Diane Breckenridge Interiors
Diane Breckenridge Barrett founded Diane Breckenridge Interiors in the mid-1980s. She has paved the way for women-owned businesses, starting her own company at a time when so few were owned and run by women. Diane has a passion for creating warm and inviting spaces that reflect a homeowner’s style and personality. She says a project is complete when it is a timeless haven for the homeowner…comfortable, durable and beautiful. With over 35 years of experience in the business, Diane has led many designers to begin their careers under her tutelage.
A faceted mirror from Brody’s and two sparking glass obelisks shine above a simple wood chest with clean, contemporary lines. “The entry gives you an idea of what you’re in for,” says Colleen Ertl, Vice President of Design at Diane Breckenridge Interiors. She’s referring to a transitional interior distinguished by its elegance, simplicity and brazen nod to the past, too.
Driving up a long, wooded path, glimpses of a serene lake peek through the trees. Situated above the lake, a winsome wood lodge with an expansive outdoor patio draws you farther through the woods. At the end of the path, the lodge greets you with lush landscaping and solid wood double doors with black rivet detailing and custom black iron handles. Taking your first steps into Ray and Diane Barrett’s lodge, you are overcome with a feeling of warmth and welcome, plus a killer view.
