The Magic of Reinvention with Susan Strickland

Introduction
In the ever-changing world of interior design, what's in vogue today may be passé tomorrow. So even though this blast from the past living room isn't trending, Susan Strickland often says, "Design is not just about following trends; it's about creating timeless spaces that bring joy."
The Ebb and Flow of Trends
Trends come and go, but your home should always be a sanctuary. If you love a particular style, Susan believes in making it work for you, regardless of its current popularity. #TimelessDesign #PersonalStyle
What's Out and What's In
Farewell to All-White Spaces
While all-white and all-gray rooms were all the rage, Susan has noticed a shift towards warmer, earthier tones. "People are craving more personality and durability in their homes," she says. #EarthTones #WarmColors
The Evolution of Shiplap
Shiplap has had its moment, but Susan sees potential for reinvention. "It's all about how you style it. Whether it's painting it or incorporating ledges, shiplap can still be a cool architectural detail," she notes. #ShiplapReinvented #ArchitecturalDetails
The Return of Divided Rooms
Open-concept floor plans are giving way to more traditionally divided rooms. "The need for personal space and functionality has never been more apparent," Susan observes. #PersonalSpace #FunctionalDesign
The Rise of Rich Colors
"People are no longer afraid to venture into color," Susan states. From rich blues and greens to saturated yellows, color is making a grand comeback. #BoldColors #ColorfulInteriors
