I've been Meaning to tell You...
I’ve been Meaning to tell You…
For years we were so busy with our clients design work, and so it took a major step forward to make the decision to update our own home.

The first thing you see at your front door is your street number
I couldn’t stop looking at this photo. True, I love the coastal color of the door (it’s actually the same as ours). But in truth my eyes went right to the number ‘1206’. Of course it’s important to have your house number visible for a variety of reasons – safety, identity, etc.

Tumblr media
If you’re like us, you may feel a bit challenged with the near future.
That’s certainly understandable, yet there are many things under your control. You can face the day and see the lack, the things you don’t ‘have’. Or, you can take a moment to realize the many things you have around you that can change your mood – like color.
For instance, I can change my mood with color. I notice colors when…
