Description

Do you know the feeling when you walk into a room and something's off? Is it the lighting? The carpet? Maybe I should have picked up a different color couch...

Imagine having a person to talk to that listens to you, looks at your color palette and figures it all out. Every time you came home you'd have the feeling of "yes, it looks right", every time.

This is what Peg Christensen does. Winner of the Oregon Home Structure+Style Best in Design, cited in: Portland Monthly, Oregon Home, the Oregonian, HOUZZ, Pental Tile, and Pratt & Larson....

I call it the "dark arts of interior design", because it uses an entirely different part of the brain than I do, so I was honored and intrigued to talk to arguably one of the best interior designers in the Pacific Northwest.

Previously as a research scientist, Peg Christensen brings a unique perspective to the construction industry and dispelled many myths of an Interior Designer's process.

from her bio: "Peg grew up in Canada, and studied fine art at the University of Victoria, British Columbia. Coming back to the Northwest, she earned a degree in Physical Anthropology from Portland State University. Peg has been a wildlife biologist and a zookeeper (so can handle most any construction issue!), and even studied whales and birds in the Antarctic."

It was an absolute pleasure to get to know Peg and her approach to interior design.

My main take away is that there isn't a list of "must haves", or "top 10 things you should do", each process is unique to the client. Peg gets to know you, uses her research mindset to methodically build a design around you.

If you want to be treated like royalty and have a house that comes together... give her a call. http://ashpiercedesign.com/
