Sally Wilson, ASID and John Kelsey from the Boston Interior Design Firm Wilson Kelsey Design are experts at creating bathrooms – from sparkling jewel-like powder rooms to luxurious master baths and spas – and their assemblage of awards proves the point. The interior design firm has won numerous awards for their renovation and creative design expertise. On November 7, 2012, Sally Wilson will take her expertise and present examples of alluring bathrooms at a seminar enticingly titled “From Studs to Stunning: Remodeling Tips from the Pros.” Sponsored by Designer Bath Salem Plumbing Supply of Salem, Massachusetts the seminar will feature a team of pros who will present behind-the-scenes tips on how to achieve dreamlike bathrooms with mindful adherence of budget and schedule. Other guest panelists include Gary Moffie of The Remodeling Company, Mark Rohl of ROHL and moderator Mary Beth Haggerty, ASID New England Chapter President and owner of The Drawing Room Interior Design.
Current trends in bath design include expansive showers, soaking tubs, heated floors, use of daylight and soft evening lighting. Sally Wilson will explore the concept of total transformation, showing intriguing before, during and after photos of projects that offer inspiration and guidance. Sally has often said that “powder rooms should be little jewel boxes, and even small bathrooms can have that air of a calm retreat.”
About Wilson Kelsey Design

Based in the greater Boston area, the duo is unique in that they bridge the gap between architect and decorator. They share a strong technical background, including the ability to read and prepare architectural drawings. The former producer of This Old House referred to their work as “heavy-duty interior design.” In organizing their firm, they have divided the labor between them into the “hard” and the “soft”. John designs and details the hard – interior architectural detailing, cabinet design, lighting, interior construction drawings, construction field supervision, and consultant coordination. Sally initiates and implements project concepts inclusive of interior design, furniture, decorative lighting, antiques, fabrics, and color and finish selections. The homes they design are elegant and sophisticated but always with a sense of comfort and livability. With backgrounds in commercial and corporate design as well as private residences the team specializes in a variety of project types.
