My Design Philosophy
"Nothing can more quickly reveal aspect of personality and character than the choice - or absence - of color."
- Van Day Truex
My designs are driven by my passion for and understanding of the psychological effects of color. Because our health and well-being is dramatically affected by our environment, I strive to create spaces that are filled with purpose and functionality.
