She earned her degree from Fox Valley Technical College in Appleton, which is what makes her a certified expert. When asked why she chose to be a designer, she said, \u201cI love bringing out the highest potential a room has to offer. I want to make fashion meet function.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"small20-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Her desire to make fashion meet function is what makes her advice highly valuable. \u00a0As a certified designer, it is within her expertise to make colors and styles match, but also to make decisions based on the customer\u2019s convenience and their lifestyles.<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4853\" src=\"http:\/\/wenzhomefurniture.blogs.eprevue.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/113\/2017\/03\/IMG_2922-e1489680401932-576x768.jpg\" alt=\"Desiree Nasto - Interior Designer\" width=\"263\" height=\"350\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"small20-heading\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><b>Design Tip #1<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">During a recent interview at a spring showcase home (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=wL-8YWJ6frY&amp;t=178s\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff\">you can watch the full interview by clicking here<\/span>)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, Desiree talked about focal points. She describes them as \u201cThe point of interest or emphasis in a room\u201d. Desiree says, \u201cThe first thing I look for in a room when starting a project is the focal point. Usually, this is where our attention will first be drawn to. It\u2019s the foundation of the room and is what takes lead when deciding on where to place furniture.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4659\" src=\"http:\/\/wenzhomefurniture.blogs.eprevue.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/113\/2016\/10\/focal-point-tv-1-768x464.png\" alt=\"Interior Design \" width=\"413\" height=\"250\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"small20-heading\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000\">Design Tip #2<\/span><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"small20-heading\">Something to keep in mind once you understand the focal point in the room, is what type of patterns you enjoy. Mixing\u00a0patterns is a great way to create interest in a room. Desiree suggests, \u201cWhen mixing patterns it\u2019s important to have different scales. You\u2019ll want small, medium, and large patterns complementing each other instead of being in competition. This can be done with furniture, throw pillows, drapes, and rugs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"small20-heading\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4658\" src=\"http:\/\/wenzhomefurniture.blogs.eprevue.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/113\/2016\/10\/focal-point-conversation-768x544.png\" alt=\"Mixing patterns with interior design \" width=\"353\" height=\"250\" \/><\/p>\n<h1 class=\"small20-heading\"><\/h1>\n<h2 class=\"small20-heading\" style=\"text-align: left\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><b>The Average Project Takes About 2-4 Weeks from Start to Finish<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Speaking of getting started, we\u2019ve found the most common challenges our clients encounter are lack of time and the overwhelming amount of decision making.<\/p>\n<p>Get a head start by letting us help you narrow your decision making <strong>(<span style=\"color: #3366ff\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff\" href=\"http:\/\/localhost\/wenz\/in-home-design\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">click here to narrow your decisions<\/a><\/span>)<\/strong>.
