The ‘Why’ Behind The Studio at K|D

In the Fall of 2023, we celebrated 30 years of Kirkendall Design and the opening of The Studio at K|D! We want to take a moment to look 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 recently made a few updates to our Studio offerings based on your feedback. Here’s what’s new at The Studio at K|D!

Photography Studio

Whether you are a photographer, or needing photography services, The Studio is the perfect backdrop for your next photoshoot. One of the biggest changes since opening, is that you no longer need a membership 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.

Flower Farm

Our flower farm, managed by The Heirloom Acre Farm, bloomed beautifully during its first year, providing us with fresh flowers in The Studio. Our summer 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!
