What are your three "must haves" in order to create an inviting space?

  1. Beautifully printed fabrics – whether they are on walls or on upholstery- there is something about a print that softens the space and makes people feel less nervous about spilling red wine!
  2. Antiques – they are story telling pieces and can be a way to express client personality 
  3. Great lighting – I find it important to have multiple layers of lighting in a space. Table lamps to sconces to candles to overhead lighting – functional and beautiful.

What are some design upgrades you recommend to clients that won't break the bank?

Paint, paint, paint! If you find yourself staring at white walls, painting them a beautiful shade of cream will tie the room together and give your art something to stand on
