As an Interior Designer in Siesta Key, where condominiums
and other small spaces abound, Cheryl Gaddie understands the importance of
creating functional spaces, but what really sets her apart is her ability to
listen and gauge exactly what a client wants. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
After almost 25 years owning a
design business, Gaddie decided to relocate to Siesta Key in 2005. In spite of
the fact that her relocation coincided with what would turn out to be the most
severe economic downturn since the Great Depression, Gaddie soon established
herself as one of the premier designers in the area. <br />

In this article, which
recently ran in Siesta Sand, Gaddie talks about using classic, timeless pieces
to create long-term design plans for her clients. Click here to read about

This week, a major flooring manufacturer was accused of selling product in the United States that tested positive for high levels of formaldehyde. The laminate flooring was labeled "CARB Phase 2–compliant," which refers to the California Air Resources Board's standards for formaldehyde emissions for flooring products. When independently tested by three labs, the laminate flooring in question had chemical levels far exceeding the acceptable standard.<br />
<br />
Formaldehyde is a chemical that is used in manufactured wood product adhesives. It is in the resin used to hold layers of plywood together as well as a binder in MDF, or particle board. The most common resins used are urea-formaldehyde (UF), used in interior product, and phenol-formaldehyde (PF), used in exterior product. The reason formaldehyde is used as a binder is because it is effective and cheap.<br />
<br />
The problem with formaldehyde, a known carcinogen, is that it continues to "off-gas" for years. Off-gassing is the chemical process where, simply put, the uncured product continues to evaporate or dry. It is the phenomenon that creates the "new car smell" when you purchase a new vehicle or the smell you experience for weeks after you paint a room. It is a process that is exacerbated by hot or humid climates.<br />

<br />
Formaldehyde is a chemical (along with arsenic) that was banned in domestically made (US) wood products in 2009. It is still widely found in products made outside of the United States however. The real problem is that it is not only found in laminate flooring but in cheap cabinets and bargain furniture too. You can protect yourself and your family by taking precautions as you move forward with your renovations and new construction. There are safe and available alternatives.<br />
<br />
Plywood manufactured in the United States utilizes methyl diisocyanate (MDI) as a resin. This is a polyurethane based product that is formaldehyde-free. Seek businesses that manufacture products locally, using US made materials that you can ask for. Request domestic product and compare it side by side with Chinese product. You will easily see the difference. Of course, quality always comes at a price, which you must realistically expect. Polyurethane products are petroleum based and come at a significant premium. You can expect to pay 25% more for domestic product, but what price is health and safety?<br />

<br />
There are a few things you can do however to increase the value of your renovation.<br />
1. Score a great deal in the first place. This is challenging (but not impossible) now as prices are rising back to pre-boom values. Be ready to make an offer with your financing already in place. Better yet, cash is king.<br />
<br />
2. Location, location, location. Find an up and coming neighborhood (just make sure you can handle living there while the area is in transition) or choose the crummiest house in the best neighborhood. You'll never go wrong buying in a popular neighborhood (or on the water).<br />
<br />
3. Add square footage. Choose a project where you have the flexibility to add space to what is there. An extra bathroom, bedroom or living space will always add value to a home.<br />
<br />
Home values are calculated based on a price per square foot within the neighborhood. More square footage equals more value. This is the single most important thing you can do to increase the value of your home.<br />

<br />
Do not despair. Gather your photos and make an appointment to come talk to Cheryl, Keri, and Jackie about what can be done to update your space. Sometimes miracles can be achieved simply by changing a paint color or rearranging your space plan.<br />

<br />
Fully renovated in 1974 and meticulously maintained for 40 years with little or no change. Harvest gold cabinetry, Partridge Family linoleum, and Laura Ashley wallpaper intact.<br />
<br />
Because there are two houses on the property, it is grandfathered into the neighborhood as a duplex. The main house has been subdivided (presumably illegally, taking advantage of the "duplex" designation) into two apartments.<br />
<br />
A sheet of 1/8" ply has been nailed over the door frame separating the second bedroom from the rest of the house. On that side, there is a separate entrance from the side porch, a second kitchen and a bathroom so tiny that the vanity is hinged to flip down for access to the toilet. The former owner of the house was a pilot so we assume this is homage to the MD-80 he must have flown. Horrifying.<br />

