FOUNDER & CEO OF SEY INTERIORS
Kristen Reyes is the founder and principal designer of Sey Interiors, a full-service interior design studio based in Richardson, Texas. Her work is defined by a thoughtful balance between the technical and the beautiful—bringing clarity, structure, and intention to homes designed for real life.
Raised in a family of contractors, makers, and artists, Kristen grew up immersed in construction and renovation, developing an early understanding of how homes are built and how they function over time. After relocating multiple times before the age of fifteen, she also gained a thoughtful appreciation for the role a home plays in shaping comfort, routine, and belonging.
She later earned her degree in interior design and architecture from Miami University and began her career working with leading international firms on complex commercial projects, including corporate headquarters and luxury high-rise developments across Dallas.

That commercial foundation continues to inform Kristen’s residential work today. Sey Interiors specializes in large-scale renovations paired with comprehensive furnishings, guiding professional families through meaningful transformations—from the studs through final styling. Kristen leads each project personally, bringing technical fluency, thoughtful planning, and steady project leadership to every phase of design and construction. Her work is shaped by the personalities, lives, and experiences of her clients—she provides the structure and guidance, while they define the vision, resulting in homes that feel distinctly personal and entirely their own.
Kristen has been recognized as a design authority in BESPOKE: A Philosophy of Beauty and her work has been featured in Forbes, Southern Living, Homes & Gardens, and Business of Home. Outside of the studio, she lives in a 1960s post-war cottage in Richardson Heights with her husband, Carl, and their daughter, Ruthie. She is deeply invested in her local community and passionate about creating homes—and places—where people feel connected, supported, and truly at home.

DESIGN ASSISTANT
Joanne Diongzon
Joanne Diongzon supports the creative and logistical flow of projects at Sey Interiors. She holds a bachelor’s degree in Tourism Management from Canterbury Christ Church University and spent many years working in marketing roles across travel, nonprofit, and education sectors before pivoting into design. After spending six years at home raising her children, Joanne followed a long-standing interest in interiors and completed an Interior Design program in 2024. Today, she assists Kristen throughout the design process—sourcing materials and furnishings, updating floor plans, preparing presentations, and helping ensure each project moves forward with care and attention to detail.
What Joanne enjoys most about design is the individuality of every project. She loves translating a client’s personality and lifestyle into a home that truly reflects them, and finds it especially rewarding to see families fall in love with their spaces again. Outside the studio, Joanne enjoys spending time with her family, reading whenever she can steal a quiet moment, tending to her garden, and searching for antique treasures.
EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT
Gabi Frazelle
Gabi Frazelle brings organization, creativity, and energy to the daily operations of Sey Interiors. A graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, she joined the studio after answering a job listing for someone with “great organizational skills” and quickly discovered a passion for the design process. At Sey Interiors, Gabi manages client communication, oversees procurement, and leads the studio’s social media—helping projects move forward smoothly while keeping clients and the team aligned.
What Gabi enjoys most about design is witnessing transformation—whether it’s walking into a space that feels entirely new or hearing a client imagine how they’ll live in it. Outside the studio, she enjoys baking and needlepointing, often creating thoughtful pieces to share with friends and family.
