I had a wonderful time as part of a Panel Discussion at the ICFF (International Contemporary Furniture Fair) at the Javitz Ctr. in NYC this past Sunday, May 17th. Myself and two other very accomplished Interior Designers spoke about and answered questions on the topic “How to Create Your Online Presence.” Lyndsey Thudin, Industry Marketing Mgr. for HOUZZ.com was the moderator.

The common element throughout is good design. There’s always a reason why an element is chosen for a certain place, whether it’s a colorful painting in a room or a specific fabric on a chair.
