About
Everyone has a story…
I bring yours to life!
What makes up your story? It’s your interests, your sense of style, the things that make you happy, the places you’ve been, your background, your legacy, your journey.
As the only Interior Designer with a professional screenwriting background, I am uniquely qualified to help you tell the story of you… in your home.
Here’s how it works…
1. Start with the end in mind – In screenwriting, I start with the end in mind. We decide how you want the story to end.. what will happen to the main character, will they ride off into the sunset, will they live happily ever after?
With my design clients… we also start with the end in mind. We design and decide how we want the room to feel, what we want it to look like, what part of your story do we want to tell. I envision my client’s homes already finished before I ever start the design process.
“Know your ending before you know your beginning.”
2. Character Development: Each character in a screenplay contributes something to the overall story. And so it goes with each element in a room. Every piece contributes to the overall feel, purpose and style in a room. Therefore, every element must be carefully considered and well thought out before including it in the “story” of your room.
3. Focus: Start with the main character first.. then develop the other characters around him/her. We select the focal point of the room – fireplace, the view, the big screen TV and we build the design around that focal point. Each surrounding piece in your room supports the main focal point.
4. Act I, Act II, Act III: Just like in a screenplay, when designing your room, there are specific steps that must be performed in a specific order. For example… concept development, drawings, renderings, finish selection, fabrication, installation, etc. To produce the absolute very best results in your home, these steps or “Acts” must not be taken out of order.
5. The End – Happily Ever After: This is where everything comes together. You’ve arrived at the end, just like on the hero’s journey… the character rides off into the sunset. You have your beautiful room, home, project to enjoy for years to come.
