I just created a Houzz account! Hooray! If you don't know what Houzz is (or Pinterest for that matter, as the two are closely intertwined), then it's time to crawl out from under your rock and go forth and explore the endless, timewarping design abyss that is Houzz. Seriously, it will suck you in if you aren't careful.
But aside from gazing at pretty spaces all day and day dreaming about our next home, I created a Houzz account so that I could network and collaborate with other artists and designers. Because there is nothing better for interior design clients, than knowing where to find custom, commissioned artwork for their design projects.
When commissioning an artwork piece, it is important to follow the design rules (that those lovely, wonderful interior designers are so great at doing!), and apply them to your artwork and surrounding decor. It's important to look at fabric textiles (pillows, throws, rugs, drapes, etc.), wall colors, upholstery fabrics and wood tones in the furniture, room lighting, fixtures, and all those other wonderfully inviting details and find artwork that can compliment those accents.
For example, you can take a fabric swatch from the drapes and throw pillows and find EXACT paint color matches to apply to your artwork commission. Have a bare, drab, boring space over the sofa? Small artwork won't cut it? Then commission a statement piece to go there! The options are endless.
Take the guesswork out of finding coordinating artwork for your room, and let me take care of that process! We can collaborate and build something truly you, truly unique, and truly coordinating with your interior design!
