In this episode of the Uploft Interior Design, I take you behind the scenes of my busy summer, balancing family life with a full client schedule while training a talented new interior designer. I share stories from recent design consultations, including helping clients overcome the challenge of envisioning new furniture layouts and creating more functional, beautiful spaces. Along the way, I discuss current design trends I'm seeing everywhere—from warm neutrals, green accents, and fluted wood to the growing influence of AI-generated inspiration—and explain why I believe function should always come before symmetry. I also answer thoughtful questions from my trainee about evaluating floor plans, exploring multiple layout options, and why it's important to start every design with the essential furniture pieces before focusing on decorative details. Whether you're designing your own home or considering a career in interior design, I hope these behind-the-scenes insights help you approach every space with more confidence and creativity.
