Summary

Creating a design Northstar is something we do for every client, so we’re gonna take you through how you do that in this week’s episode. We got a question from one of our listeners who is renovating a historic home built in 1790 in Hudson Valley, New York. She is in the middle of a major powder bath and kitchen remodel moving walls, placing windows, the whole deal. She asked how to avoid decision fatigue in these huge projects as she doesn’t want to make mistakes or regret choices. She has found that working with Pinterest and Pinterest mood boards has been helping, but she still would like to know how not to get burnout when making countless decisions over the course of a few months. Brands we’re obsessed with right now 1:05 How to avoid decision fatigue 10:30 The Northstar 13:00 The ever after house: EASE 21:35 Favorite brands 27:10 “There are so many different description words and I think when you start to pull your lifestyle I’d be like ‘What do these things have in common? It’s really textural, or it’s very dimensional.’ I think you’ll start to finish your sentence with visuals.” 26:48 https://www.instagram.com/alicelaneinteriors/ https://www.instagram.com/alicelanehome/ https://alicelanehome.com/ https://www.facebook.com/AliceLaneHome https://www.pinterest.com/alicelanehome/ https://www.youtube.com/alicelanehomecollectionsaltlakecity News Letter: https://manage.kmail-lists.com/subscriptions/subscribe?a=HZENWY&g=PFcqV5
