KRISTOFER KEITH
FOUNDER | SPACECRAFT DESIGN GROUP
A 2012 Boutique 18 honoree, Keith is blunt-spoken and very busy. In the profile of
him that appeared in the pages of BD two years ago, this design maverick said,
"If you're great at what you do, recessions don't affect you. You actually grow because
the economy cleans out all your competition and clears the field for potential clients."
That brash outlook, coupled with his firm's turn-key approach to projects-he's a licensed
contractor-have translated into a bumper crop of restaurant commissions in LA,
including 3Dog Cantina, Goa and Kitchen24. One of his most recent undertakings,
the BO-beau kitchen + rooftap, is profiled on page 22.
MICHELLE BOVÉ
STUDIO DIRECTOR | GRIZFORM DESIGN ARCHITECTS
THIS NEW JERSEY native is a seasoned traveler, drawing design inspiration from Mexico's
colorful structures, Gaudi's creations in Barcelona and the picturesque landscapes of
Rwanda, among others. A licensed architect and LEED-accredited professional, Bové
joined GrizForm in 2006. She has recently worked on several adaptive reuse (AR) projects
for the firm, including three restaurants in the Washington, D.C., area. She is one of three
design experts offering insights into the special challenges (and rewards) of working on
such rehab projects in the "Urban Renewal" feature that starts on page 28.

together my passions: design, travel and real estate," she says. What she didn't know is that
she'd one day work for one of the most recognizable figures on the planet. "Donald Trump and
his children are visionaries, and their entrepreneurial spirit encourages deal making without
unnecessary bureaucracy," says the former real estate lawyer and hospitality consultant. The
organization's refusal to be cookie cutter is a big plus for Rakhlin, who aims to play a major
role in the Trump Hotel Collection's goal to have a global 30-hotel portfolio by 2020. She's also
one of four judges from this year's Gold Key Awards to offer insights on what it takes to land a
design commission in the "Client Confidential" feature on page 14.
