Tracy Knight Interiors
Adding a degree of difference!
My Story
My love of interiors and blending of styles was cultivated at a young age. I was 4 when I remember being fascinated with my Grandmother’s creative process with her Interior Designer. The textiles and furniture planning I can still remember as it was just yesterday. I started to rearrange the furniture and eclectic possessions that my family accumulated through all our moves and then as a young adult out on my own.
When I was 30, I was lucky enough to go back to school and earn my BA degree in Architectural Design at Marylhurst in Lake Oswego, OR. After this I started Tracy Knight Interior in 1998 and have never looked back! I have worked for several different design studios over the years in Los Angeles, Portland, Seattle and Charlotte NC always having Tracy Knight Interiors to help showcase my portfolio and for jobs in between.
Now I live in the Southport NC area where I continue to love my work of Architecture and Design, always staying abreast of the newest trends in art, architecture, textiles and furnishing both European & Domestic.
My years of experience have shaped my philosophy to create homes and spaces that tell a story that is uniquely your and unlike anyone else.
I love giving my clients what is most important to them. Usually that is a home or a room that is not just uniquely beautiful, but also practical for daily living. I take my clients wishes and ideas and add the right amount of style and know-how to create the perfect space for them.

Testimonials
Dawn Lawson
“Really enjoyed working with Tracy! She helped us transform our home into a relaxing space with a brilliant color palette. We truly enjoy our Mountain Retreat now that it’s been updated.”
Anna Powers
“We loved the recommendations Tracy made for our house – exterior materials and interior design. Tracy recommended finishes and items well-suited to the style of our home and our vague description of our preferences. Her work was professional and efficient and, she was able to do mostly all of this from Washington when our project is in California!”
J Beckman
“Tracy gets to know you, your personality and vision and then helps bring that to life in a very stylish yet livable environment. She’s amazing to work with and stays within budget.”
M Montgomery
“Tracy provided an overall design concept for our first floor which included furniture layouts, space utilization, and an upgrade to our fireplace. The ideas were fresh and modern, and Tracy was very mindful of our budget.”
Charles Richter
“Tracy has been the designer for our family for a number of years. From minor refreshers to full scale demos and remodels, she is second to none. Her designs are timeless, and she is precise in understanding what we are looking for even though we sometimes do not. I had an artist friend at the house, and he kept looking at our walls. She unsolicitedly said to us that the colors throughout the house were unusually elegant and asked for the names from the palette that Tracy created. Similar comments from others are often expressed. What we most appreciate about Tracy is her ability to work on a project with little effort on our part and she is not only respectful of our budget, but clearly understands the cost associated with her designs before she presents them to us. We have never been placed in a situation where we had to consider cost issues after the budget was established. We have come to trust Tracy in a manner where we pretty much sign off her work without comment and we hope Tracy will be our designer for years to come.”
