The Smart Design Guide to Your House and Garden is divided into 4 sections.

Section 1:

You'll never waste precious time (read money) on designers again once you know how to use design as a problem solving activity. Learn the significance of your home environment. I will teach you how to assess what you need. You add the things you want.

After some time in an environment such as this tranquil country lane you couldn't help but feel invigorated, rejuvenated, alive. Section 1 tells how we can make our homes into a place where we get the health and lifestyle benefits we need to succeed in life.

Section 2:

Let me teach you insider strategies to stress-free home interiors. You'll save hours of aggravation once you know what you need from each room of your home.

This glorious bedroom setting shows some of the many desirable features of a smartly designed home. Restful, muted colors accented by fresh flowers and fruit sharpen your appetite in the crisp morning air while allowing the eye and mind to relax and recharge. Direct outdoor access supplements the healthy lifestyle image. *

Section 3:

Discover the strategies designers use to create your ideal garden environment. Ensure that your outdoor space is designed to complement your home and lifestyle.

Section 4:

Flow and color make a house a home. You'll never unwittingly be taken advantage of by Realtors and designers again. I will teach you how to choose and use color. Ensure you know how to use your home's good points. If it doesn't flow, it won't work well. I also show you the fun and ancient art of Feng Shui as it relates to the use of color and placement of items around your home.
