Hope Lins

Hope joined Equip Studio in 2024 after graduating from Purdue University, where she earned her BFA in Interior Design with a minor in Art History and a certificate in Entrepreneurship and Innovation. During her time as a student, Hope even spent time studying and interning in London, England. She also learned from additional internships in hospitality and residential industries. Outside of the classroom, she taught students at her local church, worked as a barista, and played on several intramural sports teams (very competitively apparently). Hope is driven to interior design for the unique intersection of “creativity” and “service,” with a passion for empathetic and human-centric design. She is inspired by Isaiah 64:8, which sparks her passion for art and design in reflectance of her Creator.

Originally from Demotte, IN, Hope has enjoyed exploring her new home of SC since moving to the area. Outside of the office, she loves to travel, hike, stay at home painting, or spend time with her loving family and husband, Ben—and of course watch Purdue basketball.
