Creating Timeless Interiors That Tell Your Story
For over 25 years, Debby Gomulka has been transforming houses into homes and spaces into sanctuaries. Her approach to interior design is deeply personal, rooted in the belief that exceptional design begins with understanding who you are—your history, your travels, your passions, and your dreams.
Sophisticated Yet Simply Modern
Debby's signature aesthetic blends historic inspiration with contemporary living. Drawing from her background in art history and historic preservation, she creates interiors that honor the past while serving modern lifestyles. Whether working on a historic mansion or new construction, her designs feature:
Custom Color Palettes
Carefully curated colors based on client stories and color psychology.
Artisan Craftsmanship
Collaboration with skilled craftspeople for bespoke furniture, cabinetry, and fixtures.
Global Influence
Incorporation of travel-inspired elements and international design motifs.
Sustainable Luxury
Eco-conscious material selection, including reclaimed and vintage pieces.
Timeless Quality
Focus on enduring design over fleeting trends.
Each project is tailored to the client's unique vision. From coastal elegance to European classicism, Debby's versatility ensures every space reflects its owner's personality while maintaining sophisticated design integrity.
The Marrakech Textile Collection
In 2025, Debby launched the Marrakech Textile Collection, a line of sustainable luxury fabrics inspired by Moroccan design and a client's childhood travels. Created in collaboration with the historic Baxter Mill Archive in South Carolina and NC State's Wilson College of Textiles, this collection exemplifies her commitment to eco-luxury design.
The collection features hand-crafted patterns derived from one of Debby's original logo designs, transformed into rich textiles for home goods and fashion. Each piece honors traditional craftsmanship while incorporating modern sustainable practices—proving that luxury and environmental responsibility can coexist beautifully.
The Marrakech Collection has been featured in Charleston Home + Design Magazine and will debut at "An Evening in Marrakech" fashion show event in Charleston, October 2025.
