Kern & Co. is fantastic! The selection is not only plentiful, but is of great quality. They truly go above & beyond in helping you with design, procuring furniture as well as thinking of all the details. In fact, there are things that I wouldnt have selected on my own that I am so pleased I did. They sort of pushed me a little outside of my comfort zone, which is a sure sign of a great designer, and I have some incredible pieces in my home to show for it. Everybody there is really kind & welcoming and Im so grateful for their help. Starting with Viviani who does magic on her drawings allowing

I am not one for posting reviews, however I had to share my exceptional experience at Kern & Co. After working with Carol over a course of 5 months to revitalize my home, I finally have a home I am excited to live in. The entire process was easy and flawless. She addressed every one of my concerns and kept me in the loop with everything. I had more of a say throughout the process and felt like I was finally working with someone who is truly knowledgeable in her field. Thank you Carol and the team at Kern & Co!

Amazing store! Friendly and knowledgeable staff which was the best part about my experience. Susan Spath at her Kern and Co store went above and beyond to meet my interior design needs, which consisted of going under budget for my living and dining room necessities as well as exceeding the completion date! Highly recommend to anyone wanting the best in interior design and products.

We have been working with Susan Spath and Genny Chale of Kern & Company for over 15 years. They have helped us remodel two of our homes here in Del Mar , as well as, our home in Houston.
Susan was instrumental in our recent design/build of our new home in Del Mar. She reviewed our plans to insure that every detail, from electrical,lighting, views, flow and furniture placement was taken into consideration by our architect.
Susan provided us with detailed drawings of all our cabinets, space interiors and design, so we could visualize how everything would turn out. Susan even went so far as to share

What a pleasure it was to work with Susan Spath of Kern & Co. in Solana Beach during the recent remodel of my La Jolla Condo. Susan guided me through the selections floor to ceiling; She helped me decide the paint color, type of flooring and bathroom tile giving me confidence in my choices and adding beauty and value. The design advice and help Susan offers is priceless when there are so many major decisions to be made. With so much furniture in the store I was able to have many pieces delivered right away. Kern & Co. went over and beyond to assist me.
