Hi I’m Leigh, the owner of Homeleigh Designs

Homeleigh Designs began in May 2024, born from the realisation that my love for design and crafting furniture could become something more.

I’ve always been a creative at heart, it’s where I feel most like myself. But for a long time, I followed a more academic path, earning a master’s degree in chemistry and building a career as a scientist. Even after reaching the goals I’d worked so hard for, something still felt missing.

That’s when I turned to upholstery, at first as a way to unwind, but it quickly became so much more. It reawakened that creative spark I’d pushed aside for years and reminded me where I truly feel fulfilled.

Each piece I create is a labor of love, driven by my quest for unique designs I couldn’t find elsewhere—so I decided to make them myself!

I hope you’ll join me on this journey, sharing in the excitement of building Homeleigh Designs as a brand for those who seek truly bespoke and beautiful furniture.
