Love my Right Brain :)

When I was struggling in school trying to focus on math and feeling hopeless, I wish I would have seen these images by Mercedes Benz!

I can relate! :)

 Love it!

Have a great weekend!!

Downtown Austin Project Status

It was so fun to come home to Texas and see the exciting progress of this clients home.  They really have been moving fast and it is always so great to see the walls go up on something you have been staring at on paper.

This client worked with their architect to design a classic Saltbox style home.  The design keeps in line with the historic neighborhood guidelines as well as her East Coast upbringing.

Their beautiful tree lined street is so dreamy.

The back of the home will have a screened in porch and a separate garage

So far we have selected all of the lighting, mill work, and bathroom/kitchen tile details.  We have a great start on furniture, paint and fabrics.  It wont be long now!  Move in is scheduled for early January.  I will post more progress shots as I get them.

BDG Update

Geez, my last post was in May?!  Writing a blog post has been on my mind but to be honest, I just haven't had a chance!

We moved out of our rental home and have been living in California until school starts in Texas.  We have been moving around to my Mom's house, staying at friends and hotels....living the gypsy life.  

The minute we arrived in California I got to work with my Cali clients.

BDG update...

We have been working on a very large project completely changing everything in a home that's just over 6,000 sq. feet.  

This is an iphone shot of some of the materials we are using!

We are warming things up in this home.  

Rich woods, chocolate brown, navy blue with touches of chartreuse.  

 We were in need of updating our upholstery swatches from the manufacturer we use so a trip to the Los Angeles based warehouse was a must.  Our visit turned into a factory tour to see new product!

We had a great lesson on the tufting process.

This Ah-mazing sofa takes a week to tuft by hand.  We were mesmerized by this work of art!

Even with my work load I am trying to sneak in as much time as I can enjoying summer with my family!  Our trip to Las Vegas has been a highlight.  Who knew Vegas was such a fun place to take kids?!

I hope you are all enjoying your summer!  More updates to come!
