How do you put into words a visual style? Each word used could conjure up a different visual to each person you encounter. Descriptions relying on people's past knowledge and experience with often used words"modern" "classic" "country"etc. To me this is like trying to describe the color green.
While I am still young and exploring my style - my speciality is rooted in California design and when people ask what that is I end up using words like "global" "outdoors" "casual luxury", but I am a visual person, I am most comfortable with pictures and not words, and somehow I feel my explanations leave people still staring at me blankly.
Over the weekend, I put together this simple fun visual map, to show my visions of how the South (where I live) and California (where I came from) differ. While my style is evolving, I'd like to say I specialize in casual luxury with a California perspective.

Excellent. I think you can keep this going. The south's exotic global connection is African and Caribbean, more than we suspect.
ReplyDeleteTotally get the people "staring at me blankly" response. I hate getting asked this question. Always makes me feel like a weirdo- I'm like clean, not perfect, color, but I love white...
ReplyDeleteseems like people expect you to say a generic style and you know we just can't do that!
