Come in and stay awhile.

Designs Of The Interior (DOTI) has a wide network of vendors and retailers for any type of home décor that you can imagine, making it easy for you to create your desired look. For example, we were drawn to this interior because of its warmth and visual complexity. We love the tribal rug that anchors […]

Up, up, and away.

Charged with the task of creating a modern airplane-themed child’s bedroom, Designs Of The Interior (DOTI) had to hunt down sleek, silver, high-gloss accessories – preferably airplane themed – to complete the fun tangerine and aqua space that we helped design to the client’s wishes. This was no easy feat, considering that most airplane-themed furnishings […]

We all scream for accent screens!

Looking for an easy way to spice up a plain wall? How about for a quick fix to visually divide a too-large space? Decorative screens are a beautiful and unique solution to both of these problems. The interior to the left is a great example of how a moveable accent screen can add that last […]

I can see straight through you!

There is something beautiful about transparency. It could be its unabashed view of how things really are. Or it could be its amazing simplicity in a world of ever-growing complexity.

I really just want to touch the one on the left to make sure that those wrinkles aren’t real! Although […]

Get a little wild!

Another hot fashion trend this year (which is as classic as it is popular) is animal print. Although at first you may be a little wary of its relevance – you’re not a teenage girl wanting a hot pink and zebra-print room, after all – the multitudes of styles, colors, and sizes for animal prints […]

More (and masculine!) coral.

If you like coral but not a fan of the frills, it can just as easily be paired with darker colors for a more masculine look. To the left you can see how the coral pillows look sophisticated but fresh on a dark leather couch. I am also a huge fan of both the style […]

…and a dash of glitz and glam!

       Bronze, silver, platinum, and gold – oh my! If you are a bit of a diva but don’t want your living room to look like the inside of Fort Knox, subdued metallic furnishings are just enough of that glittery glamour.  This chair has the perfect mix of subdued gold with slightly metallic, […]
