Kelsi Swank

Creative Director

As SALT’s Creative Director, Kelsi Swank brings a unique blend of visual storytelling, bold design thinking, and deep attention to detail. Since joining SALT in 2014, she has helped define the studio’s creative voice—shaping environments that are as meaningful as they are beautiful.


With 15 years of experience spanning residential, hospitality, commercial, and healthcare interiors, Kelsi is known for her ability to craft immersive spaces rooted in story, place, and purpose. Her background in residential design adds a sense of warmth and personality to commercial projects, while her eye for composition and materiality ensures cohesion at every scale.


Kelsi’s portfolio includes award-winning work across Alaska, from the ASID-honored Aurora Hotel in Nome to large-scale corporate and hospitality interiors. She brings fluency in FF&E, 3D rendering, and conceptual graphics—often helping clients see and feel the full potential of their projects early in the process.


A graduate of the Art Institute of Seattle (BFA, Interior Design), Kelsi is an Allied Member of ASID and a longtime contributor to Alaska’s design community. Her leadership is collaborative and hands-on, grounded in curiosity and a belief that design should elevate both everyday experiences and long-term outcomes.


At SALT, Kelsi leads creative direction across design projects, translating big ideas into environments that reflect the people and communities they serve. Her work doesn’t just look good—it resonates.
