Lisa Haude’s wine

In our series, What I Love, we’re asking designers to build us a mood board of what's inspiring them right now.

Lisa Haude finds inspiration in her surroundings. The Wichita, Kansas, designer at LK Architecture employs a time-tested blend of colorful graphic patterns and touchable organic finishes to create warm yet curated spaces that draw from the great outdoors.

Designed after a recent trip to Napa Valley, Haude's current flat lay is crafted with "rolling hills, stunning sunsets and endless miles of vineyards" in mind. "One of our favorite clients asked to refresh their hotel lobby to reflect modern wine country," she tells Business of Home. "I envisioned a space full of plush textures juxtaposed against natural elements and neutral tones."

The end result is an earthy mix of intrinsically tactile materials—including bronze, linen and leather—and deep jewel-toned hues that evoke the Northern California landscape. "Much like the countryside, the mood board feels rich, lush and full of authentic charm," she says.

Here, Haude breaks down the details, from beaded necklaces to fuzzy wools.

1. MULLIGAN FABRIC IN INDIGO BY PINDLER

"The rustic texture juxtaposed by the elegant, ornamental design makes bygone opulence modern."

"Our favorite go-to leathers that will stand the test of time."
