Dierdre GaddyDirector of Interior Design

Stunningly beautiful, luxuriously stylish, uniquely captivating, and flawlessly delivered aren't just words to describe the Terra Firma Development; they also epitomize the essence of its Director of Interior Design, Dierdre Gaddy. From the moment you engage in her company, you'll notice that the qualities she oversees in the livable masterpieces at Terra Firma are also intrinsic to her personal composition, and she takes immense pride in them. Dierdre is known for her classic red lipstick, Ferragamo glasses, and tasteful blend of neutral colors and animal prints—an intentional fusion of form and function that permeates her personal style. In conversation with her, it becomes clear that these values are intentionally interwoven into her personal aesthetic. However, it's her unwavering passion for the client experience that truly shines through. Dierdre speaks with unwavering conviction and pride about her role within the Terra Firma team, recalling a meeting with the Developer that solidified her commitment to the project. From the outset, the team's ambition extended beyond shaping the Las Vegas landscape with this audaciously ambitious and historically significant project; it aimed to redefine the client journey in the realm of ultra-luxury custom homes. With Dierdre's guidance, Terra Firma achieves this innovative standard through a client-centric experience that celebrates the journey as much as the destination. No shortcuts are taken in this deeply communicative process, which is characterized by personalized and thoughtful service, timely execution, endless possibilities, and expert guidance when needed. The result is a lavish and personalized sanctuary that is truly unparalleled both inside and out. While Dierdre attributes her involvement in the project to her Developer, it is her family that she credits for everything else. Raised in Jamaica, her early passion for design was nurtured by her mother and brother. She fondly recalls her mother's creative flair evident in discussions about fabrics, textures, colors, and patterns, as well as in the preservation of unique furniture pieces from their family home. Her brother, an architect, served as a constant source of inspiration and encouragement, urging her to pursue her dreams all the way to Miami, Florida, where she studied art and design. Today, Dierdre is a dynamic professional with over 15 years of experience in elite-level interior design, and her motivation and drive are stronger than ever. When she's not working, Dierdre finds joy in reading biographies, watching documentaries, and embracing the comforts of home, for it is where her heart truly resides. Married to her husband Richard for 11 years and now a mother to a beautiful 15-month-old daughter, she views motherhood as a blessing that has enriched her life. Her ultimate commitment is to be a strong woman, raising a strong woman, exemplifying her dedication to her daughter's future.
