About Us - Allyson Hicks Design Consulting

Allyson Hicks

PRINCIPAL DESIGNER

Allyson is a Baton Rouge native who’s always had a love of beautiful interiors. “I have spent my entire adult life pursuing this love”. As I’ve grown in my career and have seen the variety of options for decorating your home expand, I feel it is important to keep local elements alive in your decor.

Allyson gained her BFA degree in Interior Design from Converse College in Spartanburg, SC in 1996. After residing in both Spartanburg and Charleston, SC, she moved back to Baton Rouge, LA. She has been working in the field of design for over 25 years. Allyson opened her own design consulting firm in 2007 after her son was born. “I can’t imagine doing anything else with my life and career. I’ve known I was a designer since I was 12 years old.”

Colleen is a Louisiana native, who just recently relocated from Houston, Texas after 29 years. “I’m thrilled to be back home again where I can reconnect with the things I love – family, friends, LSU and Louisiana hospitality.”
