New year's resolution 2012: A prescription for beginning
Throughout the years, one of the most common questions I get is...
"Do you have any advice for someone who wants to be a designer?"
People in the design business often get into it because we love it. But it takes a while to find your style, no matter how talented you are. This is a truism that applies not only to design but to any other achievement in life — you won’t realize your potential unless you grind through the failures.
So if you are working on New Year’s resolutions, the most important thing is doing the work. Set deadlines, so that every week you finish one thing. It’ll take a while to find your groove; you’ve just got to fight your way through.

Royal wedding theme
With the enormous enthusiasm for the Royal Wedding, it seems like lots of people have recently rediscovered a soft spot for fairy tales. It’s enchanting!
Along with the wedding, there seems to be a trend towards all things British at the moment.

All of this is to say that we can probably expect to see a sudden rise in popularity of the classic English look with some modern twists. I thought I’d share some British-inspired design to mark the occasion.
Forget the palace; you can spruce up your place so you will feel like a princess. I still have fond memories of living in an old flat in London. It’s all about being comfortable with your taste and combining styles to reflect your personality.
