Desert, design, and some seriously impressive lighting. 🌵
Spent a few unforgettable days in Scottsdale with @LutronElectronics, getting an up-close look at their @KetraLighting system—easily one of the most advanced (and best-looking) lighting technologies out there. We made the rounds at a few architectural icons—Taliesin West, the Arizona Biltmore, and Arcosanti. Safe to say, the inspiration levels were high.
Huge thanks to @cecilia.e.ramos for the invite!

As a Designer at JayJeffers Inc., Katharine Kneisley loves the mix of creativity and problem-solving that comes with bringing a project to life. Some days she’s sourcing the perfect furniture pieces, other days she’s knee-deep in drawings, but her favorite days are spent at the design center, hunting for fabrics that add depth and character to a space.
Since joining the firm in 2021, she’s worked on a range of projects, but a standout was a Carmel Valley home where bold color and pattern took the spotlight—made even better by clients who embraced the unexpected. A background in Art History gives her a deep appreciation for craftsmanship, and she finds inspiration in old paintings, vintage books, and classic films.
Outside of design, she’s a self-proclaimed unpromising golfer, but that doesn’t stop her from enjoying a day on the course. The patience is a work in progress, but at least the outfits are on point. #JayJeffers

Still dreaming of San Sebastián… Tapas, talks, and a whole lot of design brilliance.

The dressing room of my San Francisco apartment takes look good, feel good to an entirely new level.
Designed as a backdrop for my #OOTD along with an evening nightcap, it features a rug by @KyleBunting inspired by Victor Vasarely, a painting by Forest Williams, a photograph by Matt Lipps from @YanceyRichardsonGallery, a vintage piece by Paul Laszlo, and a few extra personal touches. #JayJeffers

Color, texture, and a little drama—just how I like it.
My San Francisco apartment is a mix of bold statements and personal storytelling, with a portrait by @kaisamuelsdavis and a prized photograph by Catherine Wagner, courtesy of @jessicasilvermangallery, setting the tone. Paired with one of my favorite possessions, nightstands collected from the closing auction of the legendary Ed Hardy Antiques. #JayJeffers

I adore each piece in my Napa Valley home`s kitchen nook from the favorite Cloud chandelier by @apparatusstudio and dining table by Stephen Antonson ~ lots of laughs, coffees, and cocktails shared with friends here ~ to the 1950s cerused-oak cabinet that holds a cherished collection of vintage creamware. #JayJeffers

If there’s one person who keeps things running smoothly at JayJeffers Inc., it’s John Gilligan. Since joining in 2017, he’s been our Jack-of-All-Trades—managing our ever-evolving collection of furniture and accessories, which started as a public storefront and is now exclusive to design clients. He also coordinates vendors, handles logistics, and ensures every detail is in place for Jay’s signature networking events.
With a degree in Environmental Design and Space Planning from UCD, John’s career has spanned interior design and retail merchandising, with roles at Shears & Window, Candra Scott & Associates, and nearly every major retailer in Union Square. His time at Gump’s, designing window displays and curating first-floor merchandising, remains a favorite.
His love for history and architecture made working on The Madrona especially meaningful, diving into the site’s layered past and storied interiors. And when he’s not keeping our office and showroom in top shape, you’ll likely find him exploring San Francisco’s historic neighborhoods or heading to the coast for a reset. #JayJeffers
