Lauren Nelson is an interior designer and based in San Francisco. She believes that when our surroundings are sources of comfort and inspiration, we lead happier lives. Lauren’s signature style layers old with new, bold with subtle, and raw with refined so that her spaces feel fresh, yet still timeless. She pays special attention to the use of natural light, texture, and scale when designing homes or styling a shoot. When not decorating homes or on a shoot, Lauren is happily experimenting in the kitchen, at the beach with her dog Henry, or planning a trip with her husband Gabe. She is thankful to do what she loves and thinks laughter is the soul’s greatest medicine.
