Unique interests and pieces inspire young designer’s creations
As principal and creative director of Lauren Levant Interior, Lauren Levant is carving an impressive path early in her career. A native of Connecticut, Levant honed her design craft in the demanding markets of Connecticut, New York and Washington DC before settling in the Pittsburgh, PA area.
The young designer has received numerous international design awards, and been honored as Viking Appliance’s National Designer of the Year. HGTV also named her one of the top 10 American designers under 35. The firm’s work has been featured in numerous publications and design books.
“Inspiration comes from the strangest places and, as a result, my portfolio is very eclectic,” notes the designer. “As I develop my designs, I use the unique personalities and life experiences of my clients. I try to challenge myself to dig in until I find something to work with, and I think editors and judging panels have been excited to see details that are out of the ordinary.”
As a Women in Business honoree, Levant collaborates with local craftspersons, fabricators and artisans in her design of interior spaces. “Through their talented hands, we designers can create something truly unique for our clients,” she offers. “The process of bringing this piece to life together connects everyone involved in a soulful, profound way. Clients find the process unforgettable and exciting.”
