If you're living a low-impact life, eating organically, limiting driving and such, it's easy to extend your eco-consciousness to your home. I am an interior designer with a passion for earth-friendly, budget-conscious interiors. I'm thrilled when I hear from someone that they've just realized their entire house can be an avenue for low-impact living! Whatever your walk of life, whatever your budget, I'm happy to work with you to create a green and gorgeous remodel or redesign.

If you're living a low-impact life, eating organically, limiting driving and such, it's easy to extend your eco-consciousness to your home. I am an interior designer with a passion for earth-friendly, budget-conscious interiors. I'm thrilled when I hear from someone that they've just realized their entire house can be an avenue for low-impact living! Whatever your walk of life, whatever your budget, I'm happy to work with you to create a green and gorgeous remodel or redesign.

I share information about renewable and low-toxic materials and finishes so that you can make kinder, more informed choices. I will not dictate style to you. Rather, I help you uncover and define your likes and dislikes, so you know the language to use when searching on-line or talking to retailers. I share my sources so that you don't need to pay me to go shopping on your behalf (although I LOVE to do this!).

I'm adept at editing and culling and designing on the fly. If you visit my website you'll see how I can take an orange ceiling and turn it into an asset! This speedy, make-do approach can be very rewarding if you're looking for maximum effect with a minimum budget. Working with me is fun because I'm down-to-earth, approachable, and love interacting with people.

If you are looking for ways to make your home, however large or small, more beautiful and more functional, I'd love to hear from you. If you aspire to do this without placing an undue burden on other people or the ecosystem, you are one of the people who inspire my work! [less]
