About Us

The company was established in 1982 in central London carrying out projects as mentioned previously. In 1996 the company moved to the country and continued working throughout the UK and abroad.

Jane Dodson is the main owner/director of KSD. Having finished her education she spent a year in Paris studying french literature and history of art, followed by working for an antique restorer in London specialising in painted & gilded furniture, japan/lacquer work and some picture/frame restoration. She then became a director of a creative advertising agency running the production department creating advertising campaigns and television commercials for prestigious clients.

The combination of classical restoration work and the more commercial requirements of the advertising world set her up with substantial knowledge to carry forward her passion for interior design.

KSD Design Company offers the full interior design service “from the chimney to the cellar” including consultations and design advice on all related topics. The company is able to source and acquire most items for residential or commercial projects and love the challenge of achieving the required end result. 

Philosophy

Jane believes in offering a totally bespoke service to each and every client – all of which are completely different with individual needs, lifestyles and modus operandi - and therefore each project is approached according to the client’s wishes and needs rather than imposing a particular style or look. We love the excitement of achieving a satisfactory result for each of our clients; most of with whom we keep in touch for many years and often carry out work for them on subsequent projects.
