Luxury designer Ali Budd started her business in her basement just over a decade ago and now her firm is responsible for designing some of the most bespoke and upscale homes in North America. Ali oversees a team of wildly creative and hardworking women who take on epic builds and extensive renovations under the pressure of tight timelines, stretched supply chains and demanding clients across North America, ultimately delivering chic and custom spaces tailored to each homeowner’s needs, wants and whims. Whether it’s a stunning lake house on a remote private island, a modern take on a century-old farmhouse in ski country or a bold 4-storey beach house on the Jersey Shore, there’s no project too daunting or design detail too small to challenge Ali. Pushing luxury design to its limits and never taking ‘no’ for an answer in her pursuit of design perfection is what her business is all about.
