Design

So I just watched the finale of HGTV's design star which inspired me to post about interior design... again. I love HGTV. My favorite show is Secrets from a Stylist because her show's gimmick is mixing styles and that is what I love.












By the end of my design class every week, I resolve to be an interior designer, and shows like this one do not help to sway me. But of course BYU does not have an interior design program and I don't know what to make of that, so until I figure something out, I am still set on nursing. And I'm my third week in so nothing is final, luckily. But also in my design class every week, I want to become more and more like my professor. Not because of her Better of Dead Voice, but because of her awesome life. She has spent multiple summers living in awesome places like France, England, and Italy. She travels all over America looking for cool designs and touring historic buildings. Basically everything I love and want to do with my life she has done. Except live in Chicago. She hasn't done that.

Musings of Interior Design

I love my interior design class! Last week we talked about the French style and its elements, which I love. I want a french chateau someday. My teacher is an older lady born and raised in Utah so she has that distinguished Utahian way of speaking where she says words weird like crick and maysure and Frinch. Every time she talked about Frinch windows or Frinch chairs I was reminded of Franch..... fries and Franch..... dressing. I had to fight the urge to say, and for drink.... Per-oo! 




But seriously, here are some of my favorite Franch designs.















Today we learned about Spanish/adobe style which I have never been too fond off. But, today I really enjoyed it, I think because it looked like home. I never thought I would miss cacti and brown weeds but I really wanted to be in those pictures today.






Maybe it's because all the houses where in Scottsdale. I have always liked Scottsdale.
