Once, when being interviewed, Linda Knight Carr described her point of view regarding interior direction, as she calls her profession. “My point of view is simple. To design environments which speak of luxurious old-world style, to provide the ultimate comfort to my clients, and to create a sense of timelessness in every room.”

The accomplishments of Knight Carr & Company may be attributed to several key factors. The personal touch and sense of style of it’s founder and owner are major elements, and Carr remains the driving force behind her successful business. Carr believes that the final rendition must reflect the lifestyle of the client and she keeps their needs foremost throughout the design process. The heritage of the region and a building’s distinct architecture and locale are also considered. Carr is an artistic designer who approaches each project as totally unique.

Personal service is another hallmark of Knight Carr & Company. The associates form a formidable staff. This innovative and talented team prides itself on assisting clients throughout the decision making process, giving advice on basic tasks that range from faucet selection to more complex ones such as working with contractors. They remain involved every step of the way until the last picture is hung and the house-warming gift purchased.

Also setting Knight Carr & Company apart is their extensive selection of textiles, furniture and accessories. Their library of high-end fabrics imported from New York, Atlanta, and foreign sources are renowned in the area. The prominent furniture market of North Carolina provides a fabulous selection of quality out fittings and antiques from England, France and Italy. In house made reproductions are kept on hand to be ready for a client’s choosing.

One of Carr’s unique decorating techniques is layering. Each project, whether a single room or entire home, is approached through multiple dimensions: furniture, draperies, wall coverings, accessories, and lastly art, books and finishing touches. All are balanced through color and proportion.

Carr’s insightful solutions and fresh ideas have made her work stand out above the rest. For this she has received recognition in illustrated articles by both Southern Living, Renovation Style Magazines. North Carolina Design and Better Homes & Gardens.

Over the years Knight Carr & Company has served clients from as far away as Las Vegas, NV, Boston, MA and Naples, FL, and has successfully approached renovations from tiny beach houses to former embassies. Meeting challenges is de rigueur for Carr, who has shown her considerable talents by mastering the unusual design spaces of yachts and private jets. But most satisfying are the frequent customers who return again and again for Knight Carr and Company’s services, and who recommend them to their friends, as well. With the past successes and bright future of Knight Carr & Company, Linda continues to open beautiful doors for others. May she open a door for you?
