Our Services

Our Manifesto

We are passionate about partnering with our clients to design homes that are both creatively inspired and uniquely personal. With honesty and dedication at the core of our process, we craft elevated, functional spaces that reflect your story and bring joy to everyday living.

"Extraordinary is the first word that comes to mind when I think of Katy + Elissa. Their ability to take your vision, conceptualize it, the creativity, agility to make changes throughout the design process, and then how they execute on projects is outstanding."

Principal Designers

Swell Design Co. is a partnership between friends, Katy and Elissa. After spending nearly a decade collaborating on each other’s designs, vintage shopping, and creating art for their own homes, they began taking on requests from friends and family and eventually turning their passion into a full service interior design studio in 2018.

Swell designs homes with an eclectic mix of relaxed modern and vintage charm. They bring personality into each project through their own artwork and textiles, inspired by earthy elements and rich colors. They consider themselves curators of cozy, functional and fun style, and specialize in creating beautiful, livable spaces for the modern family.

Based in Monmouth County, serving the surrounding areas of Atlantic Highlands, Sea Bright, Rumson, Fair Haven, and Middletown, NJ.
