It can start with a few simple items – a painting, a chair, even a piece of jewelry or a dress that speaks to you, says Valerie Onor, The Boulevard’s Designer of the Year. From these starting points, your personal tastes will emerge and, taking into account the particulars of your lifestyle, an entire room will develop around the things you love. Onor works to develop an overall atmosphere that “feeds your soul” – creating a home that tells your story and comforts your body and spirit. “This process is great fun,” says Onor. “It is serious, but we come to enjoy it as one of the good things in life. The key is to learn to let your passion come through.”
Why wait for summer when you could already be relaxing and swimming
