KCB Boiler Room Podcast – Episode 5: Tiffany LeBlanc

Episode 5 – Tiffany LeBlanc Discusses Company Culture

Company culture and how to make it better is a perennial, ever-changing topic in the Boston build-design community. In December of 2024 we assembled a panel of principles—builder, interior designer, and landscape architect, to go deep on the topic of company culture. Tiffany LeBlanc contributed a lot to the discussion, from her position as the founder of Tiffany LeBlanc Design. With Kevin moderating the conversation, we heard some interesting stories and granular examples of how company culture plays a role in each of their businesses.

Tiffany was a great podcast guest in this follow-up chat. Her combination of high emotional and social intelligence, along with her experience, allows her to be insightful, hilarious, and almost-but-never inappropriate. What a joy to have this conversation with her.

The three moments we asked Tiffany to revisit from the panel discussion—and these were moments we wished she would have said more—were:

What’s your favorite part of company culture? Kevin’s was the camaraderie that happens when “people working together doing hard things and having a good time” and also looks like “people having a taste of each other’s lunch.”

What are the systems in place that you’ve allowed that helps you blend culture with the actual production and work you’re manifesting?

Asking Tiffany to elaborate on what she meant by what she looks for in someone, a “thinking brain.”

Tiffany’s boombox story will bring you back to the twisty gravel roads of Vermont that you didn’t know you needed, with Pure Prairie League’s “Amie” spilling out into the ether, along with the Aiwa shelf system that will leave you looking on Ebay for your own. She has suggested gifting the Boiler Room this system that’s collecting dust on a shelf in Vermont. We’re hoping it will happen!

January 2025 New England Home

Waiting three years to renovate their new Wellesley, Massachusetts, residence may not have been the original plan, but it ended up being a blessing in disguise for these homeowners. The family, who had been living in another part of Wellesley, was craving a larger space to entertain. They landed on an 8,000-square-foot five-bed-room spec house built-in 2019 on an idyllic lot.

To help achieve their goals, the owners called on designer Tiffany LeBlanc. “The house didn’t require major work, but the space wasn’t being fully optimized,” says the client. “I also knew that I wanted a different aesthetic than we had in the past, and Tiffany has great versatility. I didn’t want it to feel too traditional or too contemporary. Simply elegant.”

New England Home Magazine – August 2022

When Tiffany LeBlanc met with new clients who had purchased a unit in One Dalton, the sky-high location of Boston’s Four Seasons Hotel and Private Residences, she recalls the husband emphasizing that, despite the building’s rarefied pedigree, he didn’t want to live in a museum.

“Everything was supposed to be livable, not so precious that you need to be in a starched shirt to live there,” says LeBlanc.

For the designer, however, livability by no means translated into rough-and-ready grandkid-friendly fabrics and furnishings. Architect Anne Snelling-Lee, who worked with LeBlanc to realize and detail her designs, says, “It’s the most luxurious project I’ve ever worked on. It had so many applied finishes.”

After working with the builders to carefully select the construction materials, from cabinetry to paint colors, LeBlanc started in on outfitting the 6,300-square-foot home. To bridge the style shift from the classic front door to the modern interior, she began in the foyer, forgoing white trim for soft gray paint, and installing a circular entry table and a wool runner with a “whisper of an animal pattern” padding the path upstairs. Right away, LeBlanc set the laid-back mood: “They didn’t want to feel like they were wearing a starched shirt to hang out in the house,” she says of the owners’ vision.

When Tiffany LeBlanc of LeBlanc Designs first started with the clients of this 8,266-square-foot home, the project actually wasn’t for the property. In fact, she was originally hired to redesign the first floor of the family’s former Wellesley abode, which boasted more formal touches like a princess staircase. And then the wife called. “She was like, ‘I don’t know. We’ve been thinking… I know that we’ve been working to deformalize our original house… we may just want a less formal house,” LeBlanc remembers. Located in Weston, MA.

We Check in With Boston’s Design Stars of 2021

I’m a native Bostonian, but also… grew up in Northern California and Italy.

I would describe myself as… a true transitional designer, but I have a love affair with modern and traditional—I like both, and it depends on what the space needs.

When working with clients, my goal… is to come up with the most refined and distilled design in the most efficient way while also honoring the creative process. Clear communication is essential.

In design school, I wanted… very clear guidelines in black and white, but I was taught to see in gray.

My favorite quote about beauty is… by Da Vinci—‘Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.’

Some home innovations I love are… statement lighting, more approachable sophistication to suburban homes and the architectural nature of well-designed furniture.

New England Home – November 2020

Sometimes change can be good. Liberating even. For the owner of this storied Queen Anne Victorian in Newton, Massachusetts, it was time to shake things up a bit.

