An Interview with Megan Roy

Q: How would you describe your design style? 

My design style is organic, layered, and full of energy. I love to blend textures, expressive lines, and approachable elements to create artwork that feels playful, dynamic, and relatable. There’s always a sense of movement and storytelling in my work, even in the simplest designs.

Q: How have your personal experiences or personality influenced your design ideas? 

I’m endlessly curious, and that curiosity fuels my creativity. I draw inspiration from my own imagination, everyday observations, and the joy of finding beauty in unexpected places. My personality leans toward a mix of whimsy and thoughtfulness, which translates into designs that feel both fun and intentional.

Q: How do you incorporate your personal style into home design projects? 

I approach home design the same way I approach illustration—by layering elements that feel warm, inviting, and a little unexpected. I love bold motifs, playful patterns, and a mix of hand-drawn and textural elements that bring personality into a space. It’s about creating something visually engaging but still livable and comfortable.

Q: How do you balance creativity with commercial appeal? 

I think the key is finding the sweet spot between artistic expression and functionality. I create designs that feel fresh and unique while considering how they fit into people’s everyday lives. Whether it’s a print, a product, or a rug, I want it to stand out but also feel like something people will love having in their space.

Q: What was your first impression of Lany Space rugs and our style? 

I was immediately drawn to the artistic quality of Lany Space rugs—the way they feel like true works of art rather than just a rug. There’s a strong emphasis on craftsmanship, texture, and storytelling in each design, which aligns so well with my own creative approach.

Q: Could you share the story or concept behind the collection you designed for us? 

The collection is inspired by the vibrance and freshness of a strawberry patch, where overlapping vines and ripe strawberries create a sense of natural movement and abundance. I combined this organic, flowing composition with a modern quilt-inspired aesthetic to bring in a feeling of warmth and craftsmanship. The quilt influence makes the design feel like a piece that’s been lovingly stitched together over time, full of texture, charm, and a sense of home.

The Essence of This Collaboration: Strawberry Pattern

Megan’s strawberry pattern is a playful and stylized composition, inspired by the vibrance of a strawberry patch. As she mentions in the interview, ‘The collection is inspired by the vibrance and freshness of a strawberry patch.’ The flowing vines, ripe fruit, and delicate blossoms create a sense of natural abundance while maintaining a clean, decorative aesthetic. This vibrant, whimsical design perfectly embodies Lany Space’s ethos—blending artistic expression with functionality—bringing a touch of nature and playfulness into any space.

Megan’s vision comes to life through the two centerpiece rugs of this collection. Each design carries her signature balance of movement and form, turning a classic motif into a contemporary statement. From concept to creation, the transformation from sketch to rug is nothing short of magic. See how the original design evolves into a stunning pink rug in its final form here.

What makes this design so versatile is its ability to breathe life into any space, regardless of shape. The playful irregularity of this 6' x 6' round rug captures the dynamic flow of nature, with vibrant, intertwining elements that create a sense of movement. Its soft, flowing form adds warmth and charm to living rooms, bedrooms, or playrooms alike. This rug is more than just a decor piece—it’s a statement of artistry and joy. Whether nestled in a cozy corner or grounding a living space, it transforms the ordinary into something whimsical and full of life, much like the playful spirit of Lany Space.
