Meet Selena.
Coastal interior designer and founder of Low Country Coastal Design, specializing in vacation rentals and second homes along the Wilmington NC coast.
Before founding Low Country Coastal Design, Selena spent years as a lead designer at a residential construction company.
That work covered everything from exterior color palettes to custom cabinetry, lighting plans, plumbing fixtures, and full furniture packages. New construction taught her how to run a structured project including vendor coordination, lead times, install logistics, and the discipline to deliver on a developer's schedule. It's the same discipline that runs every project today.
12 + years of full-home design experience
Background in new construction and developer-led projects
Specialized practice in coastal vacation rentals and investment properties
Based on the Wilmington, NC coast — serving Topsail to the SC border
Most independent designers can pick beautiful pieces. Far fewer can run a project to completion on schedule. That gap is where Low Country Coastal Design lives.
Casual elegance. Built for the coast. Built to last.
Every home Selena furnishes lives in the same design language: organic, coastal, quietly elegant, and built to perform. Three principles guide every project.
-
Coastal homes take a beating. Salt air, sand, sunscreen, weekly turnover. Performance fabrics, commercial-grade upholstery, and finishes chosen for durability are non-negotiable.
-
Rental properties need to photograph well, function for guests, and feel welcoming without being too personal.
-
Natural materials, thoughtful layering, a calm palette make your investment property feel like it's always been there.
Our turn-key design process.
Selena's process is built so you give input where it matters, your style, your priorities, your budget, and avoid the logistics headache entirely.
-
Tell us about the property, how you'll use it, investment goals, and what you want guests to feel when they walk in.
-
Choose the package level that fits your investment goals. We'll lay out good, better, best options, so you can decide with confidence and no surprises later.
-
Review the furniture plan, layout, and selections we put together for you. Performance fabrics, durable finishes, and pieces chosen to hold up to short-term rental turnover.
-
Skip the deliveries, the storage calls, and the install logistics. We handle every piece of it. You arrive at a finished home ready for guests.
