WHAT THE CLIENTS ARE SAYING...

Testimonials Page

“I was a longtime fan of Postobello. I fell in love with the designs and would make lists of all the pieces I coveted. And then I was able to actually experience what Jen really does. She is essentially a space therapist. She’s able to get a sense of who you are and can make a space flow and fill it with the most beautiful objets d’art. The beauty she leaves behind in essence helps you live a more beautiful life.”

— MJ, Hollywood, CA

“Jen Kates is hands down one of the most creative women I have ever met! She has an incredible sense of style and interior design comes as natural to her as breathing. She has an uncanny ability to walk into any room and see its potential when others cannot. Her energy is infectious and she can perform miracles in a fraction of the time it would take others in her field. Her incredibly detailed approach to staging bookshelves and making a home feel warm and cozy is truly a gift. Her generosity, warm personality and big heart make working with her a pure joy and is woven into the tapestry of everything that she does both professionally and personally. I’m always sad when we have finished a project together but always look forward to the next one!”

— MW, Beverly Hills, CA, Sunset Plaza, CA

“I have had the good fortune of working with Jen Kates on multiple occasions.  Jen not only has classic and timeless style, she also knows how to envision how one lives in their home. I have watched her work a room like an artist works a painting: moving things around in a swift and sure-footed way until the end result takes your breath away.  Jen is a master of understanding your personality and style and combining it with her impeccable taste to create something that realizes the vision (and even better quite frankly) that you imagined.  She is a special human being and a brilliant designer.”  

— JP, Los Angeles, CA, Sun Valley, ID
