Have you ever stepped foot in a place so captivating that you thought, I wish I could live like this all the time? For those who escape to the U.S. Virgin Islands seeking a break from the daily grind, we understand that sentiment firsthand. While leaving behind a fast-paced career for full-time island living isn’t possible for everyone, bringing a piece of that breezy, carefree lifestyle into your home is, thanks to our new fabric line, Starboard Lane.
A Fresh Take on Island Living
This vibrant new textile collection captures and reimagines the essence of island living. Drawing inspiration from the lush landscapes, breezy architecture, and relaxed lifestyle of the U.S. Virgin Islands, the collection brings our fresh, colorful perspective to our clients’ homes.
With an emphasis on easy-care, and breathable materials, Starboard Lane is made for those who seek to embrace color, comfort, and the seamless blend of indoor and outdoor living. With its timeless designs and versatile colorways, Starboard Lane offers a touch of escapism for those who love the barefoot elegance of island living and wish to bring it to their spaces.
“I wanted to offer an antidote to the all-beige and grey homes we see so much of these days — something with just the right mix of fun island style, easy care, and barefoot elegance.”
From Passion to Design
It is Tiffany’s lifelong love of fabric that drew her into the design industry from the beginning, white the creation of Starboard Lane is the culmination of Tiffany’s lifelong passion for both fabric and design. From learning to sew on her grandmother’s machine as a child to crafting custom pieces for clients at home early on to running a full-scale design firm—this collection is a natural evolution of her creative journey and has brought everything full circle. The Starboard Lane line, much like Lagnappe interiors, is all about enhancing lives through fun Caribbean-inspired interiors. We now have a way for those who love the Caribbean to bring a little bit of it to their homes no matter where they live.
Thanks to the innovation of digital printing, boutique fabric lines like ours are now more accessible than ever. Now, we can easily create custom colorways in our signature patterns, giving us even more ways to add one-of-a-kind touches to our client’s homes. This new wave of independent printing has paved the way for unique, small-batch designs to enter the market—offering something truly special, original, and personal for every home.
“I have had a passion for textiles my entire life,” – “I wanted to create a collection that embodies the Caribbean aesthetic while remaining practical and versatile for everyday living.”
