For Teresa, the utmost goal of design– and her primary objective–is to create an environment that empowers others to live their best stories.

Since 2005, Teresa Kessler has focused her creative energy and talents on designing spaces and structural art for both residential and commercial applications. The guiding inspiration behind each project is the development of relationships with clients and the application of their personal culture and values to all aspects of the design. Implementing a design strategy that encourages clients to join the process, Teresa guides clients to envision and realize the possibilities of their space within the context of their lifestyle.

Teresa also celebrates each structure’s connection to local history and its surroundings, as well as to her client’s own life narrative. She strives to recognize and enhance those relationships, often by incorporating works from local artists and by designing custom pieces that embody her client’s aesthetic and accomplish the desired function.

To pursue her ideology that design should exceed expectation in form, function and sustainability, Teresa became a LEED Accredited Professional in 2009.
