Early morning when the studio is quiet is the time

Early morning when the studio is quiet is the time of day when I do some of my best design percolating... (that’s “mulling a design conundrum over so that, invariably, the thunderbolt ah-ha whacks me on the head”)
⠀
Whack.
⠀
Tell Jamie 18” is better than 12”.
⠀
Tell Mary, the answer is absolutely no.
⠀
Tell Chris, the answer is a resounding yes, but add 10% more gray to the base.
⠀
Tell Mark I’m sorry.
⠀
Oh wait...I’m sorry? Who’s Mark? Wrong post, wrong feed. But..you get the point.
⠀
Percolating is productive.

New Year hellos and happy wishes to you, my wonder

New Year hellos and happy wishes to you, my wonderfuls on this feed! To my team, my clients, my builders, my showrooms, and workrooms, my craftspeople.....and yes, some of my students from my other IG feed who find their way over here for some additional inspo and design joy.
⠀
Wishing you, and your families, a new year that is blessed to the brim and beyond with all things good and true.
⠀
Here’s to a wonderful 2021 ahead!

So enjoying some much needed time off.

Hanging (and laughing, and snacking) with Steve and the kids this week ...gluten free crackers for mamma...and a little dairy splurge…

Sometimes you've got to say, “what the fabric bolt...”

Well lovelies, I’m in full unplug mode as you re

Well lovelies, I’m in full unplug mode as you read this. The studio is “sleeping”, my team is on break, and hopefully my amazing peeps are playing too...
⠀
Me? I’m tucked in with my family, recharging my creative brain…thinking about what I want to create for our clients next and what I want to create in my company in the year ahead (serial entrepreneur here…)
⠀
A week of unplugging always does my creative soul a world of good 😊
⠀
Impeccable design - and design that we make look so easy - requires an all-in approach from our team. It’s thrilling to put forth. It can be tiring too.
⠀
Impeccable client service is a wonderful gift to give. It can be tiring as well.
⠀
Having a steady waitlist of clients waiting for us to start projects for them can be a wonderful compliment. But the pressure of disappointing “with a wait” can be tiring too.
⠀
And so, this twice annual ‘unplug’ for me and our team, a break from being in continual outflow mode, is an important one.
⠀
All this recharging before the new year happens is done so we can return to the saddle with fresh eyes and energy to make design magic happen in YOUR life, in your home...for you...for your family.
⠀

This great client family didn’t own a lot of art

This great client family didn’t own a lot of art when we first met.
⠀
But I glimpsed their family bible on proud display in their foyer.
⠀
So when it came time for us to craft meaningful interiors for them, I asked how they’d feel if we made a gallery grid using their favorite bible versus.
⠀
NOW, as an aside, I figured we’d photo copy the passages...I didn’t think my client would want to cut up one of their family treasures. (!)
⠀
(Um...is there a penalty or clause somewhere prohibiting this one I wondered?)
⠀
Anyway, threat of hell aside...you’ve got to admit that this eye candy living room is made only sweeter knowing the art stirred this couples’ soul.
⠀
That’s what right design should do and be...soul feeding 😊
⠀
Who’s hungry?

What a perfect space to dream your dreams and envision life as you want to create it.
⠀
Did you know that the Master Bedroom is often the most ignored space in a home because it’s not in public view?
⠀
Do you know what we say to that? Pshaw!
⠀
(Well, we actually say something else, but this IS a G-rated feed…)
⠀
Daily feelings of wellbeing and quality of life are affected by your Master Bedroom. It’s the last thing you see each night and the first thing you see each morning. That’s why we take such pains to tailor spaces so specifically to our clients needs and yearnings.
⠀
How’s your Master Bedroom looking AND feeling these days? Is 2021 the year you give yourself the gift of that perfect sanctuary?

Double Trend Alert in this snapshot we took during

Double Trend Alert in this snapshot we took during the recent High Point Furniture Market.

Trend #1: Mixed height coffee tables.
⠀
(We were way ahead of this curve in a project we’re working on for our clients M&G thanks to plain old IDH innovation and design magic)
⠀
And Trend #2: Smaller bunching tables clustered and used as a coffee table instead of one larger piece.
⠀
What do you think of this double trend look?

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 ✨
