Is there a more negative sounding word in the english language than 'customer'? WE DON'T USE THE WORD CUSTOMER! We associate ourselves with people, with friends. We do business with the kind of people whose home below, represents to them their dream home, that they worked hard all their lives to purchase. They want for themselves and their entire family (get well soon grandma, it's Christmas), what all of us want. A warm, loving, beautiful home that they can take pride in, not for their neighbors, not for their friends, but for themselves. A moment of achievement, that took a lifetime to accomplish.
   When clients like this wonderful couple, ask us to make their dream home even more beautiful, it is a tremendous responsibility we take very seriously. Of course if they were considered just customers, then we can sell them anything and who cares what happens? They TRUST us to do the right thing by them. And we will.

First room, kitchen and dinette area. How do we top a copper leaf backsplash? We don't. We create a square dining table with a multi color wood inlay to coordinate all the kitchen colors. A square shape allows 8 people to dine at once. Then we two tone 8 metal chairs and 2 bar stools, to reflect the copper and sienna colors of the room. We could not top the kitchen, but we believe we enhanced it.

Now, the room off the entrance. Client wants a dressy, elegant room. We designed a curvy, shapely sectional coordinating three fabrics, all in various shades of cream. A coordinating 'fan' chair, is added for the corner. Then, the highlights. A 'Pinnacle Award' winning custom area rug to fit the contours, and colors of the upholstery. Finally, three custom window treatments done in a beautiful combination of creams and taupes, intermixed with metallic threads. We call this look 'elegant contemporary', and this is our passion!

The family already had a dining room set, and a window treatment, but needed the room updated and brought to life. After seeing their kitchen, and living room designed by Pia , they knew they needed her for the dining room.

First, a splash of COLOR. A stunning paprika paint to bring out the wood tones of the dining room set. Then colorful coordinating pillows for the window seat to bring warmth to the room. A geometric custom area rug underneath the table adds more color and warmth to the room. Finally, a stone buffet with leather doors. A beautiful piece of furniture.

Wait there is still something missing......Above the buffet is a lonely wall crying out for something personal for this wonderful family. Something to show this family we apppreciate all the loyalty they have shown to us. Pia is creating original artwork, signed by her, to thank them for their kindness to us.

We had the wonderful pleasure of visiting this beautiful home this week. The pride they take in their home, and the incredible Christmas decorations, made us feel like we have made some truly deserving people, (thank-you for all the years of public service), a magnificent home that will be shared this wonderful holiday season with many family members, friends, and neighbors.

Thank-you for letting us earn and reward, your trust in us.