I love the wavy images beyond
panes of old cold-flow glass. I love squeaky wood floors and clever built-ins.
I love the thought that someone occupied this same space decades before. At

contract on a nearly eighty year-old house. So begins our adventure restoring
and renovating this space for our family. </span><!--EndFragment--><br />

clients and web followers about all things design. The entries you will be
reading will feature a number of different design and construction topics as
well as a real-time day-to-day, project-by-project storyline (along with extensive
photos) of how a 1933/1936 home is being designed, renovated and expanded. The

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Although this home isn't exactly local and it's slightly more southern transitional than contemporary, we still thought it was an interesting subject for Contemporary Sarasota. Plus, there's no denying how great it would be to win this year's HGTV Dream Home on Kiawah Island, South Carolina! The network</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> describes this year's prize as a "low-country zen cottage". The house sleeps 10 comfortably and has ample party and entertaining space. The color palette really takes advantage of the natural surroundings and at times gets bold, which adds that perfect element of playfulness for a vacation getaway! To finish things off, the property is surrounded in a lush southern landscape, which can easily be enjoyed from the numerous terraces and outdoor deck spaces. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">We are pleased to share the long awaited unveiling of 320 Calle Miramar. This custom designed Siesta Key residence was created by Cheryl Gaddie of CG Designs. Architect, Mark H. Smith of Smith-Architects developed all plans, elevations, and renderings for the property. The home was built by Dan Gerdes of Gerdes Construction. All teams worked together seamlessly to create this contemporary coastal masterpiece, located just steps from Siesta Key beach. </span></div>

Although there are only a few codes or rules that monitor color choices on private homes, should personal preference be your only consideration?<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 508px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 354px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5687627200974078194" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3aUsDK4LpgjHjSf1lSgK_yEcmodI9zDQpc35Y6v-M7Vkdh82AiqEhMUExk3Ska_mIVW1h55Pg6vU6Wi1G_UFIFK55kfxyFPzazVRZgP44BjiUlaos6md0rKnAdWrobnziD1WAreJfS34/s320/Canal+Road.jpg" /> Home owners use different approaches when choosing colors for the exteriors of their homes. Mr. Hani Rihan chose to paint his home after purchasing in 2004. He went to the selections of Lowes Color Palettes and chose a suggested combination that he felt enhanced his home, landscaping and surrounding neighborhood. “I thought it was going to be ugly”, was Mr. Rihan’s first comment when he began painting. However after his completion, he appreciates the enhancement the colors have made in identifying the different architectural features.<br /><br />The controversy will always be personal preference of you and your neighbor when painting exteriors. Interior colors are your own personal space, neighborhoods are shared.<br /><br />So often we believe neutral is best, that it is risk free. However the beauty of color is appreciated by all. Well, maybe except for the neighbor who does not like color! </p><br /><p><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 514px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 341px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5687620841481012850" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhimm6mDBJwB9BCJ4AreQSgpmQuhql5CDe9FsoSLdC0jv9jGKkeuyH08-UBc995PqgDq9kXxK_hoPxhaRZyrfXlTzLCUqXm-E-oXMMMwawUAjwlKFKVRjNJ-ybWnLs6XCvCwoWzfYjXDhg/s320/both+houses+12_20.jpg" /> The houses have come a long way. The interior framing is completed, wires are being pulled... And now we are painting exteriors. It isn't easy attempting to tie in color with the neighborhood and still make the color palatable. So more often than not, I will blend with the colors of nature in the area.<br /></p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 499px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 276px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5687620215698919378" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiM_OihbJP7cHey62nR_oA7wi-yCZndfP9HnPXxIHH1pV80mqO7kTXjtseTIWhAt_leRTLom7rwwopBZEwKqfxGszIbRNli3QUbKOMZb0KquWIx0vBUHDI3KDkQc4-Rcmt8wr_orqmk8ig/s320/12_20+our+house+III.jpg" /> Architecture is a beautiful element of design. There are times when architecture needs nothing more than the brilliance of sunlight or the casts from colors of natural surroundings.<br /><br /><br />Before you enhance your home with color, take all aspects of architecture and design into consideration. If you choose not to consult with a professional, it is simple to access information online. There is a plethora of websites with good advice available.<br /><br /><br />Three key points to remember:<br />· Focus on a combination of 2-3 colors that enhance your architecture<br />· Light colors add size, dark colors create drama<br />· Borrow from the nature that created one of the most beautiful places in the world!<br /><br /><br /><br />Happy Holidays!!!CGhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10405902032790141209noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3595322650777914942.post-38181995421993315422011-10-10T21:25:00.009-04:002011-10-10T22:50:55.374-04:00The A+ Team<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3nzZJS_563dy0_Nj_uHdbESHA9S0qHuWggfNor9IGp7BXmuVV3rKycKOg7xeY7ThdWCGp2vxNDyqTfZ72BQzYHm-knWdte7sg07k60y-Uj8DjxtDolZ4eOk4amlPCFi4CC8Xb0nZzzRc/s1600/sign.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 218px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5662046209786959074" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3nzZJS_563dy0_Nj_uHdbESHA9S0qHuWggfNor9IGp7BXmuVV3rKycKOg7xeY7ThdWCGp2vxNDyqTfZ72BQzYHm-knWdte7sg07k60y-Uj8DjxtDolZ4eOk4amlPCFi4CC8Xb0nZzzRc/s320/sign.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div>The team began with three small businesses.

