Lauren has written three best-selling design books and has forayed into product design including furniture, tile, kitchen cabinetry, and textiles.

Client Experience
"I have been a fan of Lauren Liess since the beginning of her blog. It thrilled us to book time with her on The Expert. I have all three of her books, but we were able to cover so much ground over our Zoom session because we could send her our questions/photos beforehand. We feel that our call paid for itself just in the guidance, recommendations and all the other information she shared with us. I am limited by word count, but I encourage you to use this service. She is a true expert."
