Designer Profile
Founded by Patricia McLean in 1985, Patricia McLean Interiors, Inc. is located in Atlanta in the heart of Buckhead. Considered a true, traditional designer, Patricia specializes in the customization of paint colors, finishes and fabrics and layering of antiques and accessories. Guiding clients architecturally through construction to ensure the “bones†are correct for furniture placement and flow is paramount to her design philosophy.
A graduate of the University of Georgia with a Bachelor of Science in furnishings and interiors, Patricia was selected to restore the Georgia governor’s mansion ballroom. In addition, she has been featured in the Cashiers, North Carolina Designer Showhouse and the Atlanta Symphony Associates’ Decorators’ Show House for many years, earning a 2010 American Society of Interior Designers Design Excellence Award for her work at The St. Regis Atlanta Residences. Patricia has since designed two residence model homes and the retail shop for The St. Regis Atlanta. She also received the Institute of Classical Architecture’s 2009 Philip Shutze Residential Interior Design Award for her interior design of a classic, Regency-styled custom home.
