About Lisa Mende Design
Project locations spanning multiple states point to a practice built on longer-distance relationships, with sourcing and curation as a visible part of the process.
Interiors combine antique and vintage furniture with modern classics and original art, producing a layered, collected look rather than a matched showroom feel.
Rooms in this portfolio tend to combine antique or vintage furniture with newer classic pieces and original artwork, creating a layered, gathered-over-years quality rather than a uniform, single-era look.
The geographic spread of past projects suggests a practice comfortable working beyond a single city, with sourcing and curation treated as core parts of the service rather than an afterthought to furnishing.
This style tends to suit homeowners who already appreciate antiques or one-of-a-kind finds and want a designer to help weave those pieces into a cohesive, art-forward home rather than starting from an all-new furniture plan.
