David Kleinberg is one of the most respected and celebrated names in interior design. He honed his talent during his 16-year tenure at Parish-Hadley, beginning in 1981. David left Parish-Hadley in 1997 to start his own firm, David Kleinberg Design Associates, which today employs 20 people. His firm is on both the AD 100 2026 Hall of Fame and the Elle Décor 2026 A-List Legends.
