New house projects

December was a more fruitful sales month for me, so I decided to use my commission to start an interior design project for our house!

In mid January, I hired a well-known interior designer referred by a friend of ours. Before I met the designer, I wasn't sure if she would take on this work, since her projects are mostly in the bigger scale that includes architecture design and construction management. After I met her, I really liked her personality, her professionalism, and most of all, what sold me was her pragmatic suggestions/ideas after seeing our house. With her decades of experience, she constantly finds ways to help us safe money and make sure that we are getting the biggest bang for our buck.

We started the paint job last week, and it was done in 2 days. Though we did not paint too much of our house, I still thought her team was extremely efficient. Some of the main projects include an uplift of our guest bathroom with new tiles and unique wall covering, a contemporary build-in hutch for our kitchen, the "dress-up" of our dining area with a gorgeous mirror, sideboard and a rug, as well as painting of our master bedroom. We will also put a styled rug and some art paintings in the living area. Her vision is so that we can bring everything together, especially in the main floor, with colors, accents and arts.

The completion of everything will probably take a few months because I want to add things little by little, and not all at once. But I can't wait to see the results and will post before/after pictures when available!
