Famous Designer

One interior designer who inspires me is Mauro Lipparini. His simplistic nature themed houses are always designed to be pin perfect. Born in Grosseto in 1956, Mauro Lipparini graduated in 1980 from the University of Florence's Department of Architecture. The furniture is designed completely by him but manufacture by a company called Bonaldo.

Welcome!

My name is Natalie, I love art and creating creative things with my mind. I plan on going to college, I do not like high school and I can not wait to get out of here. I don't have a personal all time favorite interior designer, I like many. I don't plan on doing anything with this blog, just simply doing my school work.
