Sunday is my favorite day of the week. It’s slow and easy by design. Sunday’s for me are breakfast in bed, a lovely pot of tea, a stack of landscaping books, an English detective show playing in the background and a sketchbook close by.
What are your favorite Sunday activities?

ONE ROOM AT A TIME ✨

This March, I’m hosting an intimate, in-home design workshop for those who love creating beautiful spaces and want to learn how designers really think.

One Room at a Time is a full-day, hands-on course taught in my home, where we’ll walk through floor plans, color stories, pattern mixing, furniture, lighting, and the art of layering, using real rooms as our guide.

🗓 March 13–14
⏰ 9 AM – 4 PM
👥 Limited to 8 guests per day
🍽 Lunch + tea included

Whether you’re working on your own home or simply love the design process, this is a chance to slow down, ask questions, and build a room with confidence, one layer at a time.

✨ Space is very limited.

It seems rather fitting that today, the beginning of the Chinese New Year and The Year of the horse, I should find this sketch that I drew in 1983. I was 15 years old ,my life revolved around ponies and horses. Freedom, energy,strength and forward momentum are the traits of this year.

It’s my New Year and a time to re engage and make decisions.

A time of action.

Wishing everyone a happy New Year .

One of my other great loves is flower arrangement. I get to play stylist on photo shoots and let my imagination have free rain. Here is a snippet from one of my recent completed projects.

I love a good dramatic branch and keep clippers in my car incase I see something fabulous, at which point I veer off the road and get to pilfering…

A simple branch can sometimes create a stunning visual, unexpected and dramatic.

So get your clippers out and go wandering.

Custom bed frames are the epitome of luxury bedroom design. I design them for all my clients. Whether it’s a full frame or a headboard I love the option of adding a beautiful fabric to the bed. It feels so grounding to me and adds that additional layer.

I custom design all of my headboards and manufacture them here in North Carolina.

Are you considering updating your bedroom if so let’s consult.

We have all sorts of new programs to fit your design needs.

Classics never date. This house of a long term client I first designed 18 years ago in the era of reds and golds. Roll forward many years later and we reimagined it by lightening the color palette, painting once heavy dark trim and reupholstering the existing furniture with new more neutral colors.

I have always stayed away from trends and create interiors that are classics and timeless.

I’m especially fond of soft natural colors these days but I always love a pattern or two thrown in for good measure.

What is your favorite color palette?

Kitchen design is a challenge in breaking the old stereo types and giving them a fresh new perspective.

Kitchens have become more prominant as floor plans have shifted to more open plan spaces.
So in my opinion they have to have more interest than the typical cabinet layouts.

I like rethinking storage options, islands, vent hoods, actually all parts of the kitchen. I want them to have architectural components, Volume and unexpected details.

If you are working on a new build or contemplating a renovation, e mail us for a free 30 minute consultation to assess your design needs.

Let’s design.

A calm warmth envelopes this primary suite. My clients are world travelers and they wanted their bedroom to feel like a luxurious hotel but with exquisite fabrics.

The combination of a lush wool carpet, heavily lined linen drapes, mohair fully upholstered bed frame and a silk mohair upholstered oversized chair and ottoman, leave you wanting to stay in bed. I enveloped the room with a deep seal grey to finish off the feel.

Happy snoozing

🤍Lorraine

I designed and manufactured the upholstery to perfectly fit the space.
