The Art of Curation—Art is one of my main passio

The Art of Curation—Art is one of my main passions, I love to utilize beautiful works as much as I can to bring personality to a space. Having your own collection is so personal, whether it be a flea market find, your child’s handmade art, or an art gallery collection. There are ways that you can showcase your collection brilliantly. Gallery walls can build a cohesive collection while telling a story. Individually hung art pieces can create a sense of serenity, showcasing a very special piece. Layering art on art shelves gives the flexibility where art can be rotated with less restriction. A beautiful look. We have a wide array of art sources that are perfect for you. Let me help curate your art. DM Nicole for more info. on our design service.

The Process of Design Being a designer at Schreite

The Process of Design
Being a designer at Schreiter’s gives me the chance to work hands on with our clients whether it be a simple room refresh or re-designing the entire house. We have a wide array of resources to work from. Taking the time to truly listen to what your design goals are, what function is needed, and your hopes & dreams for your space. This is such an important first step when designing a space. This info. is gathered along with room measurements, photos to begin to working through the design process to create a concept. We analyze any design problems, sketch & create layout solutions. I the source through our large catalogue of suppliers to find the best-suited furniture & finishes. Once the design plan is ready we will sit down discuss the plan. Once finalizing is completed, we then begin the ordering process and plan the delivery & installation. We the follow up with another home visit adding any finishing touches needed. Are you looking for design assistance? We can work virtually or plan on a future in-home visit. DM Nicole for more info.
