Interior design maven Lindye Galloway is known for her thoughtful and elegant approach, serving as the chief creative officer of her full-service atelier, Lindye Galloway Studio, and co-founder of home retail boutique Le Maé by Lindye. Now adding “collaboration with RH” to her impressive list of achievements, the O.C. local tells of the all-new Alora collection and how she continues to take clients’ homes to the next level.
Tell us about your new Alora designs with RH.
The Alora series offers a striking array of furniture pieces crafted from American white oak. The designs feature sleek planes, radius curves, smooth waterfall edges and wire-brushed finishes, emphasizing continuous woodgrain and artisanal craftsmanship.
You also recently co-founded a retail shop, Le Maé by Lindye. What can shoppers expect to find here?
Shoppers will discover a curated collection of thoughtfully designed furniture and home accessories that bring timeless elegance and everyday comfort into their spaces. Born from a passion for historic craftsmanship and the charm of the European countryside, Le Maé offers a range of beautifully crafted seating, coffee tables, dressers, hutches and elevated home accessories.
Local design trends—what’s in?
Clients are gravitating toward organic textures, natural wood tones and soft, earthy palettes that create a relaxed yet refined atmosphere. There’s also a growing appreciation for bespoke, statement-making pieces—custom furniture, unique lighting or artisanal decor—that add personality and depth to a space.
What’s next?
I’m always exploring new opportunities and collaborations that align with my passion for design and craftsmanship. While I can’t share details just yet, there are some exciting things in the works that I can’t wait to reveal soon!
