Ask Kent and Co., home of New York Interior Designer Kent Brasloff

Profile

Kent Brasloff is a New York-based interior designer

Known primarily for his contemporary and ethnic-eclectic designs, Wainscot Media named him a “designer to watch” in 2007.

He will, in 2008, appear at the Architectural Digest Home Show, offering free consultations to show-goers; continue to serve on the Board of the National Kitchen and Bath Association; and co-chair a new forum for independent interior designers in the region.

He is a past prop stylist for the Princeton, New Jersey, Designer Showcase; and has collaborated with the Nassau County Museum of Art.

Media attention for Brasloff includes Manhattan Neighborhood Network’s Design Your Life, New York Spaces Magazine, Designer Magazine, Hearst’s House Beautiful: Home Remodeling and Decorating and the Tokyo Shim bun.

Bestdecoratingideas.com, Designer Index at homeportfolio.com and Viewrooms.com are but three web sites that feature his projects.

Prior to establishing his firm, Ask Kent and Co., in 2000, Brasloff freelanced for several New York City interior design firms and interned for home furnishings and fashion trend-forecasting company, Nigel French Enterprises, in London, England.

Before arriving in the Big Apple, Brasloff was Director of Display in his family owned-and-operated retail furniture business.

He holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Illustration and Design from the University of Kansas and an Associate of Occupational Studies Degree, in Merchandising and Management, from The Tobé-Coburn School in New York.

A native of Olivette, Missouri, Brasloff knew by the age of seven that he wanted to be an interior designer; and by the age of eight that he wanted to live and work in New York.
