House 214: Classic. Timeless. Real.

Choosing classic, simple and timeless elements for your home is the first step to good design.

We all have had the experience where we walk into a home and think, why does this feel so right? What is making this space beautiful? The answer is simple. Good design. What is good design and how do you achieve it? Good design means choosing classic, simple, and timeless elements and staying consistent throughout not only the space, but the home. I believe that the way you design a home involves more than you may think. Yes, it includes styling and decorating, but it involves much more. The design of a home includes homemaking, cooking, and entertaining as well. This blog will provide you with information on how to design a home inspired by my own, but designed by you.

Whether you follow me on Instagram @house214design or view pictures of my home here, you will notice that I practice what I preach. My design philosophy is evident throughout my own home, work, and even the design of this website. I always choose classic components and keep it consistent. It makes the entire process that much easier.

Consistency is key when it comes to my design.

There are a number of ways that you can achieve my design philosophy in your own home. My upcoming posts will provide you with the details on how to do just that.
