Transformative Power of Art

Below is a guest post about what I will call ‘the power of art’.

S Interior Design uses a generous definition for the word art. We believe that art should make you smile when you look at it.

The key is in the presentation—don’t expect a poster thumb tacked to the wall to be pleasing to the eye. Invest in the proper mat board and framing and you will be amazed at what can happen to your child’s painting from 5th grade. Continue reading

Optimizing Natural Light In Your Home

When I got asked if I would enjoy a guest blog post on the subject of Natural Light I immediately said YES! I am a firm believer in the power of light and how it impacts how a room looks and feels, and often say to my clients that we need to leverage natural lighting in our design work together. Of course living and working in perpetually sunny Arizona brings great options to work with natural light. So assess your home and see where you can install a Solar Tube or get rid of heavy window coverings and let in some of nature’s bounty—LIGHT. Continue reading

It’s Time—–Your Home Needs a Make-over Today

Another guest blog post to share with you! An interesting point of view on the subject of when is the ‘right time’ to do some make-over work in your home. A lot of us procrastinate because we are over whelmed or even scared to make changes to our home environment. I am working with a client who read in her journal from January , 2010 about what she wanted to do to her space and had put off for over a 1 1/2.

Yes, she is a bit scared to finally start making the changes she has thought about for so long. I am guiding her and providing a design plan that she is comfortable with. So, don’t put it off any longer, dive in or slowly put a foot in the water. You may find out that if FEELS GOOD! Continue reading
