About
Caroline Ainsley, interior designer on Montreal's North Shore
I'm Caroline Ainsley, founder of Ainsley Design & Concept and an interior designer since 2010. What I love most about my work is discovering a space's potential and imagining how it could better reflect who you are. To me, a successful interior is a place where you feel good, one that makes everyday life easier and that you truly enjoy living in. An avid traveller, I love discovering new ways of inhabiting a space. A small hotel, a restaurant, a street or a landscape can inspire a pairing of textures, a mood or a detail to reinterpret in a project. These discoveries fuel my creativity, as do the trends I follow with interest. I love adapting my inspirations to your reality, your tastes and your home. Every project is different, and it's precisely this variety that still excites me after all these years.
