What Great Design Is?

To create and make something beautiful is the highest form of living for me. Beauty is always the driving force, but if it doesn't serve as well as offer joy, peace and ease- then it’s a failure. 

This breakfast nook is from Traditional Homes.  The quote on the magazine shows that the function of the area is serving its purpose very well!!!  Love to see design when it is both beautiful and functional!

In lasting design- function precedes form.  Because good looks alone doesn't cut it- much like marring a beautiful woman with no sense of humor- Seriously…it quickly becomes a drag!  When designing- I strive for both function and form.

This adorable bed from Elle Decor is definitely beautiful and so functional with the storage, privacy, and fun.

Awesome, I wish you would go toe to toe w/ this clown I got an email about last night (or at least ruffle some feahrets). His name is Garret Lo Porto. He made a video about the bondage of the powers that be -so to speak, to inspire the gullible: wayseermanifesto.com, its all over Youtube etc. He then gives this manipulative, hard sales pitch claiming to be the little guy and just making ends maeet in order to join the movement you must donate $. People are falling hard! He is in fact the CEO of The DaVinci Affiliates Program among other Books/tactics to take peoples $$$, Oh and it really gets good in the link for those who cant afford it!
