CHRISTOPHER HYLAND - J NELSON - SFDP #Repost @christopherhylandinc @download.ins --- All of us at Christopher Hyland empathize with each of you, and we realize the multiple problems that we all are experiencing in the design community and beyond. Our prayers are with you. Covid aside, we need continue to design when and where possible, ever mindful that the interiors of your substantial visions are best realized with comfort, charm, whimsy, dignity and practicality, incorporating the mementos of your clients active lives all round the given project no matter the style or period inspiration. Anything short of this approach renders interiors void, soulless and cold, incapable of providing refuge from an often harsh world, not unlike the one we are experiencing during this Covid War. A client just recently told me, “ I am now at home in an ice box created at much expense”. A real estate broker told me, “ if you ever decide to sell, get rid of the books and paintings”. Could these attitudes be indicative of why we are unprepared? Home cries heart! Let heart and culture large snd small enter our design culture again. There is a place for the baseball picture and the Picasso. -CH #home #library #cozydesign #heart #charm #covid #covid19 #stayhome #interiordesign #decorator #ad100 #whimsy #decoratorsclub #ddbuilding #asid #architect #aia #culture #baseball #picasso #truman #idealcity #industrialtextiles #luxurytextiles #hometextiles #familyroom (at South Florida Design Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-iLn4iFKMt/?igshid=gbkisl3kklo1
