On a recent trip to France, I was awestruck by the natural and architectural design that is such a part of daily life there. I know this beauty is everywhere but often we are just too busy or distracted to notice and appreciate it.
Our mantra this year at Turn Key Interiors is to SLOW DOWN and enjoy the process, knowing the result will be better for it in the end.
One of the reasons travel is so renewing, whether it is local or a bit afar, is because without the daily distractions of schedules, phones, and other interruptions of living our lives, we are able to actually stop and pay attention to the beauty that abounds. We are also on a slower pace that allows us to focus without distraction and take time to live that way, too.
Our hope in sharing this blog with you is to help us all pause and take notice of our surroundings and our world as we live in it daily. Asking ourselves: What can be better? What needs to be dropped by the wayside? What shall we spend more time on to get an ultimately better result? I recently told a friend that I don’t live to design, I design so I can get on with my living. I think this is true for all of us but I we must pause and enjoy the process, as well as be excited about the final result. . . remembering that, like the Roman Aqueduct in Nimes, form and function were not built in a day!
Welcome to our blog Gates and Moore as we pause along the way.
