At Kennedy Contemporary, we love collaborating with interior designers. Over the past decade, numerous design professionals and their clients have relied on our expertise to select and install art.
By combining our knowledge in contemporary art with an understanding of design, we make the process seamless, efficient, and rewarding for everyone involved.
Whether you’re an interior designer in Newport Beach, Orange County, or beyond, our approach ensures that every project reflects your client’s vision while maintaining the impact and integrity of the artwork.
Selecting Art for Key Spaces in Your Home
Guiding the Conversation Around Budget and Impact
Selecting art for a home or commercial project requires balancing aesthetics with investment. We work with designers to identify the primary “impact” spaces—rooms or walls where the art will make the biggest visual statement.
These impact spaces are typically public spaces in commercial projects (such as lobbies) or highly trafficked rooms in private homes (such as entryways, living rooms, or dining rooms). From there, we provide guidance on budget allocation, helping designers prioritize high-impact pieces while maintaining cohesion across the space.
Timing is everything — the best timing to approach this conversation is from the beginning. We’ve found that the designers who are most successful at placing art are those that encourage their clients to budget for artworks and select the art alongside the furniture.
This ensures every dollar is well-spent and every space is thoughtfully curated, whether the project is a single room or an entire home.
Measuring and Mockups
One of the most common challenges in design projects is ensuring art fits perfectly. At Kennedy Contemporary, we meticulously measure spaces and artworks to create realistic mockups before installation.
This attention to detail prevents surprises and gives both designers and clients confidence in the final layout. It’s one of the reasons interior designers rely on our Newport Beach art consulting services to make their lives easier.
Handling Transport, Storage, and Installation
Logistics can be a major stress point in design projects. We handle all aspects of transport, storage, and professional installation, making sure each piece arrives safely and is displayed flawlessly.
By taking care of these details, designers can focus on the broader vision for the space while knowing that the artwork is in expert hands.
Trade Pricing for Interior Designers
We offer exclusive trade pricing to interior designers without marking up the artwork above retail pricing. This helps our design partners deliver exceptional results for their clients without compromise.
