Lara Taylor is the founder and principal designer of LTID Studio, bringing 25 years of experience in interior design and a deep connection to the Bay Area. Born and raised in Oakland, she spent much of her career in San Francisco before expanding her work to Seattle and Big Sky, MT, with projects across the U.S. In 2019, she returned to the Bay Area to launch LTID Studio, a firm dedicated to creating bespoke interiors that reflect each client’s needs while incorporating her thoughtful perspective. Lara’s expertise spans new construction, renovations, and home furnishing projects, offering a comprehensive understanding of design and construction. She is drawn to interiors that defy categorization—where materials, finishes, and furnishings feel intentional but not overly recognizable, creating spaces that are distinctive and thoughtfully curated.

I only have a few questions. Is a consultation call right for me?
Absolutely. Whether you're seeking fast-acting advice or diving into a full transformation, our community of designers is flexible when it comes to project size and scope. No question is too small, and no vision is too grand.
How can I prep for my consultation call?
Gather your design ideas and all forms of inspiration (think: sketches, photos, color swatches and images from your chosen designer’s portfolio). The more prepared you are for your consultation, the more personalized and productive your consultation call will be. You are welcome to have family members and architects present to optimize your time.
How long are the consultation calls?
You have two options — 30 minutes and 60 minutes. The half-hour call is great for quick questions and decision making, like choosing paint colors or reviewing some of your selections before pulling the trigger. The hour-long call is ideal if you are seeking thorough guidance. If you’re not sure which consult length is right for you, we’ve provided a thorough outline here.
I'm ready to revamp my entire home. Consultation call or full-service booking?
You're in control. Submit a full-service inquiry for a traditional interior design experience where you have a professional taking a hands-on approach from start to finish. Consultations are ideal if you plan to fully coordinate your project but need help with plans and selections. Read more on which solution is right for you in this article.
