Jeremiah Brent Quotes

I've always loved interior design.

I've always been inspired by beautiful interiors.

I love to decorate a room - from the furniture to the objects to the books.

Interior decor is my guilty pleasure. If I'm going to splurge on something, it's more for my home than for clothes.

After student years of flat-sharing and living with other people's taste, I went into decorating overdrive when I acquired my first apartment - its floor plan not much bigger than the vintage Hermes scarves I then wore side-knotted on my head, pirate-style.

There are so many ways to decorate small spaces. One of my favorite things is throw pillows. They can add so much color to your room. You can have the same bedding for years and just switch out the throw pillows, and it looks like you have a completely new bed.

I've always loved great upholstery, and think that a great sofa is one of the most important pieces of furniture in your home.

Life is all about seating and lighting.

For me, decorating perfection means eclectic styles and collections of beautiful things like pottery, pillboxes and match strikers.

Decorating has always been my hobby.

I'm just not very interested in decoration.

Interior decoration partly thrives on being social.

I've always wanted to design a home collection line because growing up, I was obsessed with reorganizing my room.

I always begin a room with the rug; it is literally the foundation of the space. I then go on to the furniture.

Adding throws or blankets that have great texture over the back of a sofa adds some interesting personality really quickly and will visually change the room.

There are simple, small things you can do that really will impact the space. Things like changing out your curtain panels to something that adds a fresh new feel. Or maybe a smart pattern. Also swapping out an area rug, throws and pillows can be done in no time, and really have a dramatic effect.

I've been fascinated with interior design for as long as I can remember.

I'm suspicious of places that look decorated. I can understand why people do it, but you see too many cushions or a piece of fabric hanging and it's, like, 'Ugh!' A good house with good art will always work, no matter what.

I don't have any furniture of mine in my room.

I grew up in a small town in Washington State, so I wasn't really aware of costume design as a career growing up, but I loved clothes. I remember I saved all my money, and the first thing that I bought was a white blazer, which was to the horror to my parents. But I have always had a strange connection with clothing.

I'm fascinated by furniture design and interiors, and I want to try designing all that stuff.

From when I was a really small girl on, I would pick every fabric, every color on the walls, and I was always redecorating. Like once every couple of months I would redecorate my room. I had a full wall that was all collage - the entire wall - when I was in junior high. And then it would kind of morph with me as I was growing.

Every decorative piece in this house is my feeling, my choice.

Rearranging furniture, adding some candles, or making even small tweaks can really make the difference.

You can learn the subtle language of interior style, but many people simply buy it. If you put yourself in the hands of someone who knows what they are doing, you can be confident it will look good.
