AMANDA LINDROTH
Amanda Lindroth grew up in South Florida and her signature style is influenced by the region’s architecture, climate and relaxed polish. Her early career in fashion brought her to New York where she worked for W Magazine and Women’s Wear Daily as a reporter, and later to Europe where she worked as the UK PR Director at Gucci during its renaissance in the 1990s. After relocating to the Bahamas, Amanda began decorating for both commercial projects and private homes. Since its founding in Nassau, Bahamas in 2010, Lindroth Design has expanded with offices in the Bahamas, Palm Beach and Charleston, South Carolina. In the fall of 2018, Amanda's first book, Island Hopping, was published by Vendome Press. Her second book, Island Dreaming, was released by Vendome Press in October 2024. Amanda has a design course with the prestigious Create Academy titled “Design Interiors for Entertaining,” and her work has been featured on the covers and in the pages of the most prominent shelter and lifestyle publications and digital media outlets in the US and abroad.
