As we start the new year, and look forward to a bright and prosperous 2011, the team at LRM Interior Design presents some of the things they are inspired to do around their home. Even as we design and furnish the homes and offices of our clients, we are mentally thinking: “Would that look good in my house?” Which is quite fun, as we have access to some of the best and most unique home decor providers in the world. Yes, the world is literally our oyster…so if any of these ideas tickle your fancy, you know what to do. Give us a call so we can give you a new home in the new year!

An example of Jan's inspiration
Jan Smith, Senior Designer, is always focused on the client. Her inspiration is definitely one she takes home with her—everything at her home, from the spare room down to the dinner table, is thought through to the last detail. “In 2011, I want to emphasize the importance of completing the room design to our clients,” says Jan. “Paint, wallcoverings and furnishings will only give you part of the design story, not the full picture. It is essential to complete the room or home with soft goods and accessories. A finished look is a layered look, and at LRMID we stress the importance of those final touches, which include art, accessories, window treatments, accent rugs, portable lighting…the list is as long as the imagination!” (read the rest of this post…)

This week, our “Inspiration” is to help you – to share the LRM Interior Design team’s collective expertise about the dos and don’ts of interior design. It’s true that design professionals make it look easy. We transform a drab room into something amazing with what seems like a few throw pillows and a new shade of paint on the walls.
But there’s a reason we took the time to go to interior design school, and, as with any type of creative industry or artistic pursuit, there is a certain amount of talent needed to be successful.
So it’s not as easy as it looks. We slave over color choice, we agonize over which chair would work best and we’ve arranged and rearranged everything in that room in our minds and on paper so many times it’s exhausting. (read the rest of this post…)
