so when bridging the sexes literally you
have male and female but you want to
make sure that you're decorating for
both of them not just one you ever go
into a room and there's a lot of light
and pink and florals and it just is
strictly female or everything is heavy
and straight lines and it's dark and
it's very male you want to make sure
that there's both sexes are represented
here so make sure that they both have a
say what I like to do is that I say to a
client you pick one as a female you pick
one design element as the male and then
together you're going to have to agree
on the third design detail and that way
they're both voices are heard but at the
same time they're designing together so
for instance if he really loves modern
and she really loves traditional maybe
we'll have him pick some of the
furnishings but we'll have her pick some
of the artwork and the window treatments
and then they'll come together on the
coloration so we'll put a couple of
colors out and then both of you can
decide on that just make sure that you
know you're not alienating either one
because you both live there and you want
to make sure that your design
represented who you are as a family and
as a unit
