Domino Creative was launched in 2007 by Taylor Drotman as a boutique interior design firm specializing in high-end residential properties. The firm’s approach to design has always been rooted in the client’s needs and desires, focusing on how individuals interact in their space, and how that space can augment one’s life. Modern and classic, elegant yet simple, Domino Creative aims to create spaces that can be admired and enjoyed in equal measure.

Services range from complete renovations to furniture packages to staging for sale or rent and everything in between. The firm currently maintains offices in New York City and the Turks and Caicos Islands where it focuses on design and renovation of high-end residential homes, oceanfront villas, and select commercial properties. Clients have included the Grace Bay Club, Turks & Caicos Banking Company, and most recently Beach Enclave, a private villa community.

Taylor Drotman

Principal

Taylor Drotman first encountered the world of interior design at age three when her family home was photographed for House & Garden. She took a 20 year sabbatical, studied art and literature at the University of Pennsylvania, created s3 Magazine, a luxury publication for the Turks and Caicos, and then returned to design in 2006 working for private clients in New York and Chicago. During that time she renovated a 130-year-old townhouse, refurbished the public spaces of a 26-story residential building, and designed numerous private apartments. In Turks and Caicos, she has completed interiors projects at multiple world-renowned Grace Bay resorts, designed the furniture package for the Beach Enclave developments, and designed the interiors of private villas throughout the country. Taylor divides her days between NYC’s upper west side and the south shore of Turks and Caicos, somehow having found time to travel to more than 30 countries whose disparate aesthetics are a constant source of inspiration.
