Who Am I
Growing up in the Caribbean has undoubtedly shaped Aliyyah Brooks' interior design style.
The bright hues of the ocean, the lush greenery, and the colorful flowers have taught me to embrace bold colors and patterns. From the smooth, sandy beaches to the rugged cliffs, she developed a love for incorporating natural materials like wood, stone, and rattan into her designs. These elements add warmth, character, and a sense of connection to the outdoors.
She strives to design interiors that feel like an extension of the outdoors, incorporating elements like natural light, ventilation, and open floor plans. This creates a sense of relaxation and tranquility.
Her Caribbean upbringing has provided her with a unique perspective on interior design. The vibrant colors, natural textures, and warm atmosphere of the region have inspired her to create spaces that are both beautiful and welcoming.
She moved to London as a teen and experienced a bustling metropolis, a very different world to my tropical island life. She fell in love with its eclectic style, historical architecture, and the diverse cultural influences. However, living in London, where space is at a premium, has also significantly shaped her approach to interior design. The small homes and apartments encountered there necessitated clever spatial planning and a focus on ergonomics. It's grey skies and inclement weather gave me a deeper appreciation for her island roots and the effect of sunshine and bright skies on mental health and happiness.
One of the most valuable lessons she learnt was the importance of maximizing every square inch. She discovered that even in the smallest of spaces, it’s possible to create a warm and inviting atmosphere with carefully selected pieces. She learnt to curate spaces that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
Overall, her time in London has equipped me with a unique perspective on interior design. The challenges and opportunities presented by small spaces have inspired designs that are both functional and stylish, maximizing space and creating comfortable, inviting environments.
These experiences broadened her horizons and exposed her to a wide range of design aesthetics.
Now calling Dallas, Texas home, she's found a perfect balance between the laid-back Southern charm and the cosmopolitan energy that the city offers. Her goal is to bring a touch of Caribbean warmth and London sophistication to designs, creating spaces that are both inviting and unique.
