The goal of my house make-over is not a beautiful design.
Sure, I want to tell the right story somehow and make it attractive. But it’s
just so clear that the point of my design work is two-fold: to
be as miserly as I can with the dollars I've allotted to the project, and to make sure that the flow and use of
the house is really transformed to comfortably hold and respect multiple
residents’ individual needs. That brings a different eye to the task of
interior architecture. It's space planning pure and simple, one that I dearly love. It’s the human element of dwelling design.
Yes, I adore choosing palettes and finishes that tell that story. But in this project, that's icing.
My success happens when the room works for groups of individuals that
all want to make a meal, whether they want to eat together or not….
