The Value of Interior Design

Floor Plan by Amanda Eubanks

A wise professor, from Ryerson University’s School of Interior Design in Toronto, once said, “Interior designers must also know half of what an architect knows and a quarter of what an engineer knows, but they get half the pay and a quarter of the respect.” -René Ng

Read a short article about the strategic value of interior design.

Savannah: “Where The Gold At?”

The St. Patrick’s Day celebration in Savannah is the second largest St. Patrick’s Day event in the United States. Likened by some to a Mardi Gras celebration, the spirited St. Patrick’s Day festivities in Savannah attract roughly 400,000 Irish and honorary Irish visitors each year. The comparison to Mardi Gras ends when it comes to displays of public nudity, however, which in Savannah will “get you arrested.”

On my Spring Break from Auburn University I was able to join in the festivities.  I awoke to a continental breakfast where I enjoyed a perfectly festive green waffle, then it was off to the morning parade, with huge green sequined bow atop my head.  During the parade, I  especially appreciated the many Irish kilts,  bag-pipes, honorary queens, the skateboarding kids, the dance teams, the pirates, and the leprechauns.  I had such a great time, and the day was filled with prime people-watching.  I was also able to spend time with the Green family (Thanks for having us Brad), who graciously invited us into their home, to a low-country boil, and a boat ride.  God Bless the South and I just love y’all!

As a native Mobilian, I would also like to reflect upon 2006…the year of  the Mobile Leprechaun.

Sometimes you just have to get out…

I love interior spaces, but there is still something very important about getting outside in nature and the beautiful landscape.  I’m about to embark on a backpacking trip to Linville Gorge in North Carolina with some friends.  This will be exciting and I can’t wait to be inspired by nature and the beautiful snow covered scenery.  Chilly temperatures are expected, but what’s a trip without heightened senses?

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree…

It’s my Thanksgiving holiday and I’ve been appreciating my break from school work so very much.  We are in York, Pennsylvania for a visit with my sister and her husband.  It is Christi and Chris’s first Christmas as a married couple and we really wanted them to have a tree.  We had a lovely drive to Amish country where we selected a tree, had it cut, and crammed it into our new Acura SUV to drive it back to York.  I love the holidays! It smells like Christmas.

This is a little collage of our adventures:
