Lily Cooper has a unique background and broad set of skills that she brings to all Lily + Luxe projects. She has honed her signature style and skills over the past decade, on a wide range of residential and commercial projects. 

“I was fortunate to have a mentor who helped expose me to the highest quality antiques, handmade rugs, and art. With her, I traveled to attend and learn from some of the best design shows and auction houses in the world”. 

Lily continued learning from experts in the field, working in high-end European kitchen and bath design as well as furniture importing. 

Using this unique furnishings knowledge Lily pays special attention to materials and products used in her projects ensuring that quality, sustainability and craftsmanship are paramount. Centered in the furniture capital of the world, North Carolina, Lily is proud to have so many exceptional craftsmen close at hand. 

Using an artist’s eye she constructs her clients projects from the ground up, keenly including the architecture of the space into layering finishes, textures, carefully sourced furnishings. 

“My goal is to create arrestingly beautiful spaces, which stand the test of time”. 

My goal is to create arrestingly beautiful spaces that bring together all my client’s desires into a finished room that they could have only dreamed of.
