KRISTA W. ALTERMAN, ASID, IIDA, IDS

Executive & Creative Director

Krista Watterworth Alterman is a nationally recognized interior designer and creative director known for shaping refined, livable luxury across the United States, the Caribbean, and Mexico. Founded on the belief that interiors should be lived in with ease yet crafted with intention, her studio, Krista + Home, reflects a modern vision of luxury informed by architecture, travel, and culture.

With over two decades of experience, Krista has led the design of multi-million-dollar private residences, luxury communities, and legacy destinations such as Baker’s Bay and other resort enclaves. Her work balances permanence and modernity, creating interiors that feel timeless yet unmistakably of the moment.

Krista reached a global audience through her work as a television designer on HGTV, refining her ability to translate high design into real life—spaces that are as functional as they are emotionally resonant.

Today, as the luxury interior design division of Vesta, Krista + Home operates at the intersection of architecture, interiors, and brand-level storytelling. Krista leads large-scale residential and development projects with a holistic, full-scope approach defined by cohesion, longevity, and visual clarity, often brought to life through cinematic 3D design narratives.

Her signature aesthetic, The New Coastal Edit, is a quiet, fashion-informed expression of luxury—architectural, layered, and disciplined. Krista + Home has been featured in Architectural Digest, House Beautiful, Luxe, Modern Luxury and other leading publications, establishing Krista Watterworth Alterman as a design voice defined not by trend, but by enduring vision.
