There are few women as fabulous, fun and full of life as this one. Having designed for her before, she had asked me to go house-hunting with her - such an honor. This home was deeply personal as it represented her finally breaking free and finding herself again. Things were really 'looking up' for her and that concept became our inspiration, both literally and figuratively. So we painted every ceiling in her home a different color! We translated her happiness into vibrant colors in her home that spoke to her femininity and hope. And in the process, every space was designed just for her - beautiful, sophisticated and stylish, but oh-so-welcoming and comfortable. Like a smile that reaches the eyes on an incredibly beautiful, confident woman and mother.
