About
Art and design takes up a large part of my life. I have an overactive, creative mind. I like everything from modern design to European design to shabby chic. Besides interior design, I enjoy architecture and residential design planning. Often, I work with graphic design creating posters, logos, some web design, and some illustration. I love working with color and type/typography. Creating different color palettes on Kuler and Colour Lovers is one of my favorite things to do in spare time.
My goal after completing my degree, is to have a small interior design firm in a cool section of Brooklyn [Williamsburg area or Park Slope] where the epitome of 'urban living' is.
I also work in traditional mediums: gouache, acrylics, colored pencils, Copic markers, and Prismacolors. I like making designs for paper/stationary and greeting cards.
My fave eco-living/green books: 1001 Ways To Save The Earth , The Green Book , It's Easy Being Green , Living Like Ed , Easy Green Living

I am a total bibliophile.
I was lucky enough to have my grandfather for just over 13 years. I was closer to him than I could be to anyone. He was and always will be the light in my soul and the most important person to me. Vincenzo Salvatore: 06.24.1910 - 03.27.1993
"People once believed, that when someone dies, a crow carries their soul to the land of the dead. But sometimes, something so bad happens, that a terrible sadness is carried with it and the soul can't rest. Then sometimes, just sometimes the crow could bring that soul back to put the wrong things right."
