DOREEN CORRIGAN
Principal Designer
Doreen Corrigan’s background in advertising and digital sales, paired with her personal experience renovating and upgrading her own home, laid the foundation for what would become Doreen Corrigan Design. What began as a practical project quickly evolved into a deeper understanding of how thoughtfully designed spaces shape daily life.
Through that process, she developed a clear point of view: there is real art in everyday living. That belief continues to guide her work. She is drawn to spaces that feel layered and personal, where beauty and function live side by side, and where a home supports the rhythm of daily life while still feeling elevated and refined.
In 2019, she launched her blog, The Art of Everyday Living, inspired by a quote from Helena Bonham Carter that reinforced her philosophy that life itself is art. In October 2025, the brand evolved into Doreen Corrigan Design: The Art of Everyday Living, grounding the business in her name while honoring its original vision.
Today, her work blends creative instinct with strategic thinking. With a focus on thoughtful storytelling, livable design, and a refined yet approachable aesthetic, she creates spaces that feel collected, intentional, and personal. Her goal is to help clients build homes that reflect who they are and support how they truly live.
