inspiring ideas

• Having sound effects with babbling water fountains helps to create a relaxed environment-both exterior/interior

• Selective paint colors for various walls to stimulate the "Five Senses." This helps to promote appetite, passionate entertaining, and relaxation where opulent feelings occur

• Exposure to dramatic colorful lighting can have a measurable affect relating to mood

• Updating details such as handles, knobs, and faceplate accessories will make a significant difference and a lasting impression

• For many people, listening to music is important. Having a surround sound installed is highly recommended. That is perfect for entertainment, which creates a theatre experience. Surround sound systems will create a more immersive viewing and listening experience for movies, music, and gaming

• Behind your TV console, create a glass tile wall or similiar, with full spectrum lighting. This creates a stunning backdrop while enjoying a visual color contrast

• Mirror installations-the larger the mirror the more light it will reflect-creates a beautiful illusion of a much larger space

• Carving out outdoor spaces creates a peaceful, retreat area.  Features include, seating/dining areas, fire pits, grills, lighting, and decorative water elements. Having stepping stones or gravel leading to a garden area is also a nice addition

• By getting elements in your life more organized in all areas, often you will feel less stressed and empowered

Having an "eye" comes before anything else. This is the foundation    of  being a Decorator. Creative vision is my dominant sense.
