A recent discussion came across my desk about how long Christmas decorations should stay up after the holidays?

One of the top financial billionaires on this planet stated that it is not the cost of purchases but the value received there of which is of merit.

Both of these approaches can be applied to residential interior design situations.

When considering and planning the design of a residential interior project consider the results desired, the level of quality, and the life time there of.

Where do you want to go and how long do you want to stay there?

What aspects will be for shorter periods and what aspects will be used and retained for decades or for your life time?

Do you want exclusively the time less classics or do you want to experience the changes brought about from current and future discoveries and advances of current residential interior designs?

What changes will take place in your life styles as you advance through your decades of living?

What is going to be the best over all and long term value for your expenditures using the laws of physics and principles of aesthetics for your residential living spaces while on this planet?

Keep in mind during this process the tangible and intangible aspects of your own unique personality.

Think, create, schedule, evaluate, execute, and enjoy.

Food for thought.
