Gabrielle Santiago Wright’s career as an interior designer is marked by a blend of creativity, craftsmanship, and a strong understanding of how environments influence daily life. Her journey began in the warmth of her family's Pennsylvania farmhouse, where her father, a custom home builder, introduced her to the world of construction and design. This early exposure to transforming spaces laid the foundation for her career.
After honing her skills at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising, Gabrielle’s career took off when she began designing wallpapers and textiles for well-known brands like Target and Joann Fabrics. These formative experiences helped shape her design aesthetic and set her on a path to becoming a recognized designer.
In 2015, Gabrielle took a bold step and founded her own interior design studio, marking the beginning of her independent career. Since then, she has become known for her ability to combine visual appeal with purposeful design. Gabrielle also holds a certification as a Feng Shui Practitioner from NYU, which she incorporates into her work to create spaces that are not only beautiful but also balanced and mindful.
Her designs are both visually striking and thoughtfully crafted, integrating elements of psychology and energy principles to create spaces that enhance well-being. This distinctive approach has made Gabrielle a sought-after designer, with her work featured in top publications such as Architectural Digest, HGTV's House Hunter Renovations, People Magazine, Domino Magazine, Martha Stewart Magazine, Better Home & Gardens and many others. Her portfolio spans residential interiors and product development, showcasing her versatility and commitment to authenticity.
In 2024, Gabrielle was honored to be named Martha Stewart's Interior Design Expert for The Martha Collective, a prestigious recognition that further solidified her reputation as a leading figure in the design world.
