My preference in table settings is to use natural elements such as flowers, greenery, and elements of wood, metal and of course ceramics. Read more about Tama's love for setting a table and creating a beautiful gathering.

In this post, Tama shares recent updates made to her home. “We have touched and replaced each surface at least once since 1998. The gallons of paint that we have used, my husband jokes, has reduced our interior square footage. He. may be right.”

The consultation is one of my favorite parts of my work. It is the first in-person meeting with the potential client and our first eyes on the house itself. I like that we go in relatively cold, so it is a very visual experience and really exciting to see what all needs to be addressed. I sometimes feel like a design detective; putting together what we see, what the client sees and trying to figure out just where we are all going.

We thought it would be fun to post some before and after images of some of our recent interior design and home renovation projects in the Sonoma County area.

Life around here has been really busy with on-going projects, new clients, meetings and planning. I have not had as much time as I would like to put towards curating new finds. But, I have had a bit of time to put together my current go-to paint favorites. Benjamin Moore is my paint of choice. They have a lovely selection of historic and traditional colors. Their paints tend to be the more classic, grayed colors, which suit my design style quite nicely.
