NYSID alumnae, Laurie Smith, joins us for an intimate conversation and look into her journey as an interior designer.
As one of the first designers to hit the airwaves on TLC’s Emmy nominated show Trading Spaces in 2000, Laurie has been able to expand her style and knowledge of design through various product lines, speaking opportunities and as an author.
Laurie and the original cast of Trading Spaces returned after 10 years to TLC Spring of 2018 with the series reboot airing an anticipated second season this spring!
Laurie is beyond excited to share her personal renovation story of a contemporary home, examples from her book, Discovering Home, and answer questions about the beloved series Trading Spaces with students and alumni of her alma mater.
