What field of design are you most interested in?

What is the best decorating advice you can offer someone?

Only listen to yourself; the people whose advice you are seeking only think of themselves and their own desires when they answer your questions, you are the only interested party.

Favorite book would be on Jean Michel Frank, magazine would be AD and Elle Deco and site, of course, First Dibs.

Peace of mind!!! And that varies wildly from person to person, you only have to hope that the person sharing your life has the same desires...

Definitely linen!

How often should you update your bedroom?

There is no recipe; I changed the wall fabric last year, I think it has to do with how you feel, it might be that for reasons of comfort you should never change your bedroom...
