Southern Studio Interior Design

A kitchen I recently completed is featured in the June/July issue of Living in Style magazine, distributed in today’s News and Observer.  It’s always an honor to have a project selected as being worthy of publication.  This article, in particular, was a lot of fun because it includes “how-to” tips and product resources.  Although it was new construction (for clients who have great taste), the process of pulling all of the individual pieces together on any project is always a challenge.  In the end, however, the attention to detail pays off with fabulous results.

Do you want to create your own dream kitchen?

Inspired by Living in Style, Southern Studio Interior Design is offering SPECIAL RATES for a limited time on KITCHEN DESIGN CONSULTATIONS.

Are you overwhelmed by the selections of cabinetry, countertops, tile, flooring, plumbing, appliances, lighting, hardware, and more?  Why not ask for help from someone experienced in creating award-winning kitchens?  As a designer, my job is to help clients navigate through the many choices and create the best combination of products that meet the needs of the family (and at the same time pay attention to the budget)!  So, whether it’s a new home, a complete remodel, or even a mini-remodel, feel free to give me a call to schedule a brainstorming consultation.  I promise you’ll be glad you did!

Last week, I had the pleasure of attending the ASID Carolinas Spring Conference in Greenville, South Carolina.  It was a great experience on so many levels.  First, I had no idea that downtown Greenville, SC was so beautiful!  

As co-chair of our local ASID design community, I attended a training session designed to brainstorm new and creative ideas for our Chapter.  I was fortunate to meet many other ASID volunteers from across the Carolinas! 

A few of my fellow ASID Carolinas Design Community chairs Sherrerd Hartness from Greenville, SC, Lauren Russell from Mount Pleasant, SC, and ASID Carolinas Board Member Duval Acker. 

Friday afternoon was spent listening to a few fabulous and inspiring speakers.  First, was Lloyd Princeton of Design Management Company.  He provided unique and thought-provoking insight into the business of interior design.  He sparked some creative ideas that have had me thinking ever since!  The second speaker of the afternoon was Michelle Pollack, a well-known children’s designer from Charleston, South Carolina.  A special thanks to the ASID Carolinas leadership for organizing the conference, especially Chapter President Emily Walser.

Not only was the conference awesome, I had the added bonus of visiting with my dear friend, Amy Elliott.  The highlight was getting a tour of the city in the middle of fierce thunderstorms AND sharing a great bottle of wine and sushi while catching up.  Life doesn’t get any better…..thanks Amy!
