Follow your heart. Find your style. Think about how you live. That’s what noted Williamsburg interior designers say are key to making the furniture, finishes, and foundational decisions that turn rooms in houses into the living spaces that build the backdrop for a home.
That’s not to say following those simple guidelines is easy. Personal style evolves over time. Families grow and change. Trends come. Trends go.
Trying to keep all these factors in mind can be hard when it comes to designing a home. That’s why when it comes to interior design, it’s important to have an experienced eye—an eye that’s well versed in more than knowing what pillow complements which furniture fabric. It’s about measurements and usage, timelessness and trends.
We sat down with three local designers from Jackson Thomas Interiors, The Guild Hall of Williamsburg, and The Velvet Shoestring to share what they’ve learned from their experience in the business and how families should approach the interior design of their own homes.
