At my first high-net-worth client presentation in Dubai, I showed three mood boards and asked: « Which one feels right to you? »
She looked at me and said: « Yasmine. I am not here to make decisions. I am here because you make them. »
Her lawyer does not offer five strategies and ask her to pick. Her financial advisor does not say « you decide. » They are paid for a point of view. Interior design is the same.
Presenting options can look like collaboration. Most of the time it is avoiding responsibility.
My best clients never wanted to choose between three sofas. They wanted me to tell them which one was right.

Most people think interior designers spend their days choosing cushions.
It is very far from the truth. On a daily basis, I deal with a supplier delivering the wrong finish four days before installation, a contractor on site needing a call on the electrical layout, or a client in London who is having budget questions.
None of these decisions reached the client’s inbox. The photos you see at the end of a project are the result of hundreds of moments like these; quiet, unglamorous, and completely invisible.
And that is why I love my job.
I believe rugs should complete a space, but not overwhelm it. For this project in Paris 7th, every rug was custom designed :
1) the entrance rug: shaped to echo the mirror above it, in a slightly oblong shape.
2) the living room is a large 26 sq.m. rug in abstract shades matching the furniture,
3) the dining room , being very close to the living room, would have felt very heavy if went for a different pattern or colour. I decided to go for the same rug, but instead of a standard rectangle shape, we had it cut along the exact shape of the dining table, using a cutting template.
4) the hallway rug is cut around the radiator, to keep the linear view all along
5) the bedroom rugs were adapted in colour and size to the exact shades of the walls and bed-linens.
Hand knotted and in the best silk, bamboo or wool (sometimes all combined) and in a pile height that feels plush and so warm under your feet. Rugs strongly contributes to the luxurious feel of a space.