Or at least I do, especially when I do something out of the norm...which of course <strong>is</strong> my "normal" way of design :-)<br /><br />In the past 10 days, I have reviewed all interior products, priced all options and made those last minute critical decisions. Like deciding tile for a guest bath shower should not cost $5000.00... but remember, the less money you spend, the more work you have to do!<br /><br />You look at these two houses, at this phase, and you need to know what colors are going work for the roof tile, on the decks, color of stucco, on the trims and for the railings...<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTHCXZ1XZ7VC2WhQDSKEct2hd-bFC4ZSZnur1SpxNFFLJOb1zYYGVQ6-zCo1HVbHlqzXrhP7BgoiUtb1NqyJUdDEC5WdjREZYGkEVnFJd5pNVYahHRfsaIa4VZtGzTgiyteGjZndpWnBY/s1600/9_24+both+houses.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 413px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 306px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656855956926696482" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTHCXZ1XZ7VC2WhQDSKEct2hd-bFC4ZSZnur1SpxNFFLJOb1zYYGVQ6-zCo1HVbHlqzXrhP7BgoiUtb1NqyJUdDEC5WdjREZYGkEVnFJd5pNVYahHRfsaIa4VZtGzTgiyteGjZndpWnBY/s320/9_24+both+houses.jpg" /></a><br />Then you begin to contemplate how the colors of the landscape will affect the outdoor and indoor finishes. Regardless of years of training and experience, there is always the chance you are going to forget something that is important. Like where will the sun be hitting the surfaces inside and what shadows will that create? So first you go over everything on paper, and then you walk through it visually, a couple of times... Sometimes it becomes a little overhwhelming!<br /><br />The more contemporary home is the one on the back lot, 320 Calle Miramar.<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdoR_8mENRZxN0C_JdvcBGBIxMuVLIVmzBSqpKk-2zqyIZO3GT0cX1d1-7Yl_BCnmzxGpB-f-qNFD_ttgZWiQyLpXVaVM1uyrahXtrZgvZYkCeAbWsmBXyRaC_OfZq3e854e6hBITScHI/s1600/9_24+our+house.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 421px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 303px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656855585940983138" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdoR_8mENRZxN0C_JdvcBGBIxMuVLIVmzBSqpKk-2zqyIZO3GT0cX1d1-7Yl_BCnmzxGpB-f-qNFD_ttgZWiQyLpXVaVM1uyrahXtrZgvZYkCeAbWsmBXyRaC_OfZq3e854e6hBITScHI/s320/9_24+our+house.jpg" /></a> Interior finsihes are shelled concrete, steel beams for stair stringers, concrete block walls for the master shower and artisan crafted stainless steel cooking center in the kitchen. While doing research for another product, I found a reclaimed wood company called Centennial Woods. <br /></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 430px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 341px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656855786186411714" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiPTrK9wfIz_YNGNAf8dmBSC8GHcqqh7S2ydoUeYLGXZlJ-Wm-WH0Pb383D4Ig2JDi2PmuCMvvrqJxh4-WldyIMxq0FGbJJDaV57ivFOhtau2nOmSGOEsP-FZAg5H_MuZ-VDBPlaWaJPk/s320/0_24+finishes.jpg" /><br /><a href="http://www.centennialwoods.com/">http://www.centennialwoods.com/</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge4tfJOGClI7y8w_ts1n75Y2EX4PUmz1QarXllNxS_HfbmblyPMWU2GM-VxnpZY3Yrtpz1uw7S1lqT-pK3u9fyEkKJVU0fDb1s62D8xfqg8IKJqXeh0qDDhCLkoNxtCfqvVy2-SWl-SMA/s1600/floor"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 425px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 425px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656855381141102002" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge4tfJOGClI7y8w_ts1n75Y2EX4PUmz1QarXllNxS_HfbmblyPMWU2GM-VxnpZY3Yrtpz1uw7S1lqT-pK3u9fyEkKJVU0fDb1s62D8xfqg8IKJqXeh0qDDhCLkoNxtCfqvVy2-SWl-SMA/s320/floor" /></a><br />This company reclaims snow fence in Wyoming, remove the nails, and turns it into tongue and groove 3/4 wood floors, paneling and planking. In the midst of all the contemporary finishes, I have decided to use this reclaimed wood on the 2nd and 3rd floor. This is going to be a massive focal point with a lot of movement and in reality; most people would believe it belongs in a log cabin. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>However I believe I can use this wonderful green product and make an unexpected design statement. As strange as it may seem, I believe the remaing products will need to be extremely contemporary in order to make this work. I guess time will tell!! The moral of this story, good design means sometimes being fearful. But never be afraid!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div>CGhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10405902032790141209noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3595322650777914942.post-23185134271965532062011-09-23T09:00:00.002-04:002011-09-23T09:00:08.001-04:00CG Designs: Vendor Profile<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Here are examples of some of our favorite vendors, all of which are available through the Cheryl Gaddie Designs showroom.

