Start From the Ground Up

Confronted with a blank room, clients often don’t know where to start.  There’s an adage in interior decorating that suggests beginning with a rug.  Though there is no real rule here, selecting a gorgeous rug can easily inspire a color scheme, style, or mood for an entire space, making the selection of fabric and furniture significantly easier.  So let yourself fall in love with one of these beauties, then work your way up from there.
