To help you achieve your home design dreams, we’ve put together a list of Latina interior experts who have styles that vary but pages that inspire and educate.

Stephanie Watkins

In Maryland, Dominican-American blogger Stephanie Watkins creates colorful, bohemian interiors. Offering more than just visual treats, however, her Instagram (and blog) are packed with design tips and DIY projects. If you love merging cultural accents from across the globe in a way that somehow still gives off modern farmhouse vibes, you’ll want to follow Watkins’ so-called glo-bo designs.

Ju DePaula

Brazilian interior designer Ju DePaula was a finalist on Netflix’s Interior Design Masters, and with one scroll through her account, you’ll wonder how she didn’t win. The Latina’s designs resemble her personality: light, colorful and fun. But no stylistic feature stands out more than her love of flowers. DePaula ignores every designer’s rule about combining different floral patterns and creates her own artistic calculation that somehow works. The good part? She doesn’t keep the secrets to herself. She sprinkles design tips throughout her page. And for those who want to learn more, she offers workshops.

Ezz Wilson
