As Director of Residential Design & Development for Perry Smith Development, Darla Walker has built a reputation as one of East Tennessee’s most sought-after design voices.
With a career spanning luxury residential properties, high-ROI short-term rentals, and custom renovation projects, Darla approaches every space with an artist’s eye and an investor’s mindset.
Her work has earned recognition as an award-winning decorator, celebrated for blending rustic authenticity with refined sophistication.
Her artistry shapes every detail: from bespoke lighting installations to hand-painted finishes that bring individuality to each cabin.
Design Philosophy: Luxury isn’t about excess—it’s about intention. Every material is hand-selected, every finish carefully chosen, to create an environment where guests feel both inspired and at home.
Signature Touches:
Whether it’s a weathered barn door reborn as a dining table, or a panoramic window framing the Smoky Mountain horizon, we believe design should both inspire and endure.
