Linda was my trusted guide as I transitioned from little rooms to large, soaring spaces. She wove my favorite rugs, art and furniture together with new ideas to make the best use of space, leaving each room sparkling.

Guidance from an Award-Winning Lake Placid Interior Designer

Designing a home in Lake Placid means thinking beyond looks. These are places meant to handle snow boots and long weekends, just as well as an elegant dinner with friends. Everyone has an ideal balance of practicality, beauty, and comfort. We’ll help you find yours.

Our work starts with listening. We take time to understand how you use the home, what could be better, and what your ultimate goals are. Founder and principal designer Linda Gerace-Skinner brings decades of experience to every project. She’s known for helping clients sort through options, narrow down choices, and make decisions they’re truly thrilled with.

As a firm, we specialize in full-service interior design for renovations, new construction, and whole-home furnishings. Here’s how the process typically works:

I. Consultation
We begin with an in-person visit to walk your Lake Placid home and talk through goals, priorities, and scope. This helps set a clear direction early on.

II. Design Development
Next, we move into design. Layouts, finishes, and furnishings are explored based on your project. Renovations and new builds focus on core decisions first. Furnishings projects move straight into plans and selections.

III. Presentation & Plan
This is where everything comes together. You’ll review drawings, materials, and selections that show the full direction before moving ahead.

IV. Construction Support
If construction is involved, we stay involved. We coordinate schedules, track progress, and keep communication moving as the work unfolds.

V. Procurement
Once selections are approved, we handle ordering, delivery tracking, and inspections behind the scenes.

VI. Installation
Installation day brings the space to life. Furniture, lighting, and finishing details are placed and adjusted until the home feels complete.

A Lake Placid home should feel like a place you can truly settle into, no matter the season. We’re here to help you get there.
