Designing with Intention — Stories of Value & Vision | Couture & Construction Ep. 145

Описание: Welcome back to Season 11 of Couture & Construction! On today’s episode, host Andrew Denny welcomes Laura Lubin, the visionary founder and principal designer of Ellerslie Interiors, a distinguished design firm based in Nashville, Tennessee.

Laura delves into her philosophy of intentionality in design, exploring how the stories behind our choices shape the environments we inhabit. She shares her journey from San Francisco to Nashville, highlighting the shift in lifestyle and how it has influenced her approach to creating spaces that resonate with joy and comfort. Laura emphasizes the importance of understanding clients' lifestyles and aspirations, allowing her to craft interiors that reflect their true selves.

Let’s Sum It Up:
The concept of intentionality is central to creating spaces that evoke emotion and connection.
A designer's role extends beyond aesthetics; it involves being a steward of clients' resources and aspirations.
The evolving landscape of design encourages a return to personal narratives, fostering spaces that truly feel like home.

Until next time — keep cultivating creativity.
