In the world of interior design, where every space tells a unique story, Ashleigh Clark shines as a leading light in the field. As the founder, owner, and principal designer of Ashleigh Clark Interior Design Group, her journey from a young architecture enthusiast to an award-winning designer is nothing short of inspirational. 

 

 

Growing up, Ashleigh's family had deep ties to the world of design. Her mother specialized in custom draperies and bedding. This environment stoked her curiosity and ignited a passion for creating beautiful spaces, even though she wasn't initially aware of the term "interior design." With no HGTV and little knowledge of interior design in her area, Ashleigh initially contemplated a career in architecture.

 

However, during high school, a change of plans occurred as she discovered her love for interior design. She found it to be a more fitting avenue for her creative aspirations. Ashleigh's journey began, and her path was set. She pursued a degree in interior design and historic preservation at Ursuline College, where her passion and talent for design flourished.

 

 

Ashleigh's professional journey took flight during her college years when she managed a furniture store and acquired her first interior design client. Remarkably, she still works with that client today. Her official entry into the world of interior design occurred in 2001 when she embarked on her journey to create beautiful and functional spaces for her clients.

 

As Ashleigh continued to develop her client base, she honed her skills and became a lead designer in various design firms. However, her passion for interior design, coupled with a desire for autonomy, led her to establish Ashleigh Clark Interior Design Group in 2019. This move allowed her to provide her clients with the personal attention and customized service they deserved, all while staying close to her home in Strongsville, Ohio.

 

Today, the Ashleigh Clark Interior Design Group boasts a team of five passionate professionals, offering full-service residential and commercial design services to clients throughout Ohio and beyond. They specialize in everything from home refreshes, furniture, art, accessories, and draperies to full-scale construction and renovations.

 

 

When you think of vibrant, personality-driven homes, Ashleigh Clark's work immediately comes to mind. Her remarkable expertise in new builds, large-scale renovations, and comprehensive furnishings has earned her recognition as Cleveland's "Best in Interior Design" for two consecutive years. Her impressive portfolio has even graced the pages of renowned publications such as HGTV, Architectural Digest, and Forbes.

 

 

At Ashleigh Clark Interior Design Group, the client always takes center stage. Ashleigh and her team prioritize communication and collaboration, ensuring that the client's vision and needs are at the forefront of every project. The design process typically begins with a phone call and a discovery phase to get to know the client's style and preferences. An initial design meeting, either at the client's home or the studio, is scheduled to delve into the specifics of the project.

 

Ashleigh emphasizes that the team's approach is highly client-driven. They arrange multiple meetings, allowing clients to participate in selection days where they can make choices that resonate with their taste. The rest of the process, including drawings and pricing, is expertly managed behind the scenes, relieving clients of the stress associated with renovating or building a new home. This approach provides clients with a seamless and enjoyable experience throughout the entire design process.

 

“We take everything off of our clients’ shoulders,” points out Ashleigh. The whole design process is handled with ease, providing peace of mind to clients in the process.

 

 

Outside of her design work, Ashleigh finds inspiration in various aspects of life. She is a dedicated mother to teenage boys, and through her work, she hopes to instill in them the values of hard work and determination. Traveling and immersing herself in the wonders of nature are also essential sources of inspiration for her.

 

“I also love art,” she smiles. “Anytime I can get lost looking at art really helps with inspiration.”

 

She also loves walking her beloved dog, who is a member of the family.

 

 

For those considering the assistance of a designer, Ashleigh offers a valuable piece of advice: “Reach out sooner rather than later.” Many people think they need to have everything in place before contacting a designer, but in reality, designers like Ashleigh and her team can help you navigate the entire process, making it more manageable and efficient. Start by compiling images, a list of your needs and wants, and then reach out to a designer to bring your vision to life.
