Q: What is the most common problem people have
in decorating their home?
A: When people are decorating their
homes they often times have a problem focusing in on
their style. Being a global society, we are over
exposed to all kinds of cultural influences that
create style. Some styles compliment others
naturally, and others are not meant to be put
together. When using different styles, you must
be mindful that it is tastefully done. |

|
Q: Is there a difference between a decorator and
a designer?
A:
Yes. An interior
decorator can help you plan and arrange the
colors, furnishings, and decorative scheme of a
room. An interior designer is qualified to
develop and prepare non-structural interior
plans and specifications. Many states now have
licensing to qualify interior designers. |

Q: Is wallpaper out of style?
A:
Wallpaper is definitely not out of style.
Today's wall coverings go beyond just paper.
Precious metals, grasses, opulent veneers, and
exotic bamboo are innovative designs that bring
the world of natural beauty to any interior. |
 |
|
Q: When starting from scratch decorating a room,
should you match the furniture to the wall color
or the other way around?
A:
It
is easier to start with your upholstery fabrics
first. Using today's technology, any paint color you
wish can be mixed to compliment the fabric. |

|
|
Q: Are there "safe" colors that will never go
out of style?
A:
Yes, there are. Anything neutral; (such as black, white, brown or
grey) are always good ground colors. Burgundy,
navy blue and forest green are colors that have
stood the test of time and are always easy to
find. Colors such as orange,
purple or teal are trendy and may be be too strong to live
with over a longer period of time. |

Q: What is the most important thing to remember
when decorating your home?

Our homes are a reflection of who we are. When
you are decorating, allow your personality, and
inner beauty to be reflected in your choices.
Develop a sense of harmony, peace and identity
that flow with your choices. |

designer?

consultant basis, with no purchase is about $75
per hour. The wealth of knowledge designers
bring in helping you make wise choices can
translate into huge savings when costly mistakes
are avoided. |

|
Q: How do I know if I need the services of an
interior designer?
A:
Interior designers enhance your sense of style.
The designer brings together your ideas of
comfort, color, shape, value and beauty to
create your own style. Designers use multiple
resources which allow you to choose and define
your own look. |
