Featured at Fall 2022 High Point Market was this over-the-top extravagantly designed sofa with leopard fabric embedded with 2.4 million cut crystal stones and a brushed brass frame. It was shown at the premier of Eichholtz’s new collaboration with German fashion designer Phillip Plein. Meeting the designer was quite an experience! There in front of a large crowd I was encouraged by the sales representative to take a seat on the Icon sofa. I felt awkward but thought, “Why not?” […]

He claimed, “Decorating is about making memories.” I wholeheartedly agreed as I have inspirational memories from my childhood visit to the Grand Hotel, […]
My clients wanted to feel like they were on vacation at home, so we designed their main bath remodel to resemble a 5-Star Hotel. We found the mirrors that are used in high end hotels. They are perfect for applying make-up, can be dimmed for ambiance and include a backlight feature as a night light. The sink wall is a unique tile installation that extends to the ceiling and reaches wall to wall. The flat natural stone pebble tiles create […]

Then we added new lighting and fans. The new backsplash ties […]
