Claire Klos

Lead Interior Designer

Claire is a Colorado native, born and raised in Greenwood Village. She originally went to school for Economics at Boston College, but after working as a procurement manager for residential interior designers, she realized she wanted a more creative role. In 2020, Claire went back to school for Interior Design at Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design and is now both NCIDQ certified and a LEED Green Associate.

Claire’s prior experience is heavily in corporate and TI projects. She got a taste for hospitality design after designing restaurants in Aspen and fell in love with the extensive creative opportunities these projects offer. Claire brings her wide range of project experience, procurement management, and hospitality expertise to the diverse project types of Studio 10. Her favorite part of any project is coming up with a unique design concept and direction that suits the project. In her free time, Claire loves to hike, run, do yoga, and enjoy live music. After work you can find her running, walking her golden retriever, or at a local dive bar with friends.

Hidden talent?

I can play the drums!

What did you want to be when you were 10?

I wanted to be a vet because I absolutely love animals. I quickly realized any sort of medicine was not for me... and animals make better pets!

Bucket list items?

Like a true Colorado native, I love getting outside and hope to visit every National Park in the country. I have visited 15 of them but have plenty more to go. I find being in such awe-inspiring nature not only grounds me, but it offers endless design inspiration!

Personal mantra:

Inspiration can be found anywhere; you just have to keep your eyes and mind open!
