I’m Chelsea Orfanos, a New York–based mixed-media artist and designer. Born and raised in Upstate New York, I studied Fashion & Textile Technology at Buffalo State University and Textile Development & Marketing at the Fashion Institute of Technology.

For over a decade, I’ve worked across home, lifestyle, beauty, and fashion, with a background spanning branding, graphic design, product & textile design, and art direction. Today, I work as a Studio Designer at Lindsay Laine Interiors, where I bring together my background in textiles and visual storytelling with a love for thoughtful, collected spaces and objects.

Inspired by the textures and details found in nature, I create artwork and styled spaces that translate tactile complexity into experiences that feel grounded, layered, and calm.

I’m amazed at how good this lamp makeover turned out!! 

I’ve never done a diy project like this before, so I went through a couple weeks of research and overthinking. But after I got over that hump, I just experimented and had fun.
