My design philosphy is to approach your home or sp My design philosphy is to approach your home or specific room as you would putting together a fashion outfit for work, play or evening.  Before I meet potential clients at our intial design consulation I have you fill out my design questionnaire.  And there are 2 questions you will need to answer that have do to with your personal style and what you wear (ie: colours etc). Don't be shocked if I ask to see your closet so I can see what's hanging in there (😉) So yes, it's as simple as your home should reflect your own personal style....whether its classic, fashion trendy, boho chic.....you get where I'm going here right?

Remember, shoes no longer have to match the purse (or belt).....take that thinking into furniture purchases.  You do not need that matching sofa, love seat and 2 chairs.....or the coffee table and matching end tables, or the matching bedroom set.  You most likely mix and match your outfits......and yes, you should be doing the same with home decor.  I keep saying it....."Decorate As You Dress!"

But seriosly, if your home looks like early 90's but you dress like 2021 then we need to have a chat....cause its time for a home fashion makeover!!! Call me 📲
