Lindsay Lucas has spent a lifetime discovering the true meaning of “home.” As the founder and principal designer of Lindsay Laine Interiors, she brings a unique blend of artistry, intuition, and technical expertise to luxury interior design.
Born and raised in Pittsford, NY, Lindsay’s entrepreneurial spirit was evident from an early age. After the birth of her two sons, she and her mother, Lainey launched Lindsay Laine, a beloved home decor and housewares boutique. The store was known for its curated selections and timeless pieces. While she flourished in every aspect of retail, from buying and merchandising to fostering relationships with customers, Lindsay eventually felt the pull toward something new.
In 2008, she stepped away from retail to focus exclusively on raising her children. A few years later, an unexpected pivot led her into the IT managed services industry, where she embraced the challenge of learning an entirely new field. Though it may have seemed like a detour, Lindsay trusted the process, gaining invaluable problem-solving and project management skills along the way.
Her passion for design never faded. What began as personal projects, first her own home, then for family and friends, evolved into a full-fledged career. After completing an extensive renovation of her 1940s Tudor, it became clear that her eye for interiors was more than just a creative outlet...it was her calling. While still working in technology, she began taking on design projects on the side. In 2021, she made the leap and Lindsay Laine Interiors was born.
