About Robin Daly
Hi, I’m Robin Daly — an interior designer based in the Pacific Northwest, where the surrounding forests, coastline, and sky have long shaped both my work and my way of life.
I come from three generations of home professionals. My grandfather was a decorator who opened Daly’s Paint in Seattle in the 1930s — a business that became a beloved local fixture, expanding into retail stores and a manufacturing company known for stains, finishes, and specialty coatings that are still made today. I grew up working in that world, learning early how to match materials to people and style to lifestyle.
Later, I helped launch C2 Paint, a boutique color brand now sold throughout the U.S. and Canada. That deep background in color and craft continues to inform the way I design: with attention, intention, and a deep respect for how people truly live in their homes.
Over the years, I’ve partnered with hundreds of homeowners, architects, and builders — each collaboration sharpening the intuitive, detail-driven approach I bring to every space. I work on large-scale renovations and custom new builds across the Pacific Northwest, including Whidbey Island, Semiahmoo, Bellingham, and the greater Seattle area. I’m drawn to projects where quality matters — where the goal is to build something lasting, beautiful, and entirely personal.
My aesthetic leans toward interiors that exude a sense of warmth and clarity. I’m drawn to natural materials, timeless forms, and colors that connect to the landscape. I believe that a well-designed home should feel effortless — grounded in its architecture, responsive to its environment, and deeply reflective of the people who live there.
Beyond my design work, I’ve shared insights as a columnist for the Seattle Post-Intelligencer and 425 Magazine, and I’ve taught and spoken on topics ranging from color theory to renovation strategy. But my favorite work is still one-on-one: guiding thoughtful clients through complex design decisions, and helping bring their vision into form with ease and intention.
When I’m not on site or sourcing materials, you’ll likely find me walking urban trails, refining color palettes, or connecting with the craftspeople who bring depth and authenticity to the work — just like my grandfather did.
