Kevin Kelly has a First Class Honours in Chemical Engineering from UCD and an M.B.A. from Trinity. He played rugby for Dublin and Leinster. After graduation he worked for two large textile companies, Courtaulds of Coventry and Mafattals of Bombay before setting up T.C. Carpets in 1972.

In 1976 he moved to Dawson Street and opened his Interior Design Showrooms with his wife Carol. Their business is the oldest in central Dublin concentrating on the residential sector of the market.

Now established since 1993 in the thriving village of Donnybrook, Dublin 4, their showroom has a magic and mesmerising display of all the latest fabrics, carpets and wallcoverings. Having being established so long, a lot of their business is from loyal customers but new customers are always welcome. A large panel of top class fitters, decorators and tradesmen support the company.