Cost overruns, products purchased that don’t fit, sub contractors not showing up, product delays, a “forgotten” permit when needed, a paint color that isn’t what you expected….it goes on and on.</span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333333;">Before you make the decision to build, remodel or install a new kitchen/bath, it is important to consult with a professional. Most designers, architects and general contractors offer complimentary consultations. If you decide to do a “self managed project”, here are a few things to remember:</span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><ul><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333333;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">Begin from the bottom up – start with the foundation of the project. Know everything BEFORE you begin. Don’t make assumptions.</span></span></span></li><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333333;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">If you are decorating, begin with flooring, paint and lighting – lighting is extremely important! You are building a foundation for style.</span></span></span></li><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333333;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">Do not impulse-buy products because they are on sale. If they don’t fit, you have wasted time and money attempting to put a square peg in a round hole.</span></span></span></li><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333333;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">Know your options before you make a decision. Not every salesperson is trained in the product they sell. Take the time to do your research.</span></span></span></li><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333333;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">Review space plans for your project.

The school incorporated "green" design before people were thinking green. It had moveable glass walls that allowed cross ventilation. It had 8 foot wide concrete sunshades protecting the classrooms from the Florida sun. The school had light monitors in the hallways to allow the hot air to rise up, drawing in the cooler air under the sunshades through the classrooms. The light monitors also provided natural light to filter into the hallways making an incredibly pleasant learning environment...without air-conditioning! Unfortunately a narrow-minded school board followed the recommendation of an egocentric school superintendent and Riverview was demolished in 2009. We all must be on a constant vigil to preserve our architectural heritage.</span></span></span></div></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">

