Lydia's interior design for a local client

One glance at Patrick Street Interiors' portfolio is like stepping into a gallery of varied styles, each brought to life with the Patrick Street Interior team’s creative touch. Whether it's a cozy family room, an elegant dining area, or a tranquil bedroom retreat, its designs will invoke emotions and tell a story. The designers weave clients’ personalities into the fabric of the design, resulting in spaces that resonate with authenticity.

Turning Personal Passion into a Business

Its story begins with Lydia's lifelong fascination with the world of design. From an early age, she found herself captivated by the interplay of colors, textures, and furnishings that turned houses into homes. Beginning her professional career as an electrical engineer, Lydia’s penchant for designing spaces in her own home was the personal hobby that started a nearly three-decade career in interior design. In 1992, armed with a keen eye for design and an unyielding commitment to quality, she transitioned from her career as an engineer to interior designer and opened Lydia Baker Interiors, which transformed into Patrick Street Interiors over the next two decades.

Originally located on Patrick Street in historic downtown Frederick, Md., Lydia’s business swiftly became a hub for those seeking to breathe life and character into their living spaces. With each project, Lydia's expertise evolved Patrick Street Interiors into a brand synonymous with elegance and innovation. Her signature style, a blend of timeless elegance and modern functionality, struck a chord with D.C. metro-area clients who came to her seeking both comfort and sophistication. Lydia fosters open communication with her clients, inviting them to share their ideas, aspirations, and even concerns. She ensures that the final design not only meets aesthetic expectations but also feels like an authentic reflection of the client's lifestyle. This personalized approach has not only earned Patrick Street Interiors a loyal client base but has also resulted in numerous accolades and industry recognition. Lydia’s designs are featured in the Baltimore Sun, Washington Post, Carroll County Times, and Better Homes & Gardens.
