For Raleigh-based interior designer Lindsay Speace, inspiration is never in short supply. With a flair for color, textiles, and decorative arts, her designs are effortlessly cool and collected. “I’m constantly keeping an eye out for pieces that make my heart skip a beat and have a story to tell. Textiles, art, and antiques are my biggest passions and are frequently the jumping-off point for my design work. Independent artisans and craftsmen inspire me immensely, and introducing my clients to their work is incredibly rewarding. Nothing excites me more than discovering a new artist, a piece of furniture with just the right patina, or incorporating a beautiful handblocked fabric into a scheme. Classic architecture is another faithful source of inspiration. And when all else fails, my dog-eared collection of design books haven’t let me down yet.”
