Studio McGee Founder Shea McGee on Her Go-To Timeless Materials and Finding the Neutral Tones That Elevate Any Space

Shea McGee’s hit Netflix show, Dream Home Makeovers, just launched its second season, highlighting her talent for creating spaces that strike that perfect balance between aspirational, attainable, and highly livable. In the series, Shea and her husband, Syd, take us into the day-to-day life of Studio McGee, their design, interiors, and commerce business located in Lehi, Utah, south of Salt Lake City. Along with their highly successful collections for Target; a best-selling book, Make Life Beautiful; and a growing and engaged Instagram audience, the McGees have helped define what it takes to build a thriving design studio and multifaceted content business. The firm crafts spaces that are, of course, beautiful, but also easy to understand and layered with materials that are timeless and classic. Its clean and enviable aesthetic is often copied, but for many, it’s the way that Shea speaks about the creative process that’s the hook—and the opportunity to learn from her successes and choices keeps her fans hungry for more. Listen in as we dive into Shea’s approach to design, and the colors and materials she is loving right now. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
