Leah Marie Clark, Principal

After earning her Bachelor of Science in Interior Design from San Francisco State University, Leah launched her career working with some of the most recognized design firms in the Bay Area, such as Douglas Durkin Design and Marea Clark Interiors. With nearly a decade of experience under her belt, she founded Leah Marie Interiors in 2023, driven by a passion for creating spaces that reflect each client’s unique lifestyle. Leah prides herself on being flexible and adaptive to projects of all sizes. Her signature style blends transitional-organic elements with modern finishes and vibrant pops of color. She believes every home should authentically represent her clients’ values, style, and culture— with a touch of LMI flair.

Leah's roots in rural New Hampshire, where she grew up surrounded by entrepreneurs and a creative family, have shaped her approach to design. She brings a bright energy and a light-hearted spirit to every project. Starting with custom drawings, Leah develops tailored design solutions that meet each client’s needs and aspirations. With over 200 vendor connections at her fingertips, she often says, "anything is possible." Her deep knowledge of design history, craftsmanship in furniture, and meticulous attention to detail make the design process seamless.

Outside of running her business, Leah enjoys creating ceramics, cooking and baking, and exploring the outdoors on hikes with her husband and blind husky-shepherd, Sunny.

Ashlyn Cangson, Designer

Ashlyn’s early exposure to design shaped her career. Growing up with a father in the industry, she developed a passion for interior design, which led her to study at San Francisco State University, where she earned her Bachelor of Science in Interior Design alongside Leah.

Her experience spans commercial and high-end residential projects across the Bay Area. Passionate about sustainable, functional design, she brings strong communication, technical and problem-solving skills to every project.

Beyond design, Ashlyn is a devoted wife and mother. Married in 2021, she has two bonus kids, a 16-year-old daughter and a 10-year-old son, plus a 17-month-old son. She stays active with family, enjoys creative projects, and loves the outdoors.
