in the series: Designers at Home!  I am very excited to welcome Francine Gardner of <a href="http://www.interieurs.com/" target="_blank">Interieurs</a>!   Francine is an amazing designer and has traveled the world in search of inspiration.  I am absolutely in love with her home, it is so personal and beautiful beyond words.  Francine was nice enough to answer a few questions for us about her life, her business and her design presence below.  I hope you enjoy a glimpse into her life and take time to discover her shop in New York the next time you are there, I know I will.</div><br /><div

When designing for myself, I often need to compromise on the level of contractor, finishes etc..I do not plan or follow the process as I would for a client. I buy what I love regardless of the period, the importance of a piece of artwork for instance. My personal space is to be lived in, with the constant influx of friends, my son's friends, pets, kids… When I design for a client, I start with floor plans, look at the light, the flow and am extremely focused. Once a presentation is approved, I start the installation process and shopping process. I practically custom design everything for my clients, from kitchen to bathrooms,  cabinetry, interior architecture, pool etc… Then I go shopping for the unique pieces that will give the house its personality, always keeping in mind the client's lifestyle and budget.</span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal">  </div><div class="MsoNormal"></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div><span id="OLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION"> <div class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent: -.25in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">2.</span><span style="color: black; font-size: 7.0pt;">    <span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">  <span style="font-size: small;"><i> </i></span></span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="color: black;">As designers, we tend to love many different styles and items.  How did you select the style for your home and why?</span></i></span></span></div><div class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent: -.25in;"><br /></div></span> <div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">My current home evolved over the years.
