Beverly Taylor is the principal designer of Beverly Taylor Design.  Initially she graduated with a degree in elementary education and taught school until she had her son, Kyle, and her daughter, Lauren.  When they were in high school, she returned to college to get her degree in interior design with a minor in fine arts. 

Beverly has a warm, straightforward personality and believes that comfort is the essential element of a successful interior.  She encourages her clients to be true to their lifestyle. Her design style enjoys a blend of the old and the new, layering of patterns and textures, and incorporating interesting art and lighting.

She loves antiquing, painting, freshly-pressed bed linens, colorful flower bouquets that include sunflowers, and laughing until she cries.  Beverly enjoys spending her time in Raleigh and at her cottage at the beach with her husband and two dogs.

Dina Alzoor Karame is the project designer at Beverly Taylor Design. She graduated from East Carolina University with a degree in interior design and minor in business. Coming from a Lebanese and Venezuelan family, Dina speaks Spanish and Arabic fluently.

She considers herself a modern traditionalist, taking traditional designs and making them clean and relevant to today’s lifestyle. It is important to her that she works to banish the notion of design only being for the privileged – feel good design should be accessible to everyone.

She is addicted to chocolate-covered almonds, loves a neutral color palette and believes a well-designed home is truly a person’s oasis.
