“The proof of the pudding is in the eating.” Winston Churchill

The primary goal for any residential interior design project should be long term lasting results and not quick, easy, inexpensive, or short term results.

If results are not the only goal, then any residential interior design project is of no merit.

Some people are of the position that a designed residential interior project is exclusively a financial transaction and that’s all they want or need to find happiness.

It matters not the scheduling, costs, timing, materials, workmen, size, quality, et cetera, if there is no beauty manifest, it is but a business transaction.

If you eliminate, change, compromise, cut costs, et cetera and lower the quality and aesthetic bar to complete something by a certain time, that result is there permanently, you will have to live with it, and the best designed results will be missing.

A well designed quality residential interior space can last for decades.

As such, is it not worth the resources to make it complete and the best it can be?

If the food doesn’t taste good, are you going to eat it? It may be nutritious and healthy, but eating it will not be enjoyable.

Do you want to spend years of your life in such a place?

Quality lasts.

Food for thought.
