“Random Objects” and Design
You would not believe it, but when I see random objects, I normally think of something creative to go with it or to work with it. As I found some deep turquoise antique lamps and I am dying to use them in a project. Guess what, we have a show house coming up that we...
Kitchens and Baths
From time to time, we talk about our dream kitchen. My husband has become the cook so it is less important to me, but our clients are really into their kitchens. Some of our clients really want the gleaming look of white and quartz, while others say they want more...
Style and Sophistication

Self-Reflection in Style and Design
When we meet with clients, we know that every customer is different and every room they want to work on is special. We travel to all of the Markets, near and far, to find and present the perfect elements to create the space they desire from floor to ceiling. We...
Interesting Ideas
I often wonder why people want their kitchens to be so Spartan looking. They don’t have anything on the counters and it feels austere, as if no one lives there. Just because a kitchen is a functional space doesn’t mean it’s exempt from the recurring ideas from the...
