Sometimes relocation is about more than just editing, packing, and installing. More times than not, relocation incorporates updating.

We recently worked with clients who had lived in their home for 60 years.

Last October, we introduced you to one of our CMFTO™ Featured Artisans: Photographer Barbara Morley. (Click here to read the original post.) At the time, Barbara was working on a very special piece for a very special project.

Sometimes the easiest way to refresh an existing design is to add touches of the same color throughout the space. For instance, in a recent project we were inspired by the island of Capri and all the luscious blues associated with that remarkable place.

Over the years, our clients have come to rely on our extensive rolodex of reliable and gifted artisans and resources. At CMFTO, we pride ourselves on our ability to recognize extraordinary talent, and while we can’t share ALL our secrets, we thought it would be fun to highlight a few of our favorite artisans throughout the year.

It’s a new year, and it’s time to share with you our TOP TIP for a new neutral. While we still love Alaskan Skies (which we already shared with you), we can’t get enough of our new favorite: Barren Plain

Barren Plain is the perfect neutral as it lends itself to both warm and cool palettes.
