A virtual appointment is an scheduled meeting over the computer using Skype (PC) or iChat (Mac). When using one of these services, we can see and hear each other on the computer monitor. It is a quick and easy way to meet for our initial conversation and when a short meeting is needed to answer questions or make clarifications.

The holidays are just weeks away. Is your dining room ready? For many of us, the dining room is rarely used, it becomes a store room for things we don’t know what to do with. Dining rooms are generally located near the front of the home and give our guests one of their first impressions of who we are and how we live. Their impression doesn’t need to be a negative one.

This dining room was dated and lacked atmosphere. The homeowner wanted a change and called us in for some needed interior design. The patterned wall covering competed for attention with the rest of the room. We specified a beautiful shimmery gold faux finish for the walls that adds interest and atmosphere to the room. This finish is especially lovely in candlelight. The crown molding raises the eye while the chair rail breaks up a solid wall and adds just enough detail to the walls. The carpet was replaced with a beautiful warm toned wood floor. Lack of storage was also a problem. The charming corner hutch did not have enough storage for china, linens, and treasured collectables. The addition of a beautiful lighted hutch gives the homeowner enough display area for her glassware and collectibles with covered storage below. The new table and chairs allows seating for eight at a moments notice before adding a leaf for a larger group.

The addition of drapery panels to the room adds color, softness and just the right amount of pattern to maintain an elegant, relaxed atmosphere. The chic color palette allows the addition of coordinating accessories and tableware to continue the flow of color throughout the room.

This dining room is now ready for the many memorable moments in the years to come from birthdays, holidays and relaxing dinners with friends and family.

Yes, window treatments give warmth, creativity and a finishing touch to a room that nothing else can. We will discuss your window orientation, function, style and color preferences. A rendering of your window treatment will be completed, followed by adding color and pattern preferences. When the rendering is complete, you will know what your new window treatment will look like before it is ordered. If you would like to see an example, we will be happy to email you one at your request.

Definitely. After working 25 years in interior design, I am very familiar with the furnishings market. I spent a great amount of time searching for the best and most creative pieces that you wonʼt find at retail stores.

Contact me and we can discuss your interior design style.

The amount of time needed depends on the size of the design project, itʼs complexity, and the number of services required. Since furnishings and window treatments are custom ordered, the purchasing and installation process usually takes 3-4 months. It is not uncommon for a project to take 6 to 8 months from concept to completion.

Contact me for a complimentary meeting.

Our initial complimentary meeting will be via phone, iChat or Skype. We will use this time to get acquainted and to determine your needs and desires for your project. Consultation is available on an hourly basis. For most projects, a design fee is determined that is based on the scope of the project. Purchasing, delivery, and installation are also available as a separate service.
