New Year Reflections: Artful Interiors

As we step into the new year here in the Bay Area, there's a crispness in the air that feels just right for fresh beginnings. This past year has been one to remember for our studio, especially with our participation in the 45th Annual San Francisco Decorator Showcase.

I knew I had to be a part of this particular showcase when they revealed that the selected home was the same one I had toured as a student at 20 years old, with my mother and grandmother as our annual Mother’s Day tradition. Sometimes, you have to embrace the full-circle moments life provides you!
