Donald and Melania Trump are putting their own style in the White House. It was announced Thursday that Tham Kannalikham, a New York designer who got her start at Ralph Lauren Home, was their pick to design the private quarters at the White House.

In a story that first appeared in WWD, Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, senior adviser to the first lady, made the following statement: “Mrs. Trump has a deep appreciation for the historical aspects of the White House and with Tham’s traditional design and expertise, they are focusing on a seamless integration of elegance and comfort into where the President, the First Lady, and (their son) Barron will be spending their family time and calling their home.”

Kannalikham is described as a Laotian-American designer who heads her own firm, Kannalikham Designs. She’s not well known in design circles, and you won’t find much about her on the Internet. Her bare-bones website has no detailed information about her, and her Instagram account is private.
