Recent Project

The Lake Burton Vista Project was a full-home renovation and furnishing project that transformed a mountain retreat overlooking Lake Burton into a warm, elevated, and highly functional getaway. Inspired by the surrounding natural beauty, the design blends modern updates with timeless materials, layered textures, and custom details to create a refined yet comfortable atmosphere. Every space was thoughtfully designed to maximize views, encourage connection, and embody the balance of beauty, comfort, and function.

Intentional interiors for modern mountain, lake and timeless living

The Laurel Design studio is a boutique interior design studio rooted in the mountain and lake lifestyle of Highlands, North Carolina and Lake Burton, Georgia. We create refined, livable spaces that feel effortless and elevated—homes shaped by nature, light, and thoughtful detail.

Our work is guided by a deep appreciation for natural materials, timeless design, and the quiet beauty of well-balanced spaces. We believe a home should feel personal and grounded, while still carrying a sense of understated luxury.

Each project is approached with intention, whether it’s a seasonal retreat or a full-time residence our goal is to create interiors that feel deeply connected to their surroundings into the people who live in them.
