Just as a picture is created by adding a dab of paint at a time, the best arrangements are created a step at a time, with pauses so you can step back and see the overall effect.

We must occasionally remind ourselves of our brief visit on this planet. Shouldn't we try to express ourselves clearly, make a personal stamp on our environment, and pay attention to the details that make the difference?

There are two things that make a room timeless: a sense of history and a piece of the future.

Decorating is a footnote to real life for me, a means to an end: Living well.

All the necessary elements of a room should not arrive on installation day. Room should always be left for the things we will acquire...the objects we cannot live without.

Decorating is like math, a game of adding and subtracting.
