In the winter months, it\u2019s even more important to create a homey, warm\u00a0space for family and guests. What is your top advice for designing an inviting living space?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cold winter days and nights are best enjoyed in front of a fireplace with down-filled pillows, cashmere throws and lots of candles. Essentially it\u2019s the same room as before, except for the addition of those indulgent accessories and luxurious fabrics that work best when the snow is falling.<\/p>\n

Holiday d\u00e9cor can easily enter the realm of \u2018hokey\u2019 or contrived. What are some important tips to keep in mind when decorating a sophisticated interior\u00a0for the holidays?<\/strong><\/p>\n

When it\u2019s time begin preparing for the holidays, plan ahead and begin decorating early, subscribing to the notion that when the house is set for the holidays before<\/i> Thanksgiving, the rest of the holidays are reserved for celebrating. Coordinate trees with the d\u00e9cor in the room where they reside, and fill each with layers and textures creating details that make every branch interesting. To give each tree a brighter inner glow, weave multiple lights strands down the center. ‘Less is more’ certainly doesn\u2019t apply to lights on a tree. More is always better.<\/p>\n

If you could change one element of a room to improve people\u2019s first\u00a0impression of the space, what would it be? Why?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rarely do you get a second chance to make a good impression, so those first moments in a room are invaluable. Start by editing a room\u2019s furnishings and accessories to create a setting that doesn\u2019t overwhelm the person seeing the room for the first time. It\u2019s important to see the room and how it functions and not get lost in all the ‘fluff.’ Sometimes keeping it simple, clean, functional and tasteful is the best way to get noticed.<\/p>\n
