Take a look at their carefully curated designs!

What do you imagine when you think about your dream home? What is the kitchen like? The bathroom? More apropos for today, the home office and outdoor space?

Dennis and Ruby Oliveira thoughtfully considered every detail of their lifestyle when they decided to downsize to a smaller, more turnkey home.

IDS May Member Spotlight

Posted on May 21, 2020May 21, 2020 by @wendy

When did you realize that you wanted to become an interior designer?
My grandmother encouraged me to be a designer. My son was in first grade and she could see I was having a hard time figuring out what to do with my life. She asked me to call a lady that had been asking me for help with her home. She said she’d love to hear how it went the next day when I came to see her. Smart cookie…she put a timeframe on her expectation. So, I called the lady because I didn’t want to disappoint my grandma, and I have been working ever since.

Who was the first interior designer to make an impression on you?
Mario Buatta. I loved looking at AD when I was little at the cabin we’d visit every summer at Pinecrest Lake. Same 5 issues of AD year after year and the biggest impression was made by Mario Buatta and the BMW 750 iL ads. 😂
