About Us

Two Visionaries. One Mission: To help you love your home.

At DK Designs, we believe your home should be a representation of you, not a page from a catalog. We’ve combined over 30 years of renovation experience, a passion for bold color, and a high-level background in project management to create a design firm that is approachable, resourceful, and effective.

We aren’t here to design for the “elite”; we are here for the average homeowner who needs a decision-driver and a professional buffer to navigate the chaos of home improvement.

Let us help

Deanna “Dee” Kline

The Intuitive Designer

Born to a “MacGyver” dad and a creative mom in rural Ohio, Deanna was swinging hammers and wallpapering her own bedroom by the 3rd grade. That early spark turned into a 25-year career in design and renovation.

She focuses on your energy, your home’s potential, and how the two work together. Deanna coaches you through your space frustrations or mental barriers to reveal the possibilities. Whether you’re tackling a 100-year-old fixer-upper or a modern new build, Deanna thinks outside the box and believes in sustainable sourcing to create spaces that are soulful, unique, and (most importantly), functional for real families.

Design Superpower: Finding underutilized square footage and transforming it into spaces that work harder, flow better, and feel intentional.

Favorite Vibe: A neutral canvas highlighted with eclectic maximalism and punches of color.

Katie Black

The Strategic Creative

The newest “K” in the duo, Katie is a Boise native who brings a powerful technical edge to the team. With six years in the flooring and construction industry and a degree in Graphic Design, she bridges the gap between beautiful aesthetics and structural reality.

Katie is the engine that keeps projects moving. She understands “contractor language” and knows how to translate a vision into a tangible plan. She is passionate about balance, visual storytelling, and ensuring that every design is as livable as it is beautiful.

Design Superpower: Creating efficient, thoughtful solutions that transform how a space functions, both in the present and for the future.

Favorite Vibe: The warm wood tones of mid-century style and the minimal ideas of Scandinavian design, but always adding a touch of whimsy.

Dee is very talented! She always give a personal touch and really listens to her clients… she has a gift of walking into a space and giving suggestions that you never considered and will love! She’s helped us transform our home and we are very grateful.

I can’t say enough good things about Dee! I was completely stuck trying to figure out paint colors, flooring, and how to make my home feel cohesive and comfortable without losing my personal style. I felt so overwhelmed by the design process—but Dee stepped in and made everything effortless.

She guided me through every step with patience, creativity, and a great eye for detail. The paint colors and overall design she chose are absolutely perfect, and everyone who walks into my home compliments how beautiful and inviting it looks. Dee has a true talent for creating spaces that feel both stylish and personal. I’m so grateful for her help and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an interior designer who really listens and delivers stunning results.

Dee is so good at what she does. We have been struggling with our pantry. It’s not big enough and it’s in a terrible location. Dee took one look and had a great solution. She sees things differently and knows what will work and what won’t. So excited to have an upgraded pantry. Thanks Dee!

Deanna recently helped me choose a new paint scheme for my home interior, which hadn’t been painted in nearly 19 years! I wanted something fresh and new, but I was also pretty used to the way it had been, and Deanna was absolutely amazing with her insights! She has an extensive background with decorating, and it shows…and very easy to work with. I would highly recommend her services!

— Ron O’Brian

One of my favorite humans! She brings so much energy to any room (both personally and with her designs) and she just really knows how to create magic. Highly recommend her personalized service and genuine creativity and kindness. She’s a phenomenal human!
