At Jessica Stambaugh‘s namesake firm, this LUXE Next In Design 99 honoree composes her signature “artistic meets classic” style with unexpected elements. When it comes to sourcing unique fabrics, Stambaugh is drawn to The Lot Showroom, a beloved Music City hotspot for boutique textile labels.
“It’s a wonderful local resource for pretty, printed fabrics and wallcoverings. The owner, Brittney Forrister, provides such friendly, welcoming and timely service—always with a very personal touch.”

To Meg Kelly, Luxe Next In Design 99 pro and founder of Clella Design, the city is teeming with eateries that ignite creativity and festivity.
“I love Lou and Folk in East Nashville—they each have a great distinct atmosphere, plus the most delicious cuisine. While Lou feels cozy in an old home featuring House of Hackney wallpaper, Folk boasts high ceilings and an eye-catching commissioned Alex Lockwood piece. You can pop around town to different spots all night, which is always fun!”

A Luxe Next In Design 99 talent known for breathing new life into traditional aesthetics, Becky Nielsen Filipski finds her perfect match in Nashville boutique hotel Noelle for an inspiring stay.
“It has old-school charm but with modern comforts. The basement speakeasy bar is so fun for late nights. You can also enjoy the lovely gift shop, café, rooftop patio and nightly champagne in the lobby. Centrally located downtown, it offers the perfect mix of old and new.”
