Alexis and I took a little trip last week. Because clients of ours based in NYC are renovating their Kiawah Island home, it made more sense for us to work around their busy schedule and head north to discuss all of the design details at a time and place most convenient for them.

Designer Spotlight on Jimmy Evans, Charleston, SC
Jimmy Evans has always had an eye for design, long before Margaret Donaldson Interiors found him and began working with him years ago.
