Technology has changed us all. I still remember when I used a pencil and tracepaper to do my designs. Now my office uses the most up to date drafting programs. Social media has also transformed the way I do business and share and connect with clients, and people who just love good design.

My clients used to tear our images of dream kitchens or furniture they loved, now they send me a link to their Pinterest Board. Pinterest essentially is a Virtual Pinboard. It lets you organize and share all the beautiful things you find on the web. Browsing pinboards is a fun way to discover new things and get inspiration from people who share your interests.

In this blog, I wanted to share Design Connection, Inc., Pinterest finds with you. Click on the images to learn more about them.

As an interior designer I am always looking for new ways to give my clients storage but in a pleasing way. We love how much can be stored in this cabinet!!! Howard Miller Sonoma Armoire Wine Cabinet.

We are firm believers that a staircase update is worth it’s price. Here is a great before and after picture we found on Pinterst. Design Connection, Inc. has done many stair case updates and the clients have always been thrilled with the outcome.

Many people feel that wallpaper is outdated. But I am here to tell you that there are many beautiful ways to incorporate wallpaper into your home. This jewel of a Powder Room was created by Design Connection, Inc. using a unique light reflective Silver Metallic Snakeskin Wallpaper. A Crystal Ceiling Light Fixture & Crystal Sconces With Drum Shades accent this small but dramatic Powder Room.

The bed is the focal point of a master bedroom. I usually begin my design by selecting the style and colors of the bed and then use the furniture, art, window treatments to enhance the space.

The hood in a kitchen is a focal point and there are many opportunities to make it pop. We love this beautiful gold hood!

If a home update, new kitchen, or new furniture is part of your futire plan, then give us a call. We offer complimentary in-office consultations.
