The ‘Why’ Behind The Studio at K|D

This time last year we celebrated 30 years of Kirkendall Design and the opening of The Studio at K|D! We wanted to take a moment to look back at the ‘why’ behind The Studio and share some exciting updates. 

Over the years of providing interior design services in Tulsa, we’ve built amazing relationships with our clients, helping them create spaces that reflect their unique stories. These connections and our desire to help people live fuller, more beautiful lives is what led to the creation of The Studio at K|D.

In 2022, we began renovating The Studio—previously known as Grogg’s Green Barn, a local plant nursery—into a stunning multi-use space. Now, it serves as our interior design studio and a versatile event venue and photography studio.

We’ve learned a lot over the past year and made a few updates based on your feedback. Here’s what’s new at The Studio at K|D!

Photography Studio

One of the biggest changes since opening, is that you no longer need a memberships to use our photography studio! Our focus remains on high-end lifestyle, corporate, and branding photoshoots, catering to business leaders and professionals looking to elevate their brands with fresh photography.

Whether you are a photographer, or an individual or group needing photography, The Studio is the perfect backdrop. Schedule today!

Our outdoor space is now complete, featuring a turf lawn, pergola, and spacious deck—perfect for outdoor entertaining! Inside, we can host up to 120 guests for corporate functions, philanthropic events, and business meetings. While we specialize in corporate and philanthropic events, we also welcome select personal occasions for Kirkendall Design clients and referrals. Learn more or inquire.

Flower Farm

Our flower farm, managed by The Heirloom Acre Farm, has bloomed beautifully, providing us with fresh flowers in The Studio every week. Our recent U-pick events, hosted by The Heirloom Acre, were a big hit. We’re grateful for their partnership and look forward to even more flower experiences next season!

Lifestyle Workshops

We kicked off our workshops with a bang this year, and we loved seeing people come together for classes on cooking, gardening, sourdough bread making, and more!. We’re working on the line up for future workshops. Stay tuned for updates!
