A Chat With A Naples-Based Creative Renowned For Her Authentic Style

For 30 years, Judith Liegeois has shaped Naples’ design scene with interiors that defy fleeting trends yet still feel current. With locations on Ninth Street South and Third Street South, the designer crafts spaces that blend statement pieces with a natural, lived-in sensibility. Here, Liegeois details her staying power.

As a Naples mainstay, what keeps patrons returning?

I’m a collector at heart and have always loved the thrill of discovering new sources and uncovering one-of-a-kind pieces. Clients never know what they’ll find, and that’s part of the magic of the showroom.

How do you personally adjust to the ever-changing design landscape?

Honestly, I don’t spend too much time chasing trends. I gravitate toward pieces that are timeless, layered and full of character; those are the kinds of elements that never go out of style. I find that clients respond to authenticity. If something is interesting and well-made, it will transcend trends.

What are some of your favorite finds in the shop?

I’m currently torn between the exquisite Onno candles—a Belgian brand that elevates home fragrance with sustainably crafted glass vessels—and the extraordinary organic work of my dear friend, New York artist Eduardo Garza.
