I enjoy the collaboration with clients, and the challenge it brings to interpret their wishes into a great new space! Beside the design of the interiors and space planning, one of my favorite aspects of design, is to oversee the implementation of the plan. I’m always so excited about the creative process, and the happiness the finished space brings the clients I help. The outcome is most rewarding!
