Love Where You Live: Dream Homes Made Real (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781494962968)

Heather McManus, an associate ASID member and Creative Director of Artistry Interiors LLC, graduated from The Pratt Institute in 1999 with a BFA in Art Education. After teaching art for a short while, her true destiny called her to work in the interior design field. What seemed like an accident at the time could only later be defined as divine intervention. Her first job in the interior design world was working for a high-end custom window treatment and reupholstery workroom. That's where she learned how things are made from the ground up and got to know all the fabric manufacturers. Heather discovered that she not only loved this new field, but was a natural talent. She went on to work for a few high-end furniture stores before breaking out on her own to start Artistry Interiors, LLC. Heather's design philosophy is to love where you live, because your environment affects how you feel. It's so much more than pretty spaces or impressing your neighbors. Loving where you live means you're surrounded by beauty, comfort and luxury. Your home becomes your best friend, with whom you want to spend more time. It means everything functions to serve you and make your life easier. Your home is where you celebrate the holidays with family, bring your new baby home from the hospital, and where precious memories are made. For today's busy lifestyles, Heather creates homes that are easy to live in, look elegant and are completely custom-designed with each client in mind. She transforms homes into fabulous, functional spaces, a look she calls casual elegance. The three elements that make her casual elegance signature look successful are beauty, comfort and convenience. Heather has been featured in national and local design magazines and has won awards for her design work and excellent customer relations.