The lot was divided into two conforming sizes to allow for best use of space by building two single family custom homes. Both are private residences. Both have in-ground pools elevated to first floor level. Store front windows were specified in one home, a Nana door system in the other. Both designed to capture the beautiful outdoors. I love windows. No doubt I could survive in a glass house. Although the use of passive solar design is helpful, the most daunting of moments in our designs are when I realize I will be forced to cover some of those windows!</span></span></span></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZDo4vasNc_BS3XpjyIGxTwCb7Q017PiDU0XQnulkRNytfVl675OVugQJFA8PcKW7rDLDd8J_rOQBRucgBKnanExfbTH9pc19QPvbLKlIcpAH_PclILJNE1A_dv-1byKXKrBMXQOkBy9w/s1600/new+construction+sign.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 223px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZDo4vasNc_BS3XpjyIGxTwCb7Q017PiDU0XQnulkRNytfVl675OVugQJFA8PcKW7rDLDd8J_rOQBRucgBKnanExfbTH9pc19QPvbLKlIcpAH_PclILJNE1A_dv-1byKXKrBMXQOkBy9w/s320/new+construction+sign.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5646476615550683970" /></a><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333333;">Our teams of professionals understand that details are imperative to complete a structure that we admire and live in comfortably.</span></span></span></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpCbQSjsT0y0yPuJ1yJZwdH0HuwB5XQ7qzrNX60vFVEDg6ASRbmio_Vdh3jCXJrEht5weVuyzd6cSlSh-zQ37OiO-553eWEbfPMwalYHR8yLRFS5i9v07YqNrZbL9u1q_u1SCRUmq2jsg/s1600/Tom.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 241px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpCbQSjsT0y0yPuJ1yJZwdH0HuwB5XQ7qzrNX60vFVEDg6ASRbmio_Vdh3jCXJrEht5weVuyzd6cSlSh-zQ37OiO-553eWEbfPMwalYHR8yLRFS5i9v07YqNrZbL9u1q_u1SCRUmq2jsg/s320/Tom.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5646476284841278706" /></a><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333333;">Meet Tom, the most important person on the job!!

Sherwin did mine! and Benjamin helped out too. But, I plan on making a change and letting the "other" guys help me this design go-around. Yes, I am talking about wallpaper. I know, most of you think of the horrid paper of the latter days, with random shapes of varied colors with little designs going every which way. Or maybe your basic complementary color stripes with little pineapples running vertically throughout the paper. Nope! Wallpaper is so now! And your are probably thinking, in Florida? Yes, even in Florida. What doesn't get a little crazy with all of our moisture. There are so many wonderful textures! Yes, we can take the time to smooth our walls and add the correct kind of texture. Who isn't tired of our knock down. I know I am! Wall coverings add so much dimension, style and drama to a space. Think of small spaces that you may not have enough room to really display the right kind of art or accessories, add some wallpaper and you're done. Helps to save on the budget too. Guys, think of all the time saved from having to visit the boutiques to find that "perfect" accessory. Girls, think of it as the perfect dress for any occasion in that space. Now, go find the room in your home that you would like us to DO!</span></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><br /></span></span></div><div align="left"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><br /></span></span></div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKbEVRk5Ao75cZtIiyiOsM8GdSERREp17PxcDg8WrsWxN2z0Ix1d11xeDBDsB2pLvq-tHilgrceKFOzFUp9WNt6u_99Ta-0lbpqKRK3XN_5GLShEWJ3J59NgsplLPB6ItfHEVo_RzCkTs/s1600/blue+strip+horizontal.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

Both applications allow me to work with passionate people and ultimately assist them in facilitating their own realization of a dream.</span></span></span><span style="color:#467323;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#444444;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">I address Interior Design with an artistic approach. Each room is a canvas in which color and texture are the backdrop. When you enter a space, it should envelop you, not surprise you. When circumstances of life create a stressful environment, our peace may be achieved in the places where we dwell. Sometimes in order to achieve that serenity we need to modify our surroundings. Whether that change is to achieve better function, more comfort, or simply pure aesthetics, environmental change can be very rewarding. The attached photos are of my personal living space, where I spend equal parts in total relaxation mode as well as hosting friends and family when we entertain. Stay tuned for what's happening next in my personal world of design!</span></span></span><span style="color:#467323;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#444444;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">The purpose of this blog is to share the design process with our readers.
