At least twice a year, designers and treasure hunters flock to the fields of Round Top, Texas, for The Original Round Top Antiques Fair. Usually the fruits of that labor land directly in well-designed homes, escaping the eye and the purchasing power of us hyper-curious onlookers. Enter Katie Irsaneous and her design firm, Irsaneous Interiors. Originally from Fort Worth, Irsaneous worked for Ralph Lauren Home in Manhattan before moving back and starting her design business, bringing clients her mix of classic and eclectic taste. The local designer and her right-hand woman, Brie Berta, hit Round Top this fall, and their finds will join other items on The Collected, the new online store on irsaneousinteriors.com.
"It truly is collected. Sometimes I find things that I love but that don't necessarily work for an ongoing project," Irsaneous says. "I found that I have passed really good things up. Now I have an outlet for them."
