Columbus, OH Luxury Interior Designer
Luxury Interior Design in Columbus & Central Ohio
Columbus is no longer a city that looks elsewhere for design inspiration — it sets its own standard. From New Albany’s estate communities to the century homes of Upper Arlington and the new construction rising across Powell and Dublin, the residences of Greater Columbus deserve interiors that match their ambition. Laura Yeager Smith Home & Design is Central Ohio’s award-winning design studio, delivering personalized, high-end interiors built to last.
Design That Begins With Who You Are
Columbus has earned a well-deserved reputation as one of the Midwest’s fastest-growing, most culturally dynamic cities. Its residential architecture reflects that energy — from the craftsman bungalows of Bexley to the sweeping new construction estates of New Albany, from the historic character of Grandview Heights to the planned communities of Powell and Dublin. Every neighborhood in Greater Columbus carries its own identity, and every home within it deserves an interior that is equally considered.
Laura Yeager Smith Home & Design approaches each Columbus project as a study in the individual. Our work begins not with a predetermined style or trend, but with a genuine understanding of how you live — what your home needs to do for your family, what it needs to feel like when you walk through the door, and what it should say about who you are. The result is always an interior that is authentically yours.
“I enjoy extracting the essence of who our clients are to create authentic, enduring spaces that are both functional and personal. A home is both a refuge and an expression of self.”

Rooted in Hudson, Ohio and serving Greater Columbus with a full team of 15 design and project management professionals, LYSHD brings the resources, relationships, and rigor of a recognized national studio to Central Ohio’s most distinguished homes — with the accessibility and local knowledge of a neighbor.
Columbus Communities We Serve
Greater Columbus encompasses some of Ohio’s most architecturally diverse and vibrant residential communities. LYSHD designs across all of them, honoring the character of each neighborhood while delivering interiors that are timeless, personal, and precisely executed.
New Albany
New Albany is home to some of Central Ohio’s most significant residential architecture — master-planned estate communities, custom-built homes on generous lots, and a community aesthetic defined by architectural standards and natural landscaping. Homes here are built with intention, and their interiors should reflect the same. LYSHD brings full-service design expertise to New Albany estates — from initial space planning through final installation — delivering interiors that honor the architecture and the people who live in them.

Dublin
Dublin’s blend of established neighborhoods, executive communities, and newer construction reflects the breadth of the Columbus market.

Upper Arlington
Upper Arlington is one of Columbus’s most storied residential communities — Tudor revivals, colonials, and ranches built with the craftsmanship of another era, many of them now in thoughtful hands ready for a new chapter. Renovating in Upper Arlington requires a designer who understands architectural heritage and knows how to honor it while making a home genuinely livable for contemporary life. LYSHD brings both the sensitivity and the technical depth this work demands.

Bexley, Grandview Heights & Victorian Village
These inner-ring Columbus neighborhoods attract homeowners who love character, craft, and the irreplaceable scale of early-twentieth-century residential architecture. Bungalows, colonials, and Victorians with original millwork and plaster walls — homes that reward care and resist trends. LYSHD works within these architectural contexts with respect for what’s there and a clear eye for what the home can become.
Design Focus in Bexley, Grandview & Victorian Village
- Renovation design that preserves and enhances original architectural details
- Thoughtful material selections suited to the scale of older homes
- Furnishings curation that layers warmth and character into existing spaces
- Selective updates rather than wholesale transformation — where appropriate
Powell & Westerville
North of Columbus, Powell and Westerville have emerged as some of Central Ohio’s most desirable addresses for growing families and established professionals — new construction communities, executive neighborhoods, and planned developments where design quality is a differentiating factor.
