Interior Design Lite

In working with the website Thumbtack I noticed, that more people with average income  seek

professional guidance with their  interior design project. If you are reading this post, you must

be interested as well. I am so happy to see, that you realize, style has more to do with creativity

than with loads of money.

Please check out my interior design  page on www.thumbtack.com.

Thank you for your time.

Interior Design Find at Sunnyvale Auctionhouse

May 7, 2011 by Magdalena Bogart | No Comments

Wandering around the auction house this morning with my interior designer eyes wide open I found this signed original Thomas Moser Wing Settee in fantastic condition. Solid Cherry wood curved armrests, wood polish to satin perfection,  4 ” thick cushions, which need recovering, very comfortable sitting due to its gently cantilevered back. This is craftsmanship at its best.

Price for a brand new one is $5,000  while this one is available for $ 850

Call me, if you want it

Wonderful sculptural 2-seater

For example Imagine your sofa and chairs slip covered in a white or cream linen, a bright red Tabouret or Hourglass side table by BUNGALOW5 on either side, find a bunch of throw pillows in a fabric, which has this red and other colors in it. Add green plants as the opposite to red and you created a stylish and colorful vignette .

A Splash of Color

Chest of Drawers

How about the other way around? A white or black bed and two of these chest of drawers on either side and a headboard upholstered with a big and bold  Marimekko fabric, crisp white linen with a couple of red patterned throw pillows Add a red carpet.

What a fun space to wake up to every morning. Red gives you energy.

Live beautifully and enjoy the beauty in every moment.

SPRING into Action

SURROUND YOURSELF WITH THE FEELING OF SPRING
Don’t you love it, when the days are lighter, the sun brighter, the air warmer? Spring is the promise of summer. We stretch and throw down the winter blankets. We take deep breaths and feel so energized.

And we want to start Spring Cleaning – or maybe not.

Dear Design Enthusiast,

Welcome to my first blog post. I am very excited about the beginning of a journey, which includes you. You are obviously interested in living gracefully.

I want to supply valuable ideas, tips and stories for you and I encourage you to give me feedback, when you agree or disagree on something.

What are the burning questions you have for an interior designer? What would you like to find out from a design professional? Ask me all the questions you did not dare to ask yet…

The foundation of a great design project is the relationship between client(s) and designer.
I like what one of my coaches Terri Taylor says about it. It is so true…
