Island Oasis

This Lexington-based interior designer took his skills and southern charm to the Bahamas

By Elizabeth Scinta Photos by Brie Williams I believe the best way to know an interior designer is to look at the design of their home, similar to how we want to see the hairstylist’s hair before they lay a finger on our hair. Well, lucky for us, Matthew Carter of Matthew Carter Interiors has allowed us to glimpse into his home, Chanticleer Hill, in Harbour Island, Bahamas. A Lexington-based interior designer, Carter’s projects range from houses on horse farms to a tropical island oasis on Lyford Cay and Harbour Island, Bahamas.
