We have been a very fortunate team over the last year – we continue to manage interior decorating projects, large and small, and enjoy our clients just as much.
One major highlight last year was designing and decorating Chambers for a Supreme Court Justice, which was an experience of a lifetime. We were certain there would be no project rivaling this for many, many years to come. However, we are just beginning work on a home that has many design features based on one of my personal favorite movies of all time, “Something’s Gotta Give.” The movie easily stands on its own and is a favorite simply due to the chemistry between Diane Keaton and Jack Nicholson.
However, as a design professional, it’s impossible not to notice and be completely enchanted by the Hamptons beach house, which is the backdrop for much of the movie. The clean, crisp white wood cabinetry and trim, simple off-white drapery panels framing every window overlooking the ocean and the transistional, slipcovered furniture and casually-striped rugs translate into the feeling of one comfortable home.
So, imagine our delight when our VA-based clients purchased a lakefront home in North Carolina with similar architectural and design inspirations as the famous Hamptons home, and asked us to decorate it, with seasoned, Janet Aurora as lead designer. In addition to the interior, we will be paying special attention to the more than 3,000+ square feet of outdoor living space on the lake.
