Are <strong>the</strong>re any current trends or styles<br />
that you see as being more <strong>West</strong><br />
Coast‐oriented?<br />
Yes, lots <strong>of</strong> layering <strong>of</strong> neutrals and<br />
textures, with incorporation <strong>of</strong> vintage<br />
textiles and Turkish rugs. I’m also<br />
seeing and using a lot <strong>of</strong> nubby textured<br />
slipcovers while throwing in a good<br />
mid‐century modern piece...basically my<br />
personal style, LOL.<br />
“I LOVE A GOOD TURKISH RUG,<br />
UNREFINED AND WARM WOOD<br />
TONES, IMPERFECT POTTERY AND<br />
FOUND OBJECTS. I ALSO LOVE<br />
INCORPORATING VINTAGE PIECES<br />
AS A NOD TO THE PAST.”<br />
How would you describe your signature<br />
style?<br />
For my business, I would say that we<br />
don’t have a signature style that we force<br />
on clients. We like to keep our portfolio<br />
showing a wide array <strong>of</strong> our capabilities<br />
and styles. My staff designers and I all<br />
have different personal styles and our<br />
job as a designer to our clients is to get<br />
into <strong>the</strong>ir head and not force our personal<br />
style on <strong>the</strong>m. But I can say that my<br />
personal style is more <strong>of</strong> a California cool<br />
and comfortable aes<strong>the</strong>tic with layers <strong>of</strong><br />
texture and small doses <strong>of</strong> pattern.<br />
