About
Lydia Geisel has been on the editorial team at Domino since 2017. Today, she writes and edits home and renovation stories, including house tours, before and afters, and DIYs, and leads our design news coverage. She lives in New York City.
Experience
Lydia started at Domino as an editorial intern back in 2017, predominantly writing design news stories and celebrity content—she’s interviewed design stars like Leanne Ford, Sarah Sherman Samuel, Brigette Romanek, Nate Berkus, and more. She eventually got hooked on all things renovation, so you can catch her curating Domino’s weekly Reno email newsletter or in-real-life at annual design shows like KBIS.
Education
Lydia graduated from Wake Forest University in 2017 with a double major in art history and communications.
Highlights
- Enjoys interviewing gutsy renovators about the good, the bad, and the gritty of transforming a space.
- Other interests include needlepoint and Friday night Container Store trips.
- Before joining the Domino team, Lydia was a freelance writer for Modern Luxury.

Thing in My House I Can't Live Without
My Flintstones-esque table lamp from CB2 and striped jute rug (an Amazon score!). They make my teeny NYC studio feel super cozy.
