DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT

Joseph Del Percio
hat is the function of an interior designer? To transform a home, a room, a space into the best possible interpretation of a client’s vision. With the greatest consideration placed on their lives and lifestyle, the experience and result will be interesting and rewarding for everyone. While many designers feel that the most beautiful projects are those which have the least amount of client involvement, the most success and satisfying results are gained by involving the client in every aspect of design. All design is a collaborative effort and by extracting the ideas and opinions from the client, with a gentle course correction and an inconspicuous eye on editing, the finished project will usually benefit from their specific insight. The designer’s influence, like a fingerprint on a lens, is an everpresent filter through which the big picture is brought into view. This home is a perfect example of how the exquisite taste and generous hearts of the clients greatly enhance both the design and the process. From the moment of inception their focus, with unwavering trust in the designer, was to bring the vision of “An Elegant Cottage” into fruition. Using a mix of antiques, and new and repurposed furnishings, and a warm, cheerful palette. The overall home is completely suited to the client’s lifestyle and aesthetic.
