What 30 Years in Interior Design Taught Me

Posted on by Nicole Tierney

I want to begin by saying how grateful I am to Thais Roda, the team at Liaigre Miami, and everyone who joined us for such a beautifully hosted and thoughtful private evening.

This presentation was intentionally different for me. Interior design has been my life’s work for more than thirty years, but that night was not really about the projects. It was about the people behind the work. I wanted to speak honestly about wellness, balance, leadership, and what it means to take care of ourselves in a profession that is incredibly rewarding, yet incredibly demanding.

I shared personal experiences and lessons that have shaped how I design, how I lead, and how I live today. I also walked guests through my journey as a product designer, from furniture and lighting to outdoor collections, and my rug and pillow collaboration with Perennials. It is a partnership I deeply believe in for its innovation, durability, and beauty. Seeing those pieces displayed inside the Liaigre Miami showroom made the evening even more meaningful.

More than anything, the night was about honoring designers, creatives, and business owners. It was about acknowledging the energy we give every single day and reminding ourselves that caring for our well-being is essential.

Thank you to everyone who came, listened, and shared in the conversation. I truly hope you left feeling supported, encouraged, and reminded of how important you are.

Florida Design: How Interior Design Is Evolving After the Pandemic

Posted on by Nicole Tierney

In this first episode of FD Conversations with Florida Design, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Editorial Director Daffhne Nicolopoulos to talk about how interior design is evolving in a rapidly changing world.

As highlighted by Florida Design, recent global changes have influenced not only our industry but also the way we live, work, and experience our surroundings. We discussed how design firms have adapted in meaningful ways, from implementing new safety protocols to embracing virtual presentations and Zoom consultations. These adjustments have reshaped the creative process and strengthened collaboration, allowing designers and clients to remain connected while navigating new realities.

What I continue to see firsthand is a clear and intentional shift in what clients value most. There is a growing desire for homes that feel grounded, livable, and emotionally supportive. Beauty alone is no longer enough. Spaces must function effortlessly, offer comfort, and provide a sense of calm. As our conversation for Florida Design emphasized, design today carries a deeper responsibility. The home has become a place of restoration, connection, and reflection in ways that feel more significant than ever before.

Thoughtful design has always mattered, but its impact is now more personal and more immediate. When architecture, materials, and proportion are considered with care, the result is not simply a beautiful space, but an environment that truly enhances daily life.

A Conversation with Allison Paladino | Century Furniture Wednesdays at 1

Posted on by Nicole Tierney

I was honored to join my longtime friend John Welker for an episode of Century Furniture’s Wednesdays at 1. It was a thoughtful and reflective conversation centered on growth, leadership, and the evolution of creative work.

We spoke about the journey from my early education to founding my firm in 1997, and how navigating industry shifts has shaped both my perspective and my practice. Building a firm that evolves alongside your life requires clarity, adaptability, and a willingness to refine your approach over time.

Our discussion also touched on sustaining creativity and leadership within the broader world of luxury furniture design and high-end residential work. Maintaining standards while building strong systems, delegating with intention, and trusting the people around you are all essential to long-term success. Leadership, I have learned, is less about control and more about structure, vision, and consistency.

We briefly explored how my product collaborations grew organically from my interior practice. Each opportunity has been rooted in curiosity and a desire to create pieces that feel enduring, functional, and thoughtfully considered.

More than anything, the conversation was a reminder that creativity matures, priorities shift, and success takes many forms at different stages of life. I am grateful to Century Furniture for creating a platform for meaningful dialogue and for continuing to support conversations within our industry.

Inside the Palm Beach Hampton with Allison Paladino

Posted on by Nicole Senecal

Step inside the Palm Beach Hampton, a 52,000-square-foot luxury condominium community in Palm Beach, Florida, where we led the transformation of the building’s shared interiors.

From the dual lobbies and guest vestibules to the penthouse levels and gathering spaces throughout the property, each area was carefully reimagined to reflect both the scale of the architecture and the needs of the residents. Our approach focused on proportion, materiality, and thoughtful detailing to ensure every element felt intentional.

Because these spaces serve as an extension of home, it was important that the Palm Beach Hampton felt refined yet welcoming. Each piece was thoughtfully scaled and curated to complement the building’s grand presence while introducing warmth, comfort, and livability. The result is a cohesive environment that balances elegance with ease, creating shared spaces that feel both elevated and deeply personal to those who live there.

Allison Paladino Lighting Collection: Fine Art Handcrafted Lighting

Posted on by Nicole Senecal

The Allison Paladino lighting collection brings together sculptural elegance and advanced LED technology. Each fixture features signature rough-cut dichroic glass, developed in collaboration with Fine Art master glass artist Frank Englesby. Integrated, high-efficiency LEDs are concealed within the design, illuminating the glass from within and revealing a dynamic, dual-toned brilliance.

Dichroic glass was originally developed by NASA for aerospace applications and is created through an intricate process that layers vaporized metallic oxides onto the surface of the glass. These layers are thinner than a human hair and require extraordinary precision. The result is a prismatic, jewel-like finish that captures and refracts light in ever-changing ways.

As light moves across the surface, color and dimension shift subtly, giving each fixture its own unique presence. The Allison Paladino lighting collection reflects a balance of artistry and innovation, where material science and design come together to create lighting that feels both technically advanced and visually striking.

This feature offers a closer look at her philosophy and process as a Palm Beach interior designer, where interior architecture and interiors are conceived together from the outset. From large-scale renovations to new construction, her work is guided by proportion, materiality, and a disciplined attention to detail that results in residences that feel both timeless and deeply personal.

Allison Paladino Lighting Collection: French Art Deco & Jewelry-Inspired Design

Posted on by Nicole Senecal

Join us at the Fine Art Handcrafted Lighting showroom in High Point, North Carolina, for a closer look at the Allison Paladino lighting collection.

Rooted in the elegance of French Art Deco and informed by the precision of fine jewelry design, the collection explores geometry, proportion, and the sculptural interplay of light and form. Each piece reflects a disciplined approach to balance and craftsmanship.

The Tennis Bracelet chandelier, Bangle pendant, and Diamond Stud wall sconce draw direct inspiration from timeless jewelry silhouettes, translating their clarity and refinement into architectural lighting. The result is a series of fixtures that feel both classic and contemporary, designed to elevate a space through subtle detail and thoughtful construction.

Sitting down with BUILD Magazine was another highlight. Sharing our story and vision with such an esteemed publication was an honor. You can watch the video below or by clicking here. We were thrilled to be part of exclusive interior design showrooms that spotlighted our work, along with others in the industry. Additionally, we had the opportunity to attend the Kips Bay President's Dinner, which added a touch of glamour and camaraderie to the year.

Along with these events and trips, we started a new modern interior design project in Southport, NC. We are super excited about this and we also finished a beautiful second home design project for our client in Asheville, NC, as well.
