A Life in Design
I'm Lillian Reed, an interior designer with a maker's mind and a storyteller's imagination. I believe the most compelling interiors are those with something to say. I'm endlessly curious, rather opinionated about beautiful things, and happiest when faced with a problem that doesn't have an obvious answer. I have a particular affection for the unusual, a healthy disregard for the phrase “that's how it's always been done,” and a tendency to get thoroughly carried away by a good idea. Fortunately, I've made a career of doing just that.
From the workshops of Designed & Made to the studios of Summer Thornton and Nicole Fisher, my career has been an exploration of the space between imagination and execution. I move fluently between concept and construction, bringing equal devotion to the poetry of an idea and the precision required to bring it into being.
The Maker’s Mind
Trained in furniture design and woodworking, I understand the art of making as intimately as the art of imagining.
Drawn to history, fantasy, and the unexpected, I create interiors that are richly personal and full of character.
