No bouncer needed, but a rousingly fab time is surely had by all in an IDH Dining Room.

Hey there! If you’re new to my feed, it’s great to meet you. 😊
⠀
I’m Donna - the chief brain around here at Interiors by Donna Hoffman.
⠀
IDH started during a deep recession, yet grew to become an in demand, multi-award-winning, luxury interior design company.
⠀
My husband, Steve, joined as our Director of Operations several years ago because with our company’s growth and success we needed someone with his skillset. (Or as we joke, ...he’s the “how”, I’m the “wow.”).
⠀
But aside from loving (and legally sleeping with) the Director of Operations (!) - I am beyond blessed in our incredible team. They are rock stars and treasured members of the IDH family.
⠀
We serve incredible clients who come to us for everything from single-room or multi-room interior design to those who come to us for one of our specialties….
⠀
….New Home Builds where we guide clients from blueprint stage through construction and all finish selections, right down to designing and installing a perfectly integrated dream home. Our systems are so keen that we easily work on large residences from 13,000 square feet to those over 20,000+
⠀
(And hey, if you can can design scads of rooms efficiently and gorgeously, doing 1-3 rooms is a snap…😊)
⠀
And some clients come to us for another of our specialties: Couples Design. A sweet spot for us for when clients can’t agree and feel stuck. We see clearly how to undo the knot and then we design gorgeousness where everyone wins.
⠀
So nice to meet you!

I adore this image from one of the new design build projects we worked on from blueprint stage through finish selections and construction into full interior design.
⠀
The day our clients got the keys, our team sprang into action, with crews working daily for an entire month to install it all, down to the last accessory 😊
⠀
This picture perfectly reflects the delish couple we designed it for. Their love of art; their love of bespoke detailing; their love of signature flourishes - and the constant dance between his taste for traditional and her penchant for something fresh and current.
⠀
Let us make 2021 YOUR year in design. Call our studio today to discuss your design dreams, so we can make next year YOUR year ✨

For the daring, we dare.
⠀
For the restrained, we restrain.
⠀
We listen deeply to understand profoundly what kind of beauty and surrounding YOU need to feel great in your daily round.
⠀
EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. OF. YOUR. LIFE.
⠀
That’s the power of design. It's the magic of what we do ✨
⠀
So where are YOU on the Design Scale? Are you more daring or more restrained? Leave a comment - I love hearing what’s on your savvy design loving mind!

What if today - just today - you turned off the newsfeed, tuned out the political rhetoric, and just looked at your total life and took absolutely nothing for granted?
⠀
What are you grateful for - large and small? Get out the notepad and just write until your hand hurts 😊
⠀
Here’s some from my “notepad” of gratefulness, the full cup of blessings in my life:
⠀
The marriage that enriches my life in endless ways, our 2 kids and the joyfully rich connection we all share; the friends who “add to our family”; the extended family who ARE our family; our gracious home; our picturesque, historic town and county; the blessing of our “always trying to do it better” country; getting to do work that I love; our incredible IDH team; our clients who make us smile; our industry partners who bless us with their talent and time; my design students across the country who shower me with gratitude and friendship for unleashing their talent.
Yes, for these things and so much more I really am….thankful.
⠀
And I’m thanking you, too, for being with me in this feed.
⠀
Happy Thanksgiving, my lovelies and gentlemen.

Note from the High Point Furniture Market…
⠀
We saw some version of the wingback chair silhouette in SO many showrooms - all innovating, all playing with either scale, silhouette or detailing.
⠀
In this version, from Theodore Alexander, note the exaggerated back height against the reduced wing and exposed wood arm.
⠀
Always interesting to see where design houses are pushing the envelope ✨

Layered texture is a love of ours at IDH.
⠀
It’s what gives spaces their nuance and warmth, no matter the design style we’re working in.
⠀
The details make the design...

Love this dose of saturated color...it's unapologetic and crisp.
⠀
This award-winning kitchen is a fav of ours. It was also designed with the woman I call the millwork and cabinetry whisperer, Kim Price of
@buckscountycabinetry.
⠀
Yep, I mentioned Kim in the prior post.
⠀
I LOVE a good collab - and designing with a talented specialist is like enjoying a great game of doubles tennis.
⠀
OK, so I don't play tennis.
⠀
But I can design my tail off.....and so can Kim. Probably one of the reasons we LOVE designing together...but rarely hit the tennis court.
⠀
Xo!

WE can design your home so that it lifts you when

WE can design your home so that it lifts you when you need lifting, soothes you when you need soothing, nurtures you when you need nurturing, and energizes you when you need energizing.
⠀
It’s all how YOU want to feel in your spaces that guides and inspires our thinking. Then we use our well honed design craft to make manifest whatever it is that best serves you in your home and life: YOUR goals, YOUR dreams, YOUR budget, YOUR priorities.
⠀
Lately, we are getting lots of requests to create more peace and serenity in client’s homes. Here's a peek at a prayer room we designed for a fav client.
⠀
But serenity in your home doesn’t just mean prayer. It can mean many different things to different people.
⠀
So enjoy this latest blog “Spaces for Serenity” May it inspire you...

Can a closet be voted Sexiest Closet Alive?
⠀
This fav project of ours just got our vote.
⠀
(PS...a JOY to run alongside the UBER talented Kim Price of @BucksCountyCabinetry just to keep up on this one! Kim is a stellar talent. AND, look at that workmanship!)
⠀
Swoon...with a side order of more swoon ❤️

I couldn't agree more. “Look but don’t touch” interiors are essentially cold, dead spaces.
⠀
We believe in creating livable luxury for you; bespoke custom spaces that look and feel truly beautiful - but with fabrics and finishes that are family and pet proof.
⠀
Our job is to create the PERfect home that supports you in living your best life. Every. Single Day.
⠀
Ready to get started with us? Call the studio - we’d love to talk!

When gathering fabrics for your design board...always grab a snack.

Of course, when NOT working on a design board, I think you should grab a snack too.

I’m just saying...

After much coercing by my team, I finally agreed to sit for this pic ….but I negotiated the sign 😊
⠀
Shyness aside, I’m truly grateful to the Interior Design Society and the esteemed judges panel for our 5 Designer of the Year awards. Just one award is a humbling thrill so I must admit to being a little stunned as 5 happened in one night….
⠀
Still, I’m ever grateful for the blessing of the best-team-ever here at Interiors by Donna Hoffman who make our beautiful design work possible, and who enrich my life by being in it.
⠀
And let me also shout out our incredible clients. They show up in good faith at our company, entrust us with their home, and let us do our job. Let us do our job. Let us do our job. Yes….that’s how we can create the magic in your home ✨
⠀
Thank you so much! Xo - d

(PS...I actually have this boxwood hedge design along my front walk. Its a fav feature for me, but it requires talent I do not have. I can trim my bangs when desperate, but that’s about it…😊)

Are accessories that important?
⠀
When I teach design, I show my students how the careful curation of accessories within any space has as much visual impact as any key furniture piece. They are that powerful ✨
⠀
Vision. Curation. Execution. The most Pinterest-worthy results and happiest IDH clients happen when they follow our formula.
⠀
Still not convinced? Please enjoy this blog called “Are Accessories That Important?” (Link in bio 😊)

Wore a mask EVERYWHERE, except in this corner for 2 secs when snapping this pic.

Ate some of the most AMAZING Southern cooking...evah. (Robyn J...if you’re reading this, when do I get my cooking lesson on collard greens already? Girlfriend, I’m growing old waiting….)