For some thirty years, the 9,000-square-foot, fifteen-room former all-girls Catholic school had been the family home. The mother of two raised her children here and flung open its grand doors to host all sorts of events, from kids’ parties and college reunions to a sorority sleepover for sixty of her daughter’s friends.

Given all those fond memories, even an impending divorce couldn’t shake her spirit—or her love for her home. “I never thought about leaving,” she says. “It’s such a special house.”

Speak with Tiffany LeBlanc for just a minute, and you’ll learn something her clients already know: She’s truly passionate about design. And it shows in her work. Inspired by her extensive travels through Europe and Asia, the native New Englander relies on texture-forward materials and finishes—and a few well-placed pops of color and pattern—to create classic yet comfortable spaces without an ounce of stuffiness. One recent success? The woodwork-heavy home in Newton she softened with romantic blush tones, metallic accents, and cuddle-friendly furniture. Light and airy, the reimagined Tudor is the perfect embodiment of LeBlanc’s covetable aesthetic: warm, welcoming, and carefully considered.

There’s nothing like working on a house with excellent bones. Especially when those bones include 19th-century millwork, five first-floor fireplaces, sky-high ceilings, and boatloads of crown molding—as was the case with the circa-1890, 7,000-square-foot Tudor Tiffany LeBlanc tackled in Newton. “[When I first] walked through, I was like, ‘I want this house!’” says the LeBlanc Design principal, who signed on to redesign the home in 2016. “It’s gorgeous. And you could tell that there was so much history in [the space].”

The Faces of Women-Led Businesses

How did you come to start your own business?
I’ve always been an independent thinker for as long as I can remember. I grew up believing that women could do anything. I’ve had experiences in the corporate world, but none as satisfying as starting my own firm.

What is the best part of being an entrepreneur?
Creating a vision and making it real. It’s rewarding to reach new milestones, and to share them with the talented people I work with. When we receive positive feedback from clients, it inspires us to keep evolving.

Can you share some of your important influences?
I’ve lived and traveled in Europe and Asia and I would say that it had a strong influence on my aesthetic. It’s fascinating to see so many different ways of living, and to translate these experiences into the interiors we design.

What is your most recent project?
Our office! We just moved to the SoWa Arts district in Boston’s South End. It’s a vibrant design community and I’m excited about being a part of the urban pulse.

Music was the main objective when it came to the design of this Brookline living room. “Rather than make a television the focus, the idea was to create a place for listening to music, for conversation, for slowing down,” says Tiffany LeBlanc of LeBlanc Design. The room features furnishings that exude a mid-century modern vibe as well as an array of textural finishes: Bleached walnut built-in bookcases are prominent, along with a striking copper ceiling pendant. “We chose a palette of livable neutrals such as pale blues and oranges that have a sophisticated downtown vibe,” says LeBlanc. Layers of materials strike a balance between rough natural finishes and softer elements. At first, says LeBlanc, the decor seems subtle, “but when you look closely, it’s apparent how much dimension and interest the room has.”

The homeowners craved extra space where they could gather on weekends to relax, watch movies, and play games with their three children. The finished basement of their Wellesley home was a perfect spot for what they had in mind. And while many families like theirs might use their basement in a similar fashion, when it came to aesthetics, the
homeowners wanted “anything but typical,” says interior designer Tiffany LeBlanc.

“We wanted to create a cozy, lounge-y feel,” says LeBlanc, who had the moldings and interior doors painted from standard white to a deep blue that matches the Phillip Jeffries navy grass cloth and gold rivet wall covering to exude a warm, enveloping feel.

Tiffany LeBlanc, the owner of a boutique interior design firm, has twin daughters. When they were babies, “I put them in separate bedrooms, but as soon as they turned three and a half they wanted to share a room,” says LeBlanc.

The takeaway? Stay simple on a nursery or child’s room until you get to know your kid’s unique personality, says LeBlanc. “I personally would wait until they’re 3 or 4 to design a room reflective of who they are.”

A grandmother to 13, the owner of this 1928 Weston Cape sought a room suited for overnight visits from them. “She wanted to make a space where the kids would feel comfortable sleeping, playing, and reading,” says Tiffany LeBlanc, the interior designer hired to transform the existing second-story bedroom. Dated wallpaper and mismatched furniture made the room feel small. Striving to give the space a bunkroom feel, LeBlanc worked with architect Michael Collins to design a built-in bed with a trundle. To offset the custom splurge, other lively furnishings were purchased off the shelf. Walls are painted a soft yellow punctuated by pops of orange and deeper yellow. While clearly a kid-friendly space, the room is also refined, says LeBlanc. “It will grow with the kids and is sophisticated enough that Grandma can live with it on a daily basis.”
