Allison Paladino

Fun-spirited nature lover Allison Paladino is one of today's most impressive interior designers. With the fall of the economy in 2008, Paladino turned her full attention to her interior design work and found solace in time spent sketching and developing a furniture collection with EJ Victor. The creativity just kept coming, her travels to Europe and rich encounters with striking animals have led her to her most well-known style: classic transitional with an exotic twist that blends multicultural artwork with a comfortable feel. Her love for French Art Deco has been a key inspiration to the commercial and residential spaces she has designed, as well. "I archive anything and everything I discover in my travels and draw inspiration from this veritable treasure trove of memories," says Paladino.

Recently, and in coordination with Fine Art Lamps, Paladino has created innovative light fixtures that feature hidden, dimmable LEDs and dichroic, rough cut glass. She has also released a photo series that features her world travels. It's easy to see her knack for creativity, and her expanding collections are always welcome. The commitment she has to her work and to her clients ensures an enjoyable experience for both parties; she has a terrific eye for color, graphics, and overall design that supersedes just making a space look beautiful.
