High design blurs the line between everyday function and artistic expression.
Think of a sweeping marble staircase that serves as both a centerpiece and a pathway, or a sculptural home bar that doubles as a conversation piece. These elements are not just practical; they elevate a space into something truly exceptional. For those seeking homes that reflect this unique blend of art and utility, we can help find properties where high design is front and center.
Whether it's a custom kitchen with avant-garde fixtures or a living room featuring bespoke furniture, I have the expertise to connect you with homes that inspire both daily living and aesthetically pleasing design.

The NAR settlement brings important changes to how commission fees are handled in real estate transactions, focusing on transparency and clarity.
Previously, commission fees were often bundled or unclear, leading to confusion for both buyers and sellers. Now, Realtors will be required to clearly outline their fees upfront, ensuring clients understand exactly what they are paying for.
This change allows us to offer greater clarity in fee structures, eliminating surprises and helping to build stronger relationships based on trust. Buyers and sellers will be better informed, with a clearer breakdown of costs and services provided, allowing for a smoother and more transparent real estate process.

Holiday entertaining is all about creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere where your guests feel relaxed and festive.
Here are some tips to elevate your holiday gatherings:
1. Set the Mood with Lighting: Use soft lighting like candles and string lights to create a cozy, inviting ambiance. Dim overhead lights and let warm, glowing lights do the work.
2. Signature Drinks: Serve a holiday cocktail or mocktail to add a festive touch. Consider spiced cider or a cranberry-infused cocktail that ties into the season.
3. Interactive Food Stations: Set up DIY food bars like a hot cocoa station, charcuterie board, or a make-your-own dessert bar. This makes it fun for guests and lightens the hosting load.
4. Seasonal Décor: Incorporate natural elements like pine branches, dried oranges, or berries. A simple, elegant tablescape using seasonal greenery can make your space feel festive without being overwhelming.
5. Music & Entertainment: Craft a playlist that fits the holiday vibe or add a fun activity like a holiday trivia game to keep guests engaged.
Creating a memorable holiday gathering is about balancing comfort with thoughtful details that make the night feel special for everyone.

Adding a bold area rug is one of the easiest and most impactful ways to transform a room.
A well-chosen rug introduces vibrant color, texture, and style, instantly giving any space a refreshed look. It can anchor a seating area, define open-concept spaces, or simply add warmth and personality to a room. Whether you prefer geometric patterns, rich textures, or deep, saturated hues, a bold rug ties together existing décor and brings cohesion to your design.
For home sellers, incorporating a striking area rug during staging can draw attention to a space’s potential, helping buyers envision themselves living in it. It’s a quick and affordable update that delivers maximum effect.
