Treci Smith is an interior stylist and vintage hunter in San Diego California. Her deep dives into estate sales, thrift stores, and even her clients own living rooms; allows her to style rooms in a way that honors the past, while keeping an eye focused on the future. Treci understands that styling is not just  about beautiful objects, but also about how people live and connect to others while in the space. Her spaces are  practical, but uniquely individual and full of soul. 

Treci consults and sells her vintage findings from her studio and retail space in San Diego California. She also manages Peppertree Suites, her family’s AirBnB, which was featured on HGTV along with her backyard. 

What Does Black History Month Mean to you this year? 

Obviously, given the events of last year, Black History Month resonates much more with me this year. I also think it’s a reminder to honor our history and celebrate our achievements, while we continue to advocate for social justice. Much to celebrate, and much work still to be done.

What is the first creative thing you are going to do post pandemic? 

One of the silver linings of Covid is that it’s given me the opportunity to slow down and dive into creative projects that I’ve put on the back burner. I hope that I’ll be able to maintain that space post COVID. Also, I’ve always been inspired by travel and immersing myself in other cultures so one of the first things I’ll do is travel.
