You can personalize old pieces to design something fresh and irreplaceable. Try customizing pots and planters to really make your flowers contemporary!
Add Pops of Color: Bright colors will create a focal point in your garden. Color can make your outdoor area look fun and inviting. Make a colorful walkway or mix and max your planters. Grab a paintbrush and get craft! These changed will make a real visual impact.
Be Smart with Lighting: In any outdoor space, lighting is one of the most important design elements. You can transform your garden into a fairy-tale like space at nighttime with elegant types of lighting. By brightening up your outdoor space at night you can also be making a space party ready!

UP, UP, AND AWAY- HIGH END INTERIOR DESIGN TAKES ON LUXURY JETS

If you’ve been reading for a while, you know by now that I get very excited when I come across innovations in the world of high end interior design.

Whether its art that I love, projects I am working on, or things that inspire I just want to share it with everyone I know.

Today I am going to share with you these glamorous new interiors of Mercedes private jets.

Mercedes Benz style and Lufthansa Technik have teamed up to create this new concept.

Mercedes owner Daimler has come up with a futuristic interior design concept for private jets that will change your whole experience of flying in a plane.

Ultra-lux is a huge factory in this model that takes shape of a “dynamic, spiral layout.”

Their design scheme highlights fresh, fluid lines and warm wood colors. It is brought together with modern black and white accents. The innovative technology concepts include entertainment systems integrated into the wall panels with touch screens. These only become visible when they are on.

I am very impressed with this swanky creation and cannot wait to see it in fruition. Forget private jets why not make all planes this spectacular!

TOP 5 WAYS TO USE WHITE FOR A FRESH DESIGN LOOK

They are so many articles out there telling you how to use the color white while interior decorating. There are about a million different ways the color white can influence a room.

I have read through the articles for you and discovered some of my favorite ways to use white in high end interior design.

Today I am going to show you my top 5 favorite ways using white can tie together simplicity and strength in your home.

Accessorize – When using white you can add layers and layers of white accessories. This helps texturize a room and synchronize a space.
Change With The Seasons – Having an all white space gives you the freedom for an easy color swap out that matches the season. In the summer replace those dark navy winter pillows for bright popping orange ones. You can also easily swap out your rug to help define the season and mood.
All The Different Whites – There are various amounts of tones out there so you must be careful when choosing your white for a room. By having so many options it also allows you to distinctively identify your space based on your own personal taste. Freshen up a space with a pale blue white or a warm yellow white.
White Upholstery – Try using white outdoor fabrics inside. These are washable and help add valued texture without losing the power of stain resistance.
Harmonizing Powers – Older homes that have character but have also been lived in by many people before you. If you notice there is a fragmented and disjointed air to the interior then you can use white to instantly synchronize the space. The power of white gives you the freedom to start over with out forcing a daunting color scheme onto a room.

Kusama’s Give me love exhibit features a room full of boisterous pumpkin shaped sculptures, a gallery filled with grand abstract and colorful works on canvas, and last but not least the Obliteration Room.

Through our all of her works she expresses herself with her trademark dots. In the Obliteration Room she has installed and actual trailer with a kitchen and dining room with everything completely covered in white. From the dog bed on the floor to the kitchen sink, everything has been covered in white paint.

Visitors are allowed to walk through the house and upon enter gets a sheet of sticker dots in various neon colors. You then explore the interiors of the house and can sporadically place these sticker dots wherever you please.

This unique exhibit allows views to engage with the art and express themselves through the interior space.

Now this very white room has been covered with this sticker dots. Be sure to stick some yourself and add to this heap of rainbow bewilderment.

MIAMI DESIGN DISTRICT IS DOUBLING UP WITH 500 MILLION-DOLLAR EXPANSION

Over the past decade South Florida has been booming in the luxury and design industries. So many new development projects have been started such as the Miami Beach Convention Center Hotel and Tower 155.

These businesses reflect the local economy very positively and keep it growing at a rapid pace.

I am excited to announce the expansion of the Miami Design District. Developers are projecting to double the size of this neighborhood, adding an abundance of luxury shops and trendy restaurants.

This growing retail and restaurant commerce will double the amount of tourism in Miami as well. A total of 60 stores and restaurants are set to open by mid-2017. This is on top of the 70 already existing.

Some of the talked about brands that will be joining the Design District are Dolce & Gabbana and ABC Kitchen. A lot of the current stores such as Prada and Christian Louboutin will be developing large flagship stores.

This growth spur in Miami truly makes this city a destination for shoppers and lovers of fine taste and I am a proud to be a resident!

HOW TO PICK QUALITY FABRICS WITHOUT LOSING YOUR MIND

As a high end interior designer, I see more people go crazy when trying to pick the right fabrics for their home than possibly any other decision they make. Whether it’s Do-It-Yourself decoration or the most high end interior design job, figuring this out just seems to stress people out like nothing else.

I get it…choosing fabrics is kind of like deciding on a new hairstyle. Sure, it’s only what goes on top, but in many ways it’s the finish that ties everything else together.

That’s why for today’s episode of DesignTV With Steven G., I wanted to give you some pointers on how to make this happen to make sure your home ends up to be everything you dreamed it would be, down to the last detail.
