“The spaces we live in shape our lives” – this is one of the powerful ideas driving Lisa Sherry’s distinctive design work. When it comes to home and design experts, Lisa, owner and principal designer of Lisa Sherry Interieurs, is always a standout creative due to her keen eye, vibrant approach, and effortless style.
What is inspiring you right now?
I’m completely captivated by the way classic and modern design flirt with each other. Classic design adds warmth and soul to modern minimalism, while modern keeps classic from feeling too precious. It’s a push and pull, give and take, and when it’s just right, it feels effortless.

I’ve also noticed you do moody-glam really, really well. Is that something you see yourself using across more of your projects?
You have a keen eye. I will always love light, airy spaces – so fresh and effortless. But lately, I’ve been embracing moodier moments too. A little more depth, a little more drama, but always with the same focus on texture, contrast, and warmth. So often, great design is not about choosing one style over another. It’s about balance, about what feels right for my clients and the space.
Have there been any projects at Lisa Sherry Interieurs in the last several months that you’re particularly excited about?
Every Lisa Sherry Interieurs project feels like a new adventure. I love that my work takes me to inspiring places – some close and some far away. Right now, we have an 8,000-square-foot home at Lake Norman underway and – 1,500 miles away – a stunning modern masterpiece in Puerto Vallarta. After many years as an interior designer, I can honestly say my creative energy has never been stronger.
Is there anything you’re seeing in home and design that you’re loving?
I love seeing more awareness around the connection between home and well-being. Some call it a trend, but to me, it’s fundamental and always has been – our homes shape how we live and feel every day. It’s the essence of “live beautiful,” my personal and professional mantra.
