Designer Brain.

I found these great images on Houzz by Coffee with an Architect. It may help explain to you why your designer is so weird. We just come by it naturally, or our Latteintakeus Caffiene Ventricals (that's E on the second diagram down y'all) are depleted and need to be refilled to the optimum 3/4 again. ;)

I love clever people.

This weekend was really great. I've been testing out a new schedule to prevent burn out and it's been working out great. Part of that schedule is taking Sunday off completely. No work at all on Sunday. So far I haven't made it the entire day, but even most of the day has been incredibly helpful to me, and my husband appreciates it too ;). 

I did something huge y'all! I can't wait to share. Probably in my next Day In A Life I'll share. 

Have a great week!

Quoting Designers: Jeffrey Bilhuber.

I'm a total sucker for silly memes with quotes. I love them. Silly and great. But what is really great is to hear quotes from other designers. We all have such wisdom, I love hearing about experiences and lessons learned.  

Jeffrey Bilhuber is an iconic American designer that has provided countless quotes and design quips. They're smart and on point. His clientele speak to his taste and wisdom.  

Decorating is about the the big picture. If you say, ‘I’d like a pink lamp,’ and I just go get a pink glazed ceramic lamp, you should fire me. What a decorator does is bring you a blue-and-white Delft lamp and say, ‘This would look perfect in a pink room.’

It’s a Herculean amount of work to deliver projects on time and on budget.

Great details whisper, never shout.

Clients bring their inspirations to me to move their ideas and their dreams forward. Historic inspiration is always influential but clients are the driving force. We can’t create a project without a client. Preferably one that is articulate, decisive, and trusting.

Someone with a point of view is rather chic. Someone focused, articulate, with personality, integrity, and honesty is enormously stylish. Oh, and glamor? To be true to oneself is powerfully glamorous.

Most new structures have a baseboard no higher than three inches- if one at all. I suggest making a much larger one. That can be as simple as installing a twelve-inch-high, one-inch-thick plank of wood all around the room.
