Some people discover their calling later in life. For Shannon Perry Taylor, it began in childhood. Long before she became a professional interior designer, Shannon was already reimagining the spaces around her—rearranging rooms, experimenting with layouts, and noticing how even the smallest design changes could influence the way people lived, connected, and felt at home. What started as a natural curiosity eventually evolved into a successful career built on creativity, functionality, and intentional design.
While her passion for design was always present, Shannon’s professional journey has spanned multiple facets of the industry. From commercial painting and wall-covering to residential interiors, retail ownership, and entrepreneurship, each chapter contributed to the well-rounded perspective she brings to her work today. Over the years, she developed a unique ability to bridge the worlds of design and construction, understanding not only how a space should look, but how it should be built and experienced.
Today, Shannon is recognized for her thoughtful approach to interior design, creating spaces that are as practical as they are beautiful. With a strong emphasis on space planning and personalization, she believes every home should reflect the unique lifestyle and personality of the people who live within it. Her work is guided by the idea that great design is not simply about aesthetics—it is about creating environments that support and enhance everyday life.
Throughout her career, Shannon became known for her hands-on approach. Often arriving on job sites with plans in hand, she worked closely alongside contractors and trades to ensure every detail was executed as intended. In an industry where women have traditionally been underrepresented on construction sites, she built a reputation for confidently navigating both the creative and technical sides of the building process. These experiences gave her a deep appreciation for the relationship between vision and execution, allowing her to seamlessly connect design concepts with real-world construction.
As the founder of SPT Brands, Shannon brings both professional expertise and real-world perspective to every project. Balancing entrepreneurship, family life, and a growing business has shaped her approach, allowing her to design spaces that feel elevated while remaining highly functional.
Nature also plays a central role in Shannon’s creative vision. Inspired by organic textures, natural materials, and the calming influence of the outdoors, she believes the most successful spaces create a sense of harmony, comfort, and connection. That philosophy influenced her own life as well. After living in several cities across the United States, including San Francisco, Shannon ultimately chose to return to Savannah, Georgia—a place whose beauty, character, and connection to nature felt more aligned with the lifestyle she wanted to create.
Sustainability remains at the heart of her work. She is passionate about helping clients make thoughtful design decisions that prioritize longevity, quality, and conscious living without sacrificing style. Looking toward the future, Shannon is entering an exciting new chapter. In addition to expanding her design practice, she is preparing to open her highly anticipated by-appointment-only showroom, where clients will be able to experience carefully curated sustainable furniture collections previously available exclusively online. The showroom represents a natural extension of her mission: helping clients create meaningful spaces while making sustainable design more accessible.
Beyond designing beautiful homes, Shannon is equally passionate about mentorship and leadership within the industry. As her business continues to grow, she looks forward to guiding the next generation of designers while continuing to push the conversation around how thoughtful design can improve the way we live.
For Shannon Perry Taylor, great design has never been about following trends. It is about creating spaces that feel intentional, personal, and timeless—spaces that truly support the lives unfolding within them.
