The Usual Suspects
Kelly + Olive Interior Design
Police: 911, what’s your emergency?
Caller: My apartment — it’s dead to me.
Police: Someone will be right over.
Knock knock.
Caller: Hello?
Knocker: It’s Kelly + Olive, here to revive your space.
K + O enter.
K + O: We’ve got a stage two rental situation. Neon and pattern overdose. Carpet that could gag a maggot. We’ll need a cleanup for this one.
Caller: I’m innocent!
K + O: They all are, hon. Give our Cheapskate package a shot: a few quick fixes (swapping out artwork, rearranging furniture), repurposing, and a shopping list of must-haves. We’ll even shop with you. Let us take a stab at it. Our Big Pimpin’ package is killer: color consulting, choosing carpet, tile, paint, and more. We even do on-call consulting for quick tips. Oh, you look bored. Guess we’ll leave the designing to you.
Caller: Over my dead body.
