CAROLINE BRACKETT
PRINCIPAL DESIGNER & OWNER
A North Carolina native with roots in the furniture industry, Caroline earned her degree in Interior Design from the University of Georgia in 2001, after which she moved to Charlotte to begin her career. Caroline Brackett Studio of Design was established in Charlotte in 2004, and is now based in Greenville, SC servicing clients throughout the Southeast and beyond.
Caroline’s work is widely renowned for its classically-appointed juxtapositions: modern meets antique, and high end meets curated, found goods. The result is a perfect manifestation of each client’s vision and personal aesthetic. Caroline’s strengths are her endless ideas and inspiration, unwavering work ethic, and her passion for all things timeless and classic.
Along with her three children, Fin, Josie, and Beau, and too many animals to count, Caroline lives in a recently-renovated 1870’s farmhouse on 105 acres outside of Greenville. Midway Farm is Caroline’s passion project, and the extensive renovation was truly a labor of love. She enjoys gardening, taking care of her animals, being outside with her children, and all things farm life! Caroline works hard and plays hard, and she is truly thankful to have the best of both worlds.
