Exceptional Interiors, Individually Yours

Designer Interiors is a versatile and award-winning design firm based in Red Lodge, Montana. Led by Chanda Wahl, the firm is renowned for its high style yet personalized, approachable designs.

Every project starts by listening to the client’s vision, learning what you love, what you are passionate about, and what brings you joy. Together, we will walk through your home or place of business taking detailed notes and measurements. Your vision for how you want the space to look, feel, and function becomes the inspiration for our design.

Stylized - Never Stressed

Don’t worry, you don’t have to visualize every detail – that’s our job. We will put together a comprehensive plan along with recommendations for finishes and furnishings – and maybe a surprise or two for fun.

Once the design is approved, we manage every part of the execution – from engaging the contractor to ordering materials, overseeing tradespeople to final touches.

Our goal is to put your signature on the project – not ours.

What Our Clients Say

Chanda Wahl, ASID | Owner & Principal Designer

Chanda has been helping clients transform their space, creating beauty and function across the mountain west since 1996. Believing that collaboration is the key to creating exceptional interiors, she works closely with each client to deliver a design that goes beyond what they thought was possible. In the words of one client, “We love our newly remodeled home in Red Lodge, and so appreciate how hard the Designer Interiors team worked to make it beautiful and functional for us. They made it so easy on us through the entire design and construction process, even though we were 1,500 miles away.”

Chanda found her passion for design before she was even aware of the profession. She attended South Dakota State University, graduating with a degree in Interior Design. Following internships in Billings, she started as an Assistant Designer at Kibler & Kirch in Red Lodge, Montana.

Eventually, Chanda opened Designer Interiors and began building her own successful practice in Alaska. With an extraordinary eye for detail and a gift for interpreting her client’s vision, the firm grew dramatically. Designer Interiors worked with clients in Montana, Alaska, Oklahoma, and Texas.

In 2019, Chanda celebrated a dream come true when she relocated Designer Interiors to Red Lodge, Montana.

Leticia

Bucket List Destination: London, Amsterdam, and Paris 

The most rewarding part of my job is…Helping others and being part of a successful team.

My favorite color is…Blue – it’s the color of the ocean and sky that symbolizes serenity, stability, inspiration, and wisdom. It brings a sense of calmness and peace while still having that color that can easily be combined with other colors.

When I’m not doing my absolute favorite thing in the world, working with the Designer Interiors’ team, I can usually be found…Whipping up traditional and new recipes in the kitchen. I love the whole creative side of cooking while you make your own rules. Recipes are guidelines but no set in stone!
