Our story

A studio built around how you actually live at home.

Shannon O'Leary Interiors started with a simple idea: good design should make a home easier to live in, not just nicer to look at. We spend as much time asking questions as we do picking finishes.

Meet the designer

Shannon

Shannon's love for design was evident as a young girl, constantly rearranging and decorating her room. As each school year began, it was a time she took to reinvent her space. She went on to receive a double Bachelor of Arts degree in Fine Art and Graphic Design.

She worked for a large NE-based furniture retailer for seven years, managing their online content, social media, and writing their design blog. This is where her interest in interiors really flourished, and she grew her career path further with a certificate in Interior Design. She then spent two years at Salt Bay Studios, learning interior design skills hands-on. She also spent years as a fine art paint instructor.

Shannon's personal style blends muted palettes with bold contrasting moments, all inspired by the colors and textures found in nature. She loves to explore different textiles and patterns to create comfortable, lived-in spaces.

As a busy mom of three little ones, her time in the SB studio is a treat! Shannon loves to spend free time scouring antique stores for a rare find and embarking on DIY renovations alongside her husband.

How we work

We listen first

Design decisions start with how you live day to day, not a trend board.

We stay hands-on

One designer sees your project through — sourcing, ordering, and the install day itself.

We respect your budget

We're upfront about costs early, so there are no surprises when the invoices arrive.
