Her Style:
If you want to describe her style; it would be modern and sexy with a splash of colors. She is very much in tune with the life style of her clients. She is quickly able to translate your ideas and your life style, and infuse them into a space. Her colors are very sensual and can be strong if you want to. She brings energy into a room just by her choice of colors and material. She likes to give some tension to a room to raise the energy level, and still creates a flawless sense of comfort.
