Great architecture is more than a physical thing, it is a spiritual thing. Great architecture, like great art, does something to the soul, it touches the heart in some deep and profound way. ~ Frank Lloyd Wright

As a child I loved designing and decorating Barbie houses. I then would sketch my dream house(s). What the outside might look like and then the inside and draw the furniture placement. In the back of my mind, I thought about being an architect or an interior designer. Then in college, I soon realized algebra and and geometry were not my favorite subjects. My love for the elements of design are still felt. Sitting with the kids and building with Lincoln Logs or Legos is great and sometimes surprising what you can create. I can get lost in a great home magazine too!

Our homes, our businesses should reflect us and make us feel good when we walk inside. Achieving this can be hard, but so rewarding. Styles come and go, but the core elements of your personality remain the same. Make your home, your office, your life reflect you. Trust your style.
