Keeping the PASSION

DO IT WITH PASSION OR NOT AT ALL

Often there are days we are tired, feel a lack of creativity, and can’t keep up with all of the things that keep us going each day. The one thing that keeps me going is PASSION. Passion to inspire my readers, create impeccable designs, and have an occasional BASH or two with the 2 most amazing business partners a girl could as for.  The past 2 weeks I have done a lot of reflection on balance, how to accomplish my dreams, and  make money doing it.  I apologize the for the lack of blog posts but BASH Event design needed some loving care and I needed to focus on how to bring all of my businesses to the next level.  The most successful people in the world need balance.  Balance requires daily schedules to keep them accomplishing there goals and dreams while producing the best work possible.  Never lose sight of your goals.  Sometimes we all need a break to breathe, figure out our next move, to become passionate again.   Keep your PASSION for what you love for this is the only thing we have that makes it all worth it after a long work day.  One day you will look back and be amazed by all you have accomplished due to the love and passion you had for your career.

Industrial Chic

The design trend “Industrial chic” combines elements from as early at the 1990’s incorporated with modern pieces from the now.  Some may say this design style feels sterile, yet combining soft elements such as a sheepskin rug and touches of creams and whites can soften up the hardness of a space that evokes exposed brick or steel columns.  Metal plays a big part of the style with machined iron and steel paired with unfinished wood for a look that is delightfully nostalgic. Currently in the hospitality design world industrial design is hotter than ever. I have been seeing more and more projects incorporating industrial elements to their overall concept creating a more edgy appeal to a upscale hotel or restaurant.   In order to make this look work it is important to concentrate on adding one or two key pieces that are transitional yet traditional in form, giving rooms an injection of the unexpected. When shopping for this look think “old factory” with dynamic shapes.  I have found one of the biggest resources for a more industrial look would be Restoration Hardware, High Fashion Home, and West Elm.  All these suppliers have elements that are are in the direction of this design style, especially restoration Hardware.  For more information on how to get the look email me at divaonadimeinteriors@gmail.com.

Happy Shopping Design Divas!

XO,
Marissa
