I too am a Gemini and while I take astrology with a gigantic grain of salt, that list pretty much describes me.

and yes, I too am glad you no longer work for Westin.

It reminded me of 20 years ago when I took 3 Forum courses. I loved it at the time and it made a big difference then. Of course, now I think I want a re-do! Also, I just started a blog on a whim a few weeks ago, katiebgreen.wordpress.com and it IS work! I enjoy it, but not at your pace. I'll keep reading 😉

It reminded me of the reason I resigned from my corporate world .. after getting a promotion and a raise .. it wasn’t about money … but following our passion. When one door closes, another one opens. Have a beauuutiful and ‘colourful’ day ~ Ada

Interestingly enough, I have a MA in Psychology, and now am a designer, but communication—the way to be effective, assertive, etc, is essential to working with clients in any field!

Another case of when one door closes another opens. Thanks!

Hooray for you, Maria! I love it when people communicate effectively and are open and transparent. I wish I had taken a Landmark course before I willingly left my job (before they might have fired me if I persisted in being who I am). So now I need to find me a Landmark course to figure out what my next step should be.

I was thrown off with the terms because on Design Inc.’s website they listed all of Sarah Richardson’s team members as Designers or Stylists and I wondered what a stylist was because I thought they were either junior or senior designers.

Thank you again. I love your blog.

Designs kitchens, makes structural changes, etc.

A Decorator faciliates space planning, selects fabrics, furniture, window coverings, toss cushions, designs built-ins and picks out finishes such as tile, granite, etc.

A stylist is someone that finishes with the details, places the coffee tables books with the vase and candleholders on the coffee table. One might hire a stylist for a photo shoot to make the room look like a magazine. (There’s the least amount of $$ in this job however.)

And I thought this blog was only about design – what a bonus! 🙂

I’d appreciate it if someone would explain the difference between Designer, Decorator and Stylist. From what I understand the key difference is that a Designer can make structual changes to a building and a Decorator cannot. Where does a Stylist fit in? Is it another word for Decorator?
