What are the signature touches of a professionally designed room?
One of my goals as a designer is to create a visually cohesive home with unity where each room flows into the other. A professionally designed room will feature elements that reflect the client’s needs as well as incorporate design fundamentals that set the client’s home apart from others. With the help of a professional designer, clients receive expert advice on how to incorporate color, texture and overall design.
What home trends are you most excited about right now?
- Texture
- Natural elements
- Wallpaper
- Lighter wood tones in cabinets, flooring and trim
- Patterned textiles
What colors are popular right now in interior design?
Neutrals are popular on walls, furniture and textiles. We’re also seeing black incorporated in trim, cabinets and more. Lighter wood tones are becoming more common, eclipsing darker woods.
What are your favorite budget-friendly ways to refresh a room?
A paint refresh, changing accessories or furniture arrangement. Sometimes the simplest change can make a world of difference.
