About



Vintagehomemidwest.com is an online source for vintage finds and a full service interior design company which originated in Redondo Beach CA.


Laura Young grew up in Southern Texas, and central Illinois, 
but lived much of her adult life near the ocean of Southern California’Pacific coastline.
As a self-taught interior designer, artist and jewelry maker, with over 25 years of experience decorating and furnishing homes, Laura is a seasoned professional. She uses her aesthetic talents to create a fresh and casual comfortable feel in any space. She loves to create interiors that are timeless and classic, but at the same time comfortable and usable.
 

"I love to create spaces and pieces for people that give them a feeling of home and help express their personality." Inspired by a love of nature and all things vintage, Laura relishes the art of rehabbing, refurbishing and reusing when creating spaces and uniquely designed furniture and art pieces. Often, her creations include reclaimed wood and objects found perusing antique marts and outdoor environments. Whether abstract or of a more whimsical nature, she also creates individual art pieces on canvas along with reclaimed wood art and jewelry.

 

Choosing not to work within the confines of traditional design, Laura created her own unique avenue to fulfill her passion for art and design in her showroom in Redondo Beach. There she and her staff of other artists inspired designers and shoppers with their expertly curated vintage pieces, furniture, artwork, and accessories.  Now, currently residing in the midwest to be closer to family,  Laura continues to use her many years of experience to design and  create wonderful spaces for clients.
