards Program as well as St. Louis Homes & Lifestyles Magazine's kitchen contests.
