Principal Designer
Raised in Savannah, Leah Giroux Bailey knew from an early age that she wanted to be an interior designer. “When I was in fifth grade, we had a career day. I dressed up as what I thought an Interior Designer looked like, with big jewelry and cork boards with fabric. I thought designers wore big jewelry.”
After graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Interior Design from the Savannah College of Art and Design, Leah began working for local companies including Creative Stone and Garden State Tile. Through these experiences she learned the ins and outs of construction and practical application of design giving her the experience she needed to create her own business,
LGB Interiors, LLC.
For over two decades, Leah has worked as an interior designer for homes throughout Savannah and the Lowcountry. In addition to residences in the surrounding areas, she also works closely with clients on their second homes throughout the country.
Her style encompasses the timeless, classic lines of the Lowcountry with touches of European elegance, which you can see featured in national and local publications as well as on HGTV and other national programming. You’ll always find layers of textures, soft tones, and unique accessories in Leah’s projects.
​As 2020 businesses grew in the Lowcountry due to the unexpected global pandemic so did Leah's. She opened a boutique in July of 2020 in the heart of downtown Bluffton, South Carolina and a second location in Savannah, Georgia in 2023 and now online. The shops offer the community a glimpse of the creative vision that Leah lends to every project. She now shares with everyone her talent, rare finds, and refined collection of decor, apparel, and more. These offer inspiration and an opportunity to have a piece of Leah Bailey inspired design for yourself and your home.
