| Style of firm "Living Room by Lounge Interiors" |
Well, its my third week at Lounge Interiors so I figured I would talk a little about the firm and give an overview of what my job responsibilities have been these past few weeks. We have been pretty busy at Lounge. From stocking our showroom, artwork sales and about 6 major clients to work on we have had our hands full! Since we have had so much to do Haley (my awesome boss) has let me join her on a couple of her projects. Below are a few projects that I actually have gotten to select fabrics and furniture for. I even got to go out on the job and field measure for some roman shades we are getting custom made for a client. But before I talk about my responsibilities let me tell you a little about the store. Lounge Interiors is owned by Haley Bianchini and managed by Laci Wheatley. Together they run a very successful business that offers interior retail sales, local artwork and a personal interior design service. They strive to make every person that walks through their doors feel welcome and to help them achieve the look that the client wants. The overall style of Lounge Interiors is transitional contemporary. A word that Haley often describes her pieces in the store and designs is "Classic". A classic transitional contemporary style for those of you that are completely confused by that is somewhere between completely modern and traditional pieces. The girls at lounge use light colors with a lot of fun accent colors. Something that Haley first said to me when I went for my interview is that, "the best way to design a space is to go with neutrals and use colors on the lamps, pillows and other accessories." So, now that you kinda have a feel for what Lounge Interiors is I'm going to fill you in on what I've been up to these past few weeks.
Pretty much every day I come in and help the business manager check on purchase orders and answer emails to get the day started after that its pretty much different everyday. I help Haley with her projects, organize the sample room, help with inventory, and help Laci or Haley with pretty much everything they do. The project on the left is a beach condo on dolphin island we have recently been working on. Its actually my bosses condo ha ha
She has let me choose many of the finishes and furniture for it which is so much fun!! This picture has pretty much everything I have done so far for it. From space planning, fabric selection and furniture selection she has included me in all of it! Still have a ways to go on it but its coming along...
The other project that I have been really involved in is a baby boys room. This project, I have field measured for roman shades and actually got to experience the struggle with dealing with the clients taste. It has been really exciting and challenging to design for an actual client but it is helping me so much with my people skills and creativity. Well, I guess that's all for now! Until next time....
