DCOTA showcased its interior design Wintermarket 2014 on Feb
5th and 6th, highlighting trends, innovations, and introducing new collections
created by some of the industry’s most respected and talented designers.
In addition to Open House programs hosted by many of the
showrooms, keynote speakers offered their personal approach to life-enhancing
design, and illustrated how to bring high style into every room in the home. Everyone
can incorporate beauty and elegance into their personal design scheme.

Clodagh’s inspiration comes from growing up in Ireland and
learning to appreciate the authenticity and the delicate balance of nature. Her
approach to design is that in order to create true wellbeing, each room should integrate
the five senses along with the elements – wood, metal, fire, earth, water.
Alexa Hampton has certainly inherited her father’s (Mark
Hampton) talents and great attention to detail from the architectural pieces to
the smallest tassel, every room reflects the personality of the client.
The legendary Mario Buatta, using great humor, involved the
audience in his discussion of his English Country House style. In the design
field for 50 years, Mr. Buatta’s approach is traditional enhanced with antiques
and unique pieces to create sumptuous interiors.
This was a very special market bringing together diverse
philosophies and styles and innovative collections. I came away inspired with a
notebook filled with new ideas and insights.
