The Interior Collection

So many times throughout the year, we find ourselves reminiscing about past clients and projects. And many times we are delighted honored to begin new projects with return clientele. The design industry is so very ever-changing and it is interesting to see how trends evolve and those that transition into classics and prove their longevity. We are reminded everyday that "beauty is in the eye of the beholder". We design for the client-their tastes, their needs, the way their

One of the "perks" of my job is destination projects. It allows me to depart from everyday living and designing, reach into another region and culture and create something unique for each client. Our destination projects and collaborations have included Colorado, Los Angeles, New Jersey Shore, The Delaware Coast, Texas Hill Country and France. But this winter, during a cold week in Texas (40 degrees), I had the opportunity to get away to sunny Cabo San Lucas. Each destinat

With the holidays fast approaching, I felt it necessary to attempt to calm your nerves about entertaining set up. Each year, as fall rolls around and I start to think about the holiday schedule, I am reminded --I love this time of year! The smells, the glitz and glam, the family gatherings...but with all that excitement, comes a bit of stress as well. What will I cook, where will we gather, how will I embellish and accessorize, so that it brings something different to the

Tile trends have see a shift over the past few years. No longer are the days of endless tumbled marble and heavily textured accents. Our design schedule seems to be full of new construction and renovation projects and tile selection is one of the most important parts of the design and building process. Lucky for us--the industry is stacked with beautiful marble, glass and even concrete tiles. I thought it would be fun to share with you just a few of my favorite tile trend

Happy Fall on this beautiful Sunday! As I've said before--I love the changing of the seasons and the fresh new look it brings with it. Just like the changing weather outside, our design showroom transforms each fall with new product introductions and exclusive collections. I could not be more excited to share our 2016 Fall Floor Change with you.... For an even better view, visit our showroom and give your space a fresh new update of it's own. #showroom #inspiration #brandin

I love having the opportunity to share projects that bring us joy and professional gratification! This Chic Living Room, has so many elements of Classic and Modern details that transcend time and make this space relevant, even years after it's completion. The most rewarding project that a designer can work on is one that truely reflects the client's personality and the architecture of the home. This stunning living space was intented, by the builder, to be a formal dining r

I would have a tough time saying that lighting wasn't one of the single-most important decisions in a home. Whether it is functional task lighting or just the right decorative fixture--lighting can set the tone for the space unlike any other element in the room. When working with a client on a new home construction or renovation/update, lighting fixture selection and placement by far outweighs all other material selections, in the way of time. The options are endless, the

Have you been dreaming of new "spa-inspired" bedroom - the oasis you experience when staying in a plush hotel suite? This recent Guest Suite makeover has just the right amount of comfort and elegance. With serene neutrals and shades of blue and green, any guest would feel welcome and pampered. Makes me want to curl up with a good book and relax! A combination of custom upholstery and linens and an eclectic mix of classic and transitional casegoods proved to be just the tic

Don't you just love it when you find inspiration in the most unlikely places? I sure do! But inspiration for design is all around us--textiles, jewelry, a beautiful sunset--creativity can be found almost everywhere we look. Several years ago, while working with a client in Aspen, Colorado, I was introduced to Hotel Jerome Aspen. It made such an impression on me, that years later, I recalled my time there to inspire a "Lounge" design in a Grapevine residence. Hotel Jerome

I absolutely love completion of a well thought out project. It is our chance to bring all of the elements of a design into full circle and present a home that is ready to entertain and be enjoyed by family and friends. Although bitter sweet, it is so rewarding to see a client relishing in the designs you have created! But a design project is not complete until the finishing touches are applied--artwork and accessories are the jewelry of any space. Artwork offers an extra
