Kara Smith

With a lifelong passion for entertaining, a successful stint in fashion and a career interior designer, Kara Smith has made a name for herself as a lifestyle tastemaker. As President and Partner of California-based interior design firm, sfa design, Kara lends her eclectic tastes to the homes of Hollywood’s elite, the world’s most luxurious hotels and a bevy of international residences for royalty and diplomats alike. A constant search for innovative design concepts leads her to exotic countries, local artisans and vintage boutiques, but in the end, Kara always looks first to her clients for inspiration. Incorporating a silhouette from the runway in a custom piece of furniture, or throwing a color palette together based on a beautiful floral arrangement, Kara’s passions continuously collide in for the form of beautifully avant-garde spaces, perfectly unique to her clientele.
