....the designer must be able to see - make a concentrated effort to absorb the essence of the project. Seeing is a very difficult thing to do. Most people "look" at a lot of thing but never "see" anything. Looking is emotional; seeing is an intellectual process.

So many people arrange furniture in order to see what's going on outside. But why? The view isn't going anywhere.

I deeply believe that a beautiful decor can have a beneficial influence on our lives.

An interior designer must be able to clarify his intent keeping ever in mind that decorating is not a look, it's a point of view.

Make your home as comfortable and attractive as possible and then get on with living. There's more to life than decorating.

Beige is atmosphere. It's bisque, it's ivory, it's cream, it's stone, it's toast, it's cappuccino. It;s well, it's magic.

The one thing I never get involved with is selecting art or pictures for a client. This is a very personal thing. If the clients have pictures, I will hang them. When they do not own pictures I leave the walls blank.
