Who we are

My husband and I did a large full house renovation with Angie as our designer. We loved Angie from the first day we met her and she was the reason we decided to go ahead with the project. She took the time to get to know us and our preferences. She was very creative with redesigning our space. In overseeing the construction she was meticulous and demanded excellence from the subcontractors. Angie was always readily responsive to my communications. I love my new place and was totally happy working with Angie.

If you are looking for a kitchen and bath designer in Southwest Florida, look no further than Angie Keyes. Angie came highly recommended, and we now understand why: her talent and skill are unparalleled. Our kitchen is literally and figuratively the center of our home. Our house had a dark and impractical builder’s grade kitchen that was desperately in need of a refresh. My family and I had no idea what we wanted but knew that it needed to be brighter and more functional. It was exciting to work with Angie and see her creative vision at work. When Angie first visited our home, she immediately knew what needed to be done. Angie was practical and thought about how our family would actually live in and utilize the space. She hit it out of the park on the first design that she presented to us. We loved all of her selections and ideas—she somehow knew everything that we wanted and needed better than we did. She picked high-quality materials and partnered with an award-winning contractor to make our kitchen truly magazine worthy. Our new kitchen feels bright and airy, and it has become a place where friends and family now love to congregate. Angie also designed updates to our family room, half bath, and foyer that pulled our entire living space together. We are thrilled with Angie and believe that no other designer could have made our home feel so perfect.

Facing the complete remodel of our 30-year-old condo kitchen we had several "designer" recommendations. However, we searched to find a "Certified Kitchen Designer” knowing that this qualification provided assurance on all elements of the project. An online search identified Salt Water Design Group, Angie Keyes (owner), as providing the specialized certification. Our initial interview quickly convinced us Angie’s 30 plus years of experience, certification and ongoing national awards for kitchen projects convinced us that she would be our project manager. Offering to provide few or total services for the various components of this project we selected Salt Water Design without hesitation. From suggested layouts, to CAD design proposals, to material and product suggestions, to cost estimates, to contractor alternatives, to total project management we were confident Angie would meet our requirements. This included hiring the contractor for the construction and installation. As we were not to be present in the summer of 2021 Angie was to be our total “Project Manager”. Throughout the demolition, remodeling and installation Angie was in frequent communication including photos, phone calls, email, etc. as to the ongoing status. Upon return in September, we were “blown away” by the completed work. No hitches, no supply issues, no cost overruns, no change orders. Angie even suggested locations for kitchenware, dishes, glasses, etc. in the new cabinetry! We couldn’t be more pleased with Salt Water Design’s total services and would highly recommend the firm for all new and remodeled kitchen projects.

Angie's direction and guidance helped us so much on a complete renovation of our condo in Florida! She was instrumental in keeping the work on schedule and within budget. She was so helpful during the selection of lighting fixtures, ceiling fans, layout, paint colors, wall textures, kitchen appliances, and everything else. Very prompt with responses via texting, emails, and phone calls, she is a very good communicator and kept us informed and updated on the progress of the renovation along with any decisions that we had to make to keep the job moving smoothly. She stays on task and gets things done! She stays focused on quality too, performing her own punch list visits continuously. The results exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend Angie if you want quality, honest work done on time at a fair price!

Angie was our project designer for our "to the studs" remodel of our condo. We can not say enough good things about her. From her innovative designs to her respect for our budget, she made all our dreams come true! We were not on site and Angie's communication kept us informed as to the progress of the project and appreciated the updates and pictures. I would recommend Angie and her team to anyone in the Naples, FL area.

Angie was our 'great find'! Not only is she superb with design, she is a perfectionist and a dedicated & tireless worker for her clients. Angie thought of every detail and worked with us to create a kitchen & two baths from the bare walls - all three are lovely to look at and extremely functional. We will recommend her to our friends without hesitation.

Angie is amazing at the way she can change spaces using the existing floor plan. We kept our floors and by moving the counter tops and some of the island, the kitchen now functions so much better. The large openness, by removing decorative poles and moving the stove out of a corner, have changed the look of how the kitchen has become part of the family room. She was on top of every detail and also helped make many of the decorative choices along with plumbing and appliances. We would highly recommend her to anyone wanting to renovate.

Angie is a true professional. She is very talented, creative, knowledgeable, passionate, detail oriented and sure doesn't shy away from a design challenge. She builds long lasting relationships with her clients, who admire her work for years to come. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a Kitchen & Bath Designer.

Angie Keyes had the vision to take our newly purchased 1972 condo into 2020. We did a complete renovation and Angie guided us through all of the decisions - layout, lighting, cabinetry, appliances, paint colors, window treatments, and finishing material - while keeping it fun. We were doing this renovation from a distance, but Angie managed the job closely and constantly kept us informed. Angie paid attention to every detail!
