Testimonials

Grace P. Santa Monica, CA- I really enjoyed working with Kimba and her talented team. They came in, took a look, did some rearranging, arranged some reupholstering, a little repainting, and then brought in the few key pieces our house needed to tie everything together. We got to live with pieces before making decisions. The end result looks like our house -- but better. After seeing the improvement in our house, some friends hired her and had the same experience. She doesn't insist that you agree with everything, but has enough good ideas that you end up happy. Recycling what we had + adding what we needed + a giant dollop of Kimba's good taste = Speed Design.

The Berggren Family, Santa Monica, CA- Imagine a service where;
. A designer comes to your home to view and collaborate on what design elements are important to you and what could be changed.
. A showroom exists where you can make selections from an eclectic array of art, rugs, furniture and accessories.
. A designer returns to your home with a truck loaded full of your selections and many others to trial them in the light, space, and color of your home.
. A design is completed and you live amongst the selections before making your final choices.

This is Rumba Speed Design: a sensate process of creating a space that reflects your personal style and inspires you in the art of living with design.

We enjoyed this process and continue to enjoy it completely.

Pat W. Santa Monica, CA- I would like to give two thumbs up for Kimba's amazing transformation of our home recently.It was such a fun, and exciting process to allow Kimba's and Kim's creative juices to flow and return from a weekend away to our home that could rival any house in Dwell magazine. We felt part of the design process without the hassle of buying and waiting months to have it happen. Love the whole SpeedDesign thing.

Paulette R. Palos Verdes, CA Customer and Fan- A long, narrow room and dark floors didn't allow enough light to penetrate and made my living space gloomy and furniture placement awkward. After the Rumba Speed Design team put their considerable talent to work, however, my room was transformed into a modern, gracious space to entertain and live using a mix of my refurbished pieces along with the new that truly reflected my taste and functioned the way I hoped it could. I can't say enough about the team's professionalism and dedication to creating a home that makes me happy every time I walk in the door. Thanks, Rumba. You are the best!

Jennifer K. , Santa Monica, CA- We had recently moved and were daunted by the thought of incorporating our mismatched furniture into our new home while attempting to combine our personal taste with the seemingly incongruous style of the house. Kimba was able to put it all together – beautifully – and in-line with our budget. Kimba has a terrific eye for design and was able to upgrade some of our existing items with new, one-of-a-kind pieces to transform our home into a cohesive, stylish, functional space. Kimba and her team are a pleasure to work with!
