Interior designer, Charlotte Moss was born and raised in Richmond, Virginia. The rich history of her birthplace had a profound effect on her. In an article, HGTV.com said that she exudes great warmth, humor and Southern charm.

Informed, gracious, authentic design is evidence of a life lived that way.

The New York City based designer opened her design company in 1985. Her design style is Traditional, Eclectic with a nod to both the historical elegance of the past and modern necessities like comfort and livability of today.

In her July 2016 House Beautiful column, Charlotte Moss on Living History she encourages the reader to: “Go, see, do…. three simple ideas I implore you to embrace.” 

Charlotte Moss has written nine interior design books.

In reviews of her book it is said:

“The queen of ‘why not’ approach to decorating spills her trade secrets and methodology.” ~Life in a Venti Cup

“Moss creates atmosphere, charm, and character like no one else.” ~LoftLife Magazine

In a Feb 2012 House Beautiful article, Master Class: Meet Designer Charlotte Moss she states: “Photography is a discipline that makes you focus. It can be very spiritual — it puts you in the moment.” 

Charlotte Moss has partnered with design companies to create licensed collections: Brunschwig & Fils, Fabricut, Pickard China, Century Furniture, Stark, Agraria, and  Soicher-Marin.
