NEW: STARBOARD LANE by Tiffany Cassidy
THIS SPRING, SAINT THOMAS COMES TO LIFE ON STARBOARD LANE
Tiffany Cassidy Debuts Caribbean-Inspired Textile Collection
St. Thomas, USVI – March 12, 2025 – Saint Thomas-based interior designer Tiffany Cassidy is delighted to introduce Starboard Lane, a stunning new textile collection that captures and reimagines the essence of island living. Drawing inspiration from the lush landscapes, breezy architecture, and relaxed lifestyle of the U.S. Virgin Islands, this collection brings the designer’s fresh, colorful perspective to her inaugural textile collection.
With over 20 years of experience in the interior design arena, first as the owner of St. Thomas' only on-island workroom and then as Founder of design firm Lagnappe Interiors, Cassidy saw the launch of Starboard Lane as a natural evolution of her creative journey. "I have had a passion for textiles my entire life," she shares. "I wanted to create a collection that embodies the Caribbean aesthetic while remaining practical and versatile for everyday living."
The initial collection features patterns reflecting the region's vibrant natural beauty and cultural influences, set against a lively, energetic, and sophisticated palette suitable for various environments. At is core, Starboard Lane offers designers and their clients a touch of escapism for those who love the barefoot elegance of island living and wish to bring it to their spaces.
Collection highlights include:
Tobago Leaf – Inspired by the lush greenery that covers hillsides and lines the beaches and the islands, this pattern weaves together the vibrant hues of the Caribbean landscape.
Ti' Punch – A nod to the iconic French-Caribbean cocktail, this petite print mirrors the simplicity and charm of the beloved drink.
Island Breeze – Drawing from the island's signature breeze blocks, this geometric pattern celebrates the open-air, tropical architecture of the Virgin Islands.
Orchid Vine – Featuring delicate floral elements inspired by the native orchids of the islands, this design pays homage to the region's stunning flora.
Calypso Breeze - Imagines the simple elegance of flowering vines climbing caned structures found throughout the island's homes and yards.
With an emphasis on easy-care, breathable materials, Starboard Lane's collection is designed for those who embrace color, comfort, and the seamless blend of indoor and outdoor living. As Cassidy puts it, "I wanted to offer an antidote to the all-beige homes we see so much of these days — something timeless yet vibrant, tropical yet sophisticated."
Starboard Lane is set to debut at Spring Market in High Point, NC, in an innovative collaboration with Boone, North Carolina, based furniture manufacturer Charleston Forge. The collection is available to trade and end-users alike at Lagnappe.com. This launch marks just the beginning for Starboard Lane, with additional patterns set to be released in upcoming seasons.
