Philosophy
"Design is a process. Through a series of discovery questions, I help clients find their sense of style and meet their needs they may not have thought about. I want their space to be an extension of themselves. I take into consideration the different elements of design, color theory, and space planning to create a vibrant space that does not feel flat. I am a firm believer in the quote by Donald A. Norman:"
"Good design is actually a lot harder to notice than poor design in part because good designs fit our needs so well that the design is invisible, serving us without drawing attention to itself. Bad design, on the other hand, screams out its inadequacies, making itself very noticeable."
