It's All About Me

Design is a series of transitions.  In the beginning we seek approval, fear criticism, and seek new opportunities.  We hope that we will be seen as creative creatures making the world more beautiful one room at a time.  Often those close to us take what we do for granted on so many levels that they do not realize the impact we have on their lives through their environments until left to their own devices.  Take my mother for example, after finishing 4 years of college and spending 5 figures on my education, (even back in the 70's) she still wanted to do her own home and then have me come in and fix all the mistakes.  My father just shook his head in disbelief, followed by a couple of expletives.

Much has changed in design since those early days.  Technology, new building requirements, sensitivities to all groups of people, and growth.  The Interior Design industry grew so rapidly that specializing became a new focus for individuals entering the field.  That brings me to the name of my Blog, "Design Cents".  I pride myself in being able to specialize in the art of recreating cost prohibitive rooms affordably.  Come spend a little,...or a lot with me.
