C Stewart Design Approach
C Stewart’s design approach is to work with clients to define their personal style and implement a design plan that incorporates it. Callie believes interiors should reflect a client’s own sense of aesthetics. She may suggest: updating existing upholstered furniture, using inherited and collected objects and adding pieces that reflect the resident’s interests and passions.
Her goal is to design interiors using tasteful, practical and comfortable furnishings that fit the client’s budget. She believes that “lifestyle” interiors are not just a privilege, but a necessity!
Callie’s first objective is to create interiors that make the customer feel: “there’s no place like home”.
