Add Some Spice!!!

Karen Menge, ASID — Thu, 11 Aug 2016 17:45:02 +0000

If you’re ready to add a bit of color to the exterior of your house, consider a unique color for your front door. These were examples I found in Charleston that really spice up these houses.

Fifty Shades. The Sequel.

Pam Plowden Rawson, ASID — Fri, 24 Jun 2016 02:50:37 +0000

Having just returned from this years trip, I am happy to report that Nantucket is just as blue and just as beautiful. A few years ago, I chronicled my honeymoon in Paris by exploring the many shades of green I happened to see at every turn. It’s not what I started out to do, it […]

I will really miss this house!

Karen Menge, ASID — Thu, 02 Jun 2016 05:00:13 +0000

As professional designers, we often work very closely with our clients in building or renovating their homes. We agonize over every decision for wiring, plumbing, wood trim, flooring, and tile as well as the “pretty” ones with fabric, wallpaper, furniture, and paint, as if they were our own. These houses become a part of us, […]

Using Artwork to Inspire a Design Scheme

Carol Hamilton — Thu, 01 Oct 2015 13:11:43 +0000

When I begin a room scheme, often I find inspiration from artwork the client loves. This particular framed watercolor of a Venice canal is not only beautiful, but also happens to have many colors that are popular this fall. It is a good starting point because the taupes, yellows, and greens can set a simple backdrop, […]

Turning a House into a Home

lhough — Thu, 24 Sep 2015 06:01:38 +0000

Many times we have clients approach us asking if we can create a room or scheme around a specific piece they have aquired. The piece can be an original painting from a recent trip, a collection of books, or unusual wall hangings. Either way, we strive to design the space so that it compliments our client’s pieces. One […]

What Colors Do You See?

lhough — Thu, 20 Aug 2015 02:56:08 +0000

On a recent family trip to the Canadian Rockies, I couldn’t help but notice the many beautiful colors around us. Red and white in the Canadian flag, blue in the glacial lakes, yellow, pink and purple in the flower beds, browns of every shade imaginable in the mountains. Color was everywhere. Towering around us were mountains covered in ice and […]

“Thank you, Dad”

Carol Hamilton — Thu, 18 Jun 2015 05:50:51 +0000

Recently, I finished reading the book, “The Art Forger” by Barbara A. Shapiro, and the memories it stirred up have been both a surprise and a gift. The story centers on the heist of millions of dollars of artwork, including an important Degas painting, from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, in Boston in March of 1990. My […]

Villa – Lasting Impressions

Carol Hamilton — Thu, 05 Mar 2015 06:10:30 +0000

At the beginning of every year, we like to revisit our website portfolio and design stories to update with our most recent work. We want to keep the content fresh, and so this year, we’ve added a new design story. Transitional Splendor. You may remember, we mentioned travelling to Dallas to furnish a Villa for […]

In Living Color

On a recent trip to D.C. I visited the Smithsonian Institute’s National Museum of Natural History where they were exhibiting the winners of the Windland Smith Rice International Photography Awards. The exhibit was called “Nature’s Best Photography” and it truly was breathtaking! What colors do you see in your everyday surroundings? When you think of […]

Fifty Shades of Green

Pam Plowden Rawson, ASID — Thu, 05 Feb 2015 03:00:02 +0000

“I hate the color blue.” “My husband says he wants no green!” Few people come to us without an opinion about color. The few ambivalent ones quickly find themselves drawn to certain colors throughout the design process. I find these color preferences fascinating and decided to do a little research. Did you know that babies begin […]
