When I began my journey in design, the prevailing idea was that beauty is the ultimate goal. Elsie De Wolfe once said, "I am going to make everything around me beautiful – that will be my life,"
But over the years, my perspective evolved, and design began to mean more to me than just visual appeal. Now, I design spaces that are not only beautiful but also functional, intentional, and unique.
Introducing A Design Lifestyle Journal:
With over fifteen years of industry experience, I have abundant knowledge to share, and I am thrilled to announce the launch of A Design Lifestyle Journal! The acronym ADL stands for 'A Design Lifestyle,' where design serves a high purpose in your everyday life. More than just a publication, I will provide expert advice, personally vetted products, and accessible resources to help you design the life you've always dreamed of. With a strong belief that design should empower, this journal aims to guide you in realizing your design goals and how to incorporate them into your home.
The Essence of ADL:
Imagine putting design at the forefront of your life, in all the areas of your home, and living your best life possible. At ADL, I overlook traditional design boundaries and embrace your vision so that we can make your home feel beautiful to YOU."Designing your home is more than just beauty; it's about creating a lifestyle that inspires and enhances your daily experience."
- Jacqueline Norrise
With over a decade of experience, ADL extends its expertise beyond conventional boundaries, fostering a lifestyle where every corner exudes purpose and charm. I create an environment that aligns with your values and beliefs to build your home into a space that reflects what truly matters to you.
The ADL Difference:
Academically speaking, interior design has seven core principles:
- balance
- harmony
- rhythm
- scale
- emphasis
- contrast
- and details
While these principles serve as the foundation of the design process, I understand that designing your home is about more than just making it visually appealing. My design services are approached with thoughtfulness, ensuring that functionality and uniqueness are carefully considered. Your home should reflect what matters to you the most!
