Published Jul 16, 2026 9 min read JAC Interiors ![Top interior designers in Los Angeles — JAC Interiors](https://jacinteriorscdn.com/projects/fox-hills/fox-hills-1.jpg) Los Angeles has one of the deepest benches of interior design talent in the country — a mix of full-service firms handling ground-up estates, independent studios with a strong point of view, and boutique decorators who work fast on a single room. "Best" depends entirely on what you're hiring for, so instead of a ranked top 10, this is a working list of firms actually doing notable work across the city right now, organized by what each is known for. We're on this list too. We think that's fair — we've been designing homes across LA since 2012 — but we've tried to describe everyone here, including ourselves, in terms of what they actually do well rather than superlatives. ## JAC Interiors **Known for:** full-service residential design across LA's most distinctive neighborhoods, from Malibu and Pacific Palisades to [Silver Lake](https://jacinteriors.com/cities/silverlake) and [Downtown](https://jacinteriors.com/cities/downtown-la). JAC Interiors is a full-service studio handling everything from single-room refreshes to whole-home renovations and new construction, with in-house procurement and white-glove installation. The practice is built around neighborhood-specific design — a Spanish Revival home in Hancock Park gets treated differently than a mid-century property in the Hollywood Hills — rather than applying one signature look to every client. Clients tend to be homeowners who want a single point of contact managing design, procurement, and installation from first call to final placement, without hiring separate firms for each phase. If you want to see the range, the [project portfolio](https://jacinteriors.com/projects) spans coastal, hillside, and urban homes across the city, and the [neighborhood guides](https://jacinteriors.com/cities-we-serve) go into what's architecturally distinct about each area JAC works in. [![JAC Interiors residential project — Los Angeles](https://jacinteriorscdn.com/projects/colette-way/collette-way-1.jpg)](https://jacinteriors.com/projects/colette-way) Colette Way ## Kelly Wearstler **Known for:** maximalist, sculptural interiors with a strong material and color point of view, spanning residential and hospitality. Kelly Wearstler's studio is one of the most recognizable names in American interior design, with a body of work that includes private residences and boutique hotels. Her aesthetic — bold pattern, unexpected material pairings, custom furniture — is distinctive enough that clients typically come to her specifically for that look, rather than a neutral or highly personalized style. ## Commune Design **Known for:** a collaborative, multi-disciplinary approach blending architecture, interiors, and product design, often with a Californian, artisanal sensibility. Commune works across residential, hospitality, and retail, and is known for projects that feel curated rather than decorated — a mix of vintage finds, custom pieces, and commissioned art. It's a strong fit for clients who want a layered, collected-over-time look rather than a showroom-fresh one. ## Studio Shamshiri **Known for:** warm, texturally rich interiors that draw on Persian and Californian influences, often in architecturally significant homes. Founded by siblings Pamela and Ramin Shamshiri, the studio has built a reputation for restraint — rooms with a strong material palette (plaster, stone, timber) rather than heavy ornamentation. It tends to suit clients with a strong architectural shell already in place who want interiors that support the architecture rather than compete with it. ## Martyn Lawrence Bullard **Known for:** glamorous, globally-influenced interiors for high-profile residential clients, often blending historical reference with contemporary comfort. Martyn Lawrence Bullard's work leans maximalist and richly layered — think bold pattern mixing, antique and vintage sourcing, and a willingness to commit fully to a theme. It's a good fit for clients who want a home that reads as a considered, personality-driven statement rather than a restrained backdrop. ## Consort **Known for:** refined, quietly luxurious interiors with careful attention to proportion and craftsmanship, frequently in architecturally notable homes. Consort — the studio behind projects like the restoration of Case Study House-era properties — is known for a restrained hand: rich materials and considered furniture placement rather than statement pieces. Clients tend to be drawn to the studio for projects where getting the architecture-to-interior relationship right matters as much as the furnishings themselves. [![Full-service interior design project — Los Angeles](https://jacinteriorscdn.com/projects/columbus-way/columbus-way-1.jpg)](https://jacinteriors.com/projects/columbus-way) Columbus Way ## Amber Interiors **Known for:** approachable, California-casual interiors with a strong retail and product presence alongside the design practice. Amber Interiors built a large following on a relaxed, livable aesthetic — natural materials, soft neutrals, and a look that photographs well but doesn't feel precious. The studio also runs a retail arm, which makes it a recognizable name even to people who haven't hired a designer before. It suits clients who want warmth and livability over formality. ## How to figure out which firm actually fits Every firm on this list does excellent work, but "excellent" isn't the differentiator — fit is. Before reaching out to anyone, get clear on three things: the scope of your project (single room versus whole-home renovation), your real budget, and the aesthetic direction you're drawn to. A firm whose portfolio consistently nails maximalist, pattern-heavy interiors is not the right call if what you actually want is quiet and restrained, no matter how talented the studio is. We've written a longer breakdown of [how to choose an interior designer](https://jacinteriors.com/blog/how-to-choose-an-interior-designer) that covers the questions to ask in a first conversation, what to look for in a portfolio, and the red flags worth walking away from — worth reading regardless of which firm you end up talking to.
