With every project she takes on, Tiffany LeBlanc works both sides of her brain. Logic and attention to detail happily coexist with intuition and creativity.

LeBlanc worked in financial research management for a decade prior to studying interior design at Boston Architectural College and launching her design career. She honed her open-minded world view as a child living with her mother, an artist, in remote parts of France and Italy.

Travel and art remain sources of inspiration for the founder and principal of LeBlanc Design. The designer took on her first project in 2005. “I had questionable confidence at that point,” she confesses. But it wasn’t long before LeBlanc developed confidence in spades. Based in Boston, she’s been designing noteworthy projects nationwide for twenty years.

LeBlanc’s body of work is diverse and distinctive. “I’ve worked on quite a few complicated projects, many of them rather curated and unusual,” she says. “I really like thoughtful, considered interiors. I prefer things that are real, not trendy. If you want the latest fad, don’t hire me,” she says with a laugh.

The designer says she thinks of her indispensable team of nine as “translators for our clients.” They know how to read a room. “Many clients are looking for a change, and it’s exciting to help them on that journey.”

What’s next? “More residential interiors, of course, and we’re looking at some hotel projects. Maybe a fabric line,” she says. The firm also recently opened a second location on Martha’s Vineyard. LeBlanc is flattered and excited to join the ranks of so many exceptional people in the New England Design Hall of Fame.

“You know, it’s kind of funny to win it individually,” she says, “when I know there’s absolutely no way I could execute any of it without my talented team.”
