Maggie Foster is an interior designer whose work is rhythmic, whimsical, and imaginative. Inspired by historical styles of design, she plays with abstracted natural forms, recurring stylized motifs, and interactive color to create works which reflect the people who reside there. Following her 80/20 rule, Maggie sources and designs 80% vintage and 20% custom furnishings for her projects, creating unique and lived in spaces for her clients.
Over the years, she has worked as a researcher, ceramicist event planner, sommelier, and vintage curator. This eclectic background gives her a unique perspective in interior design, where her process is personal, comprehensive, and caring.
Maggie is currently an MFA candidate at the New York School of Interior Design.
