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.
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.
Now proudly carried by Chaddock, Allison’s furniture collection was previously showcased at High Point Furniture Market with EJ Victor, offering an elegant presentation of refined craftsmanship, architectural detail, and timeless design. The collection reflects Allison’s signature philosophy of traditional forms layered with subtle, unexpected elements.
Rooted in proportion, materiality, and disciplined detailing, each design speaks to a commitment to enduring style rather than trend. Architectural lines are softened through tactile materials, carefully considered scale, and nuanced finishes that elevate the overall composition. The result is furniture that feels tailored yet approachable, sophisticated yet entirely livable.
Throughout the collection, craftsmanship and comfort remain paramount. Each piece balances beauty with function, ensuring the designs are as inviting as they are visually compelling.
While the video opens in the EJ Victor showroom at High Point Furniture Market, the collection is now exclusively carried by Chaddock. This continued evolution reflects a shared dedication to quality, heritage craftsmanship, and thoughtful design that defines the Allison Paladino collection today.
Step into the world of refined residential design in South Florida with Allison Paladino, a distinguished Palm Beach interior designer and founder of Paladino Rudd Interior Design. Based in Palm Beach Gardens, Allison reflects on her early immersion in the design industry, her studies at Mount Vernon College in Washington, D.C., her formative experience working with acclaimed designer Tom Pheasant, and the establishment of her firm in 1997.
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.
Through a thoughtful and highly collaborative approach, Paladino Rudd Interior Design creates tailored homes for clients in Palm Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, Boca Raton, and throughout South Florida. Each project reflects a commitment to enduring design, architectural integrity, and a refined sense of livable luxury.
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.
With the start of fall we've reflected on some of our favorite summer highlights! We must say, hands down it was setting sail in Alaska with Anne and David Sutherland of Perennials and Sutherland, two long-time leaders in luxury interior design materials. After decades of a wonderful partnership, they generously invited us to explore The Last Frontier aboard their beautiful Westport 130 Yacht. It's always the best when colleagues become companions, and we were just that when exploring this destination. We couldn't have had better hosts to take us on this chilly yet eye-opening adventure.
This was our first time in Alaska, and there was plenty to see. From whales, seals, and tortoises to icebergs with all shades of blue. Shocked by the natural world, this flipped our perspective and got us looking into a whole new coastal interior design inspiration. We loved fishing, playing cards, and enjoyed many laughs. Although it was a close call, we concluded that Allison is definitely the best at fishing. We even learned some new facts! Alaska is the largest rainforest in the nation—who knew?
Anne and David have been our friends for quite some time, and it has been a joy to get to know them and their team for many years. There is so much mutual respect, and it has only grown. Ever since our return from sea, we've been diving into new interior design projects and couldn’t help ourselves from placing an order on “Homespun,” a Perennials performance fabric we can't get enough of!
I recently kicked off summer in the best possible way – alongside colleagues who have become my great friends. On June 9, Florida Design and the Inside Out showroom hosted me for a presentation to discuss the “Ins & Outs of Developing a Product Line.” I love developing luxury interior design products, so it was pure fun to share my tips, tricks, and slight mishaps along the way – it is all part of the journey!
Founder of Inside Out, Joy Eber, and Florida Design magazine have both been a part of my own journey. I’ve known Joy for nearly 25 years. She has always been very supportive of my interior design career, and we have a special connection that I value. When I released my first furniture and lighting collection with Century Furniture in Chicago, she congratulated me and sent me flowers to the show. She is a star, and she surrounds herself with a team that matches her enthusiasm and can-do attitude.
Florida Design magazine has celebrated key moments and milestones with us. When Zita Rudd was promoted to partner, who better to sponsor the event? That was where we had the pleasure of meeting Florida Design’s editor-in-chief, Luis Rigual, who introduced me to the Inside Out design community. Just like creating a collection, it all comes full circle!
Thank you to everyone who joined us, to Inside Out showroom, to Florida Design magazine, and of course – to my wonderful product collaborators in interior design: Perennials,Fine Art, EJ Victor, and Century!

The great news just keeps coming! My newest Allison Paladino Collection for E.J. Victor gallery has opened in Coral Gables, Florida at Décor House Furniture during the gala opening of Décor House’s new design center and showroom last month.
The South Florida interior design social schedule is always a whirlwind of excitement during December, but this was a party to remember! Co-sponsored by Décor House Furniture and Ferguson Bath, Kitchen and Lighting Gallery, it rained like cats and dogs the night of the opening, but the weather did nothing to dampen the spirits of the more than 500 special guests who enjoyed the sneak peek at the new space, great music, and champagne. It was a wonderful opportunity for me to catch up with many of my good friends in the design community and get personal feedback on my furniture designs.
Owner Pepe Rodriguez is rightfully proud of the new space and was just as excited about the turnout for the event. Plus, he said he expects my soft modern furniture designs to really resonate with Décor House’s design-conscious customers.
I’m honored by his confidence and thrilled to have a new venue for everyone to see my work, particularly in such a fabulous store. Whether you’re in the business or just love great South Florida interior design, Décor House is well worth a visit. Find it at 4119 Ponce de Leon Blvd., Coral Gables, FL 33146, 305-448-6200.

Allison and the banner outside of Fine Art Lamps! A very exciting time!
Here is Allison showing the watch battery size dim-able LED bulb. “It was fun showing it to customers to see if they could figure out what it was!!! It is hard to believe that this tiny little bit can illuminate the glass hand cut dichroic glass so beautifully and at the same time be practical to light a space! Because LED’s are fairly new in such a decorative fixtures it really is ground breaking!”
Allison’s new lighting fixture was inspired by her love for jewelry and exotic materials like rock crystal and quartz and the Art Deco period!
In addition to her new line with Fine Art Lamps, Allison continued to wow the crowds with a stunning new showcase in the EJ Victor Showroom.
All of us here at EJ Victor could not be happier to welcome such a creative talent, Kelly Wearstler to the family!
Market in High Point, NC, is always an exciting time of year, but this Fall we had plenty of reasons to celebrate! Many new furniture introductions were launched, including the David dining armchair featuring fabulous ribbed chrome details on the back where the arm wraps around the chair, on the arm itself, and a polished chrome ferrule on the foot! Also introduced was the JJ console in chrome, a walnut shelf with drawers, and glass, just to name a few.
Allison and her staff also celebrated with EJ Victor in honor of their 25th anniversary, along with the introduction of the Kate Spade Collection sponsored by the Hearst Group, Saturday, October 17th.
Another successful season with Fine Art Lamps is in the books as well! This High Point Market, Allison Paladino, a leading Palm Beach Gardens interior designer, introduced eight new lighting pieces to her line.
The artisans of Fine Art Lamps did such a fabulous job of achieving her vision! They truly captured the impeccable craftsmanship through the beautiful antique silver, gold, and bronze frames, as well as the organic feel of the cut glass that looks like natural quartz.
Fine Art Lamps also celebrated the evening with a party in honor of their 75th Anniversary!
Both Allison and her colleague Libby Langdon viewed for the first time the Fine Art Lamps showroom in High Point, NC, with the reception area now lined with all of Allison’s lighting collection!
“It was very exciting to see that my lighting collection was lining the hall and reception area of Fine Art Lamps! We also placed in the reception area some furniture pieces from my collection with EJ Victor. Around the corner walks my pal Libby, whom I did get a fist pump of approval from! Thanks, Libby!” says a very excited and grateful Paladino!
