If you actually keep things very organized and clutter-free, you can have more furniture than you think you can in a small space.

By acquiring all of your furniture from different eras and places and things that are expensive and inexpensive, it will make your end product have a great spirit.

I love having beautiful furniture and things, but I don't want my space to look like a showroom.

I used to love a well-arranged room: the furniture, the fabric, the lighting.

I mean, even my dressing room at the studio has candles and cushions and cashmere rugs and things.

I like candles. It helps cover up for the fact that I have four male roommates.

The first thing I tell clients is get off the couch! Just start making some small lifestyle changes such as walking to work instead of driving or taking the stairs instead of the lift. The small things you can change all add up.

There are certain parts of the home that I think embellishment feels cozy and inviting. Then there are other environments, for example, the living room, where I don't have a ton of items on the table.

Be able to blow out a dinner candle without sending wax flying across the table.

In a modern loft, you can't just fill a space with furniture. Each piece has to be perfect.
