The worst thing any decorator can do is give a client the feeling that he's walking around somebody else's house; the rooms must belong to the owner, not to the decorator; and no rooms can have atmosphere unless they are used and lived in.

  • -- William Baldwin 威廉·鲍德温

任何装潢师所能做的最糟糕的事情,就是让客户觉得他在绕着别人的房子走;这些房间必须属于主人,而不是装饰师;没有房间可以有气氛,除非他们被使用和居住。
