Breast Cancer Showhouse 2010
Each year a group of local interior designers takes on a not-your-usual makeover project known to many as The Breast Cancer Showhouse. It is a unique opportunity to put their design talent on display while raising funds to support breast and prostate cancer research at the Medical College of Wisconsin. To date, the non-profit organization has collected nearly $4 million dollars and has a potential for raising much more. The house chosen for a 2010 renovation is an English Tudor revival home located in Milwaukee’s prestigious North Point neighborhood.

2010 Design MMoCA
One of my professional missions is to promote the industry of interior design. I try to get involved in community projects, professional organizations and events that provide such outlets. This year I was approached by Madison Museum of Contemporary Art to participate in a bi-annual event that provides an opportunity to marry interior design and fine art. Design MMoCA will happen April 23rd – May 2nd, 2010 and I invite everyone to attend it and see what myself and 15 other designers come up with.

Luckily for those, who are not as gifted (like me) but who want to learn and are committed to becoming better at drawing, there is hope. read more
New development, new designer
In today’s hectic world, the leisure and the entertainment industry are still going strong. Especially overseas, a lot of new hotel projects are being completed, just breaking grounds or are in the planning phase. It looks as though the population of hard-working and always connected professionals is driving the “relax in style” trend. Guests are looking for not just any style, but luxury, uniqueness and unforgettable experience.
You can't have it all
No matter what industry you are in, if you know your profession well, you will agree that the customers who require the product/service to be delivered with top quality, quickly and inexpensively, are asking for impossible. The triangle of quality, price and time always leaves one out.
