Miami: Art Basel & Design Miami, An Interior Designer’s Guide
As an interior designer that works across the United States, I am typically only in Miami during Art Basel & Design Miami. I typically go for material inspiration, with clients to select art and to see vendors and friends.

Many of the galleries have parties for their collectors.
Playing with Scale in Interior Design
Scale is a fundamental principle in interior design that can greatly impact the overall aesthetic of a space. Understanding and mastering scale is essential for creating a harmonious and visually appealing environment. Scale in interior design refers to the size and proportion of objects in relation to one another and the space they occupy. It is a fundamental principle that can greatly impact the overall aesthetic and functionality of a room. Understanding scale allows designers to create harmonious and visually pleasing compositions. It involves carefully selecting furniture, artwork, and accessories that are appropriately sized for the space and each other. By playing with scale, designers can create a sense of balance, highlight focal points, and create a sense of drama or intimacy in a room. It’s important to note that scale is not just about size, but also about how objects relate to each other and the surrounding environment.

Interior Design, A Public Consensus on Beauty
“I think the single worst thing that ever happened to beauty is this idea that it’s in the eye of the beholder. This is not true.

We find the colors that people like to wear the most are typically the colors they love to live in. Color plays an important role in interior design, affecting everything from how the space looks to how we feel in it.

So whether you are looking to add color to your home or just learning more about interior design, here’s a rundown of everything you need to know about color for interiors.
Color Theory – Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall
Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall. People’s complexions fall under one of these categories. I find the colors that people like to wear the most are typically the colors they love to live in. I apply this principle and one other color selection analysis for my interior design clients. When designing for a couple I take both of their palates into consideration in their spaces.

The Ceiling is the Fifth Wall
I find that most people forget to even think about the ceiling. In the 16th century designers always heavily considered the design of every wall including the ceiling. Think about it, how boring would the Sistine Chapel be without the designer requesting Michelangelo do the ceiling?
