RILEY KERGER
Lover of all things moody, cozy, and neutral, and always have been. You can find me watching open door tours on Architectural Digest, sharing beautiful designs on Instagram, reconfiguring the decor in my home, or spending time with the people I love most. My other loves include spending time in the summer sun or simply being outdoors.
My passion for design began at a young age. Continuously moving from home to home, having the responsibility of designing my own rooms, and helping with small renovations, ignited a spark within me, telling myself “This is what need to do”. Design is important to me and I am fascinated by how spaces truly impact people in almost every aspect of their lives. Kirkwood Community College has greatly impacted the way think, and changed my whole perspective on what design truly is, allowing me to fall in love with design all over again.
“YOUR HOME SHOULD TELL THE STORY OF WHO YOU ARE, AND BE A COLLECTION OF WHAT YOU LOVE.”
