Q: Winter Pastimes
-- Interior Design, 2/1/2009 12:00:00 AM
We asked five designers, “What are you doing to fight the winter doldrums, whether you’re in snowy Chicago or sunny California?”
“Remain very involved in education—teaching at Pratt and exchanging new ideas with young and aspiring designers.” —Mark Goetz of TZ Design
“Walk a few miles in Florida’s fresh salt air to give me energy and creativity.” —Patty Madden
“Reach for another piece of chocolate between sips of dark, rich coffee and wait to enjoy sailing on a warmer day.” —Bob Fox of Fox Architects
“Hold monthly inspiration workshops, which engage the whole studio in discussion and get everyone energized.” —Catherine Haley of HOK
“Take time for winter-only activities, like enjoying a roaring fire with friends.” —Peter Conant of Conant Architects
Next Q: We want to stay on top of color trends. Tell us, “What are you using most in your current projects?” E-mail us at q@interiordesign.net.
We would love your feedback!
