“Design must seduce, shape, and perhaps more importantly, evoke an emotional response.”
~ April Greiman
Excerpted from Style Statement: Live by your own design

*The first word is your foundation. The second is your twist. To read more about the Look, Feel and Spirit of gentility, read on.

Spirit: Designed absolutely, positively adores simplicity and things that “make the most sense.” They applaud original thinking and effective systems and are innately innovative, inventive, strategic, and intentional. Designed loves to know what the plan is or to improve on it. In pursuit of solutions or creativity, Designed can be an excellent researcher, networker, brainstormer, and visionary. They seek out contemporaries and modernizers to nourish their spirit and intellect. On a bad day, Designed can be overly willful or get stuck on the details of a strategy. They strive for mastery and excellence in focused areas. Visual expression is frequently of utmost importance to Designed. They are sincerely open to new ideas and ways of doing things, yet confident in their own perspectives and opinions. Designed dispenses advice when asked but does so with tremendous consideration and restraint.

Look & Feel: Modern, contemporary; could be futuristic. Tailored, custom-made, architectural. Designed loves patterns, graphics, icons, simplified complexity, and symbols. Appreciate state-of-the-art, handcrafted, and efficient construction.
