Alice Black

Since founding Alice Black Interiors in 2003, Alice has built a studio known for thoughtful, client-centered interiors that feel personal, collected, and enduring. Her work strikes a balance between creativity and restraint, resulting in homes that are both memorable and timeless, without feeling trend-driven.

Alice studied interior design at Mount Vernon College of George Washington University in Washington, DC, and continued her training at the New York School of Interior Design. She then spent more than a decade refining her craft at the most respected firms in the field, including David Easton, Thomas Jayne Studio, and Ferguson Shamamian Architects, all of which were featured in Architectural Digest’s top 100. That experience shaped her rigorous standards, her respect for architecture, and her ability to guide complex residential projects with calm authority.

Raised in a home shaped by modern art and architecture, Alice developed an early understanding of proportion, clean lines, and the role of art in daily life. Her professional formation with distinguished New York traditionalists deepened her appreciation for antiques, classical detailing, and the quiet power of well-considered rooms. The result is an approach that lets art lead, honors the character of the architecture, and layers tailored furnishings with vintage and antique pieces, custom elements, and carefully chosen finishes.

Alice approaches each commission with close listening and a clear, thoughtful process, translating a client’s taste into a cohesive environment that supports how they live. The studio’s work spans renovations, new builds, and furnishing projects, with a full-service approach that encompasses space planning, interior architectural drawings, custom furniture and millwork, lighting and finish selections, procurement, and installation coordination. Based in Connecticut, Alice Black Interiors serves clients in New York and beyond, with projects across the United States—from Westport and Greenwich to destinations such as Montana, spanning city apartments, townhouses, country homes, and ski retreats.
