Who's behind Studio Dillard?
Hi! I’m Rachel Dillard, the creator behind Studio Dillard. I live in Portland, Maine, where I’ve been learning how to make a small space not just work, but feel like home.
Most of what fills my apartment has been thrifted, rescued or reimagined. I love the hunt as much as the transformation. Finding pieces with character and giving them a second life. My style leans into the clean lines of mid-century modern, but I can't resist mixing in a bit of maximalism.
Studio Dillard is where I share that process. From design inspiration to furniture restoration, with the hope that it encourages others to create spaces that feel intentional, lived-in and uniquely theirs.
