I’m excited to be kicking off this week with my interview with designer and founder of Leah Singh Inc. I have been a huge fan of Leah’s work for years. When you design with her pieces they instantly make a statement in any room, and as we move into the fall and winter months I think we need to look for home decor pieces that energize us and make us feel happy to be home. I feel like Leah’s home decor collection can do the trick!

Leah Singh features a collection of handcrafted textiles that mix traditional Indian craft techniques with unexpected color combinations, and modern, geometric forms. Designer and founder Leah Singh works directly with artisans in villages across India using embroidery, weaving, and printing techniques that are native to the region. Her philosophy is to rejuvenate these age-old, traditional crafts by transforming them into modern objects.

Leah grew up in India surrounded by it's rich cultural heritage, and then moved to New York to study Industrial Design at the Parsons School of Design, where she was  surrounded by the structured, minimal lines of Western architecture. Her eclectic upbringing is reflected in each piece she designs.

She now travels between her two homes in New York and Delhi, collecting inspiration for new collections.

In our interview, I selected five design trends from Elle Decor’s List of Design Trends that are IN and OUT for 2020 written by Lucia Tonelli and Kelley Carter. I designed a mood board based on our conversation of trends that Leah loves, and also imagery of where Leah finds her inspiration to design this home decor collection.
