ABOUT

Wood & Locks is a design studio rooted in the belief that function is freedom.

We specialize in creating deeply considered spaces—tiny homes, Airstreams, and interiors—that adapt to how people truly live. Our work is grounded in human-centered design, where every element has purpose, and beauty emerges from thoughtful utility. Through close collaboration with builders, fabricators, and craftspeople, we bring high-performing spaces to life—spaces that move with you, support your rhythm, and make room for what matters.

Behind the designer.

Wood & Locks is a creative studio led by Kelly Lockwood Padgett, a designer with over a decade of experience in creative direction, experiential environments, and spatial storytelling. The studio was founded on a simple belief: great design should work beautifully—supporting the way we live, move, and evolve.

Specializing in interiors for tiny homes, ADUs, Airstreams, and small-space sanctuaries, Wood & Locks merges functional design with a modern, soulful aesthetic. Every space is shaped with intention—where flow, flexibility, and feeling are equally prioritized. The result is a space that lives large, no matter its size.

Kelly’s background in experiential advertising and event design gives her a unique perspective on interiors—not just as static spaces, but as living systems that adapt to the people they serve. Her work blends spatial efficiency with big-picture vision, always rooted in human-centered principles and modular thinking.

At the heart of Wood & Locks is a collaborative spirit. The studio partners with local and global craftspeople who share a love of problem solving, smart solutions, and building with purpose. Whether it’s a foldaway dining table, a reimagined Airstream, or an ADU that adapts over time, Wood & Locks is committed to design that is as thoughtful as it is transformative..

A word from our clients.

  • Kelly was a joy to work with. My wife and I would highly recommend Kelly for any interior design work--she is truly outstanding."

    Russell, Farmhouse Airstream Office

  • Kelly took the bull by the horns and made the process so much easier than we could’ve ever imagined. One bonus is that her render images are exceptional. Highly recommend her niche talent as an airstream transformation artist!!! 

    Crain, LaLaLand Events Airstream

  • Working with Kelly to transform my vintage Play Mor camper exceeded my expectations. I'm incredibly happy with the quality of the work and the materials she used and absolutely love my new-old camper turned office/meditation space.
