KEO design
Built On Vision.
Backed By Execution.
Residential and commercial spaces with design at the center and purpose in every detail.
Keo Design Group is a design-build firm specializing in residential renovations, commercial buildouts, home building, ADUs, concept design, and 3D visualization. Every project is guided by thoughtful planning, clear coordination, and a finished space that feels intentional from the start.
BOLD
SPACES
Concept Design & Visualization
We help homeowners, developers, and business owners see what’s possible before they build. Through concept layouts, floor plans, space planning, and realistic 3D renderings, we bring early ideas into focus before major design or project decisions are made.
These visuals and plans are created for concept planning only and are not final architectural, engineering, or permit-ready drawings. For projects moving forward, our design-build process helps carry the vision from concept into the next phase.
General
Contracting
From home renovations and additions to commercial buildouts for offices, retail spaces, and restaurants, we lead the construction process from planning through completion. Our team manages the details, coordinates the work, and executes each project with clear communication, quality craftsmanship, and a finished result that reflects the original vision.
We also support select public sector and community-based projects. Licensed, insured, and bonded in Maryland. MHIC #152998.
Home Building
& ADUs
From custom homes to modern accessory dwelling units, we guide new construction projects from early concept into build-ready planning. This includes backyard homes, guest suites, home offices, creative studios, and small business spaces designed for the way you want to live and work.
Our design-build approach connects the vision, planning, and construction process under one coordinated experience. Registered home builder in Maryland. MHBR #9193. ADU planning consultations are now available.

WOMAN

& OPERATED
I’m a freelance digital designer crafting user-focused experiences. Blending visual design with user research, I build intuitive and visually compelling digital products.
Great spaces do not happen by accident.
Before founding Keo Design Group, Keo Atkins spent over 16 years shaping branded retail environments, planning spaces, and leading project execution. Her work brings together design vision, spatial strategy, and real-world build knowledge, giving every project a stronger foundation from the start.
PRECISION MEETS PURPOSE.
Every project is approached with intention, whether it begins as a renovation, commercial buildout, or early design concept. Design shapes the direction, while real-world planning keeps each idea grounded, practical, and ready to move forward.
