About our Founder, Leigh Yebra

Leigh, the founder of Elle Home Design, is a proud mother of two and a longtime Petaluma resident, having called this charming town home for over 20 years. Alongside her husband, a fellow Petaluma native, Leigh has rooted herself in the community where her children were born and raised.

A self-proclaimed homebody, Leigh’s love for interior design comes from her deep appreciation for the comforts of home. She believes that home is a personal sanctuary, and one of her greatest joys is discovering what home truly means to her clients. Through Elle Home Design, she’s able to help people create spaces that reflect their unique needs, styles, and lifestyles.

When Leigh isn’t designing beautiful interiors, you can find her enjoying the simple pleasures of life. She loves riding her beach cruiser with her husband on weekends, exploring the picturesque towns of Sonoma and Marin, and sampling the incredible food at local restaurants. Healdsburg holds a special place in her heart, and she’s always up for a weekend getaway there. Outside of work, Leigh is all about self-care—whether it’s indulging in a soothing massage, squeezing in a workout, or discovering new wine pairings to enjoy.

With a keen eye for design and a genuine love for making people feel at home, Leigh’s personal and professional life reflect the values of warmth, community, and comfort that she brings to every project
