Follow on Google News | Experts Share Their Thoughts on What Makes a Good DesignFive Texas Designers, including Houston Interior Designer Laura Umansky, share their philosophy on how great design can be achieved.
By: Laura U Collection The feature also included award-winning architects, David Lake and Ted Flato of Lake|Flato based in San Antonio; hotelier and designer, Liz Lambert; and furniture and interior designer, Julie Schaff Risman, who is also owner of the Inside Story Design located in San Antonio. Each designer gave a different approach on what makes a good design. Flato believes “good design needs to make the larger environment a better place.” Flato’s partner- Lake, adds, “Everything we do has to be sustainable. The man-made world and the natural [has] to be in harmony.” While Lambert defines good design as “finding a balance between elegance and simplicity, vibrancy and calm, old and new.” And Risman feels in order to achieve good design, “your home should tell your story. [For example,] art and artifacts from your travels, collections and artful photos [can] turn a house into a home.” Each designer brings a refreshing take on what is good design. For the modern day homeowner, good design is bringing your own personality, style and taste into the design of your home. While for a designer, achieving good design for a client must include a balance between form and functionality.
