A recent request by a client for a Hollywood Glam room, for her teen, finds me having lots of fun. This dramatic, dressy look is characterized by mirrored furniture, bold colors and prints, sleek and shiny finishes, lush fabrics and, of course, some bling! Whenever I start a project like this, I am always inspired by those that have blazed the trail before me. With a big salute to the designers of the following rooms, let's look at some great ideas.
 |
| Tufted furniture works with this look because it is all about luxury. |
 |
| These candle sconces from Z Gallerie are perfect for adding the "bling" factor |
 |
| Crystal chandelier, fur bench, flokati rug and curving headboard make this work |
 |
| Bold graphic pattern and fabulous tufted headboard scream GLAM! |
 |
| Mirrored furniture like this vanity are a staple of this look. |
 |
| This mirrored bed from Julian Chichester is gorgeous! |
 |
| This tufted love seat would make a perfect addition to the foot of the bed. |
 |
| Metallic wall paper in a bold graphic is just the thing for teen glamour. | |

This is going to be a fun project. I will be sure to share the results with you in a few months, when it is done.

The following pictures are artwork from some of my favorite local artists. The fabulous thing about these folks is that they will do commissioned pieces especially for you! Enjoy...
The following pictures are from the October High Point Furniture Market.
These are some of the showrooms and displays that I thought were terrific.
A designer is as good as her team...
Every designer relies on a team of people to help execute her design vision. I have worked very hard to assemble a top notch team of craftsmen and professionals to rely on for excellence in execution and customer service. I have nick named them "The "A" Team". This name is so appropriate because this group brings their best effort to each task. There are many folks out there that will give you adequate, we strive for exceptional.
The following pictures will introduce you to some of the work done by these guys...
This week...
This week, I am working on two interiors that are either on or are near Lake Wylie, SC. Both homeowners are interested in incorporating a coastal "vibe" into the design for their homes. Working on two homes with the same design direction has never happened in my business before. It will be fun to see just how differently we approach each home. They will be as different and unique as their homeowners and we will be sure to include some after pictures in about 3 or 4 months!
