Connecticut Interior Designer Kati Curtis talked about creating spaces that felt like refuge in houses and I learned from Philip Gorrivan that he completely disapproves of wallpaper being on one wall of a room only (“It always looks like a value proposition, not design when that happens.” Read: they cheaped out when I wanted to wallpaper the ceiling and all four walls in the bedroom.) Alan Tanksley discussed working with collections and how respectful designers have to be in dealing with things that people love.
