    Signature: art – either wall art or "floor art," meaning area rugs – small, medium, large!

  2. Priyanka S says:

    My signature piece would be indoor / outdoor water feature. There is nothing more soothing and relaxing than the sound of water. There is a perfect water feature to go with every room (no matter how big or small) and every decor (from modern to classic).

    As a designer My signature piece would be geometric patterned draperies

  4. My Organizing Friend says:

    as a Professional Organizer, I have to say … If I was a designer, my signature piece would be furniture that serves more than one purpose. Hidden storage space for extra pillows, toys, throws, books, or etc … would make cleaning up a quick process and would maximize living space. … Couch/Hidden Storage or a Murphy Bed/Desk would be nice also.

  5. Mine would have to be mirrored pieces.

  6. Denise Casper says:

    I would have a warm, green, nature inspired space with beautiful color infused one of a kind hand blown functional glass pieces from Hot Sand, Asbury Park New Jersey.

    without a doubt, area rugs……..so many new soft, bright, bold, muted, abstract, shapes and naps. You can transform an area in the blink of an eye. Love my rugs!!!!!!

    My signature piece would be nature (i.e. polished stones, flowers from the garden planted just outside the window, water features[Fountains]) Each time you would walk into the room you could for a moment forget your worries and let the sights, smells and sounds take you away on a small vacation.

  21. justducky58 says:

    My signature would be to inject a piece of beautiful glass to each room, maybe stained glass, maybe art glass, maybe….. there are so many colors that it would be easy to compliment the work done in that room.

  22. debbie says:

    Earthtones are the best,they never go out of style. Always add either a punch of black or red to spice it up.

  23. Katie S. says:

    I think it would be great to have a touch of extreme softness in everyroom. Whether it be super plush towels or the cushiest bedding around. There is just somthing about designing with touch and feel in mind.

  24. Nona says:

    A back splash for a chefs kitchen!

  25. Paula says:

    I think my signature pieces would include fabrics. I am a quilter/sewer and have such a love affair with fabric. They could bold or pastel, prints or solids, but more than likely something in a cotton.

  26. Michelle says:

    Large, stand out Designer sconces.

  27. Maria (Lisa) Fusco says:

    I would definately make sure that whatever room in the home I was working in had a small section for a "sanctuary"! It is a most definate in this age of stress!! It would consist of barely there , overhead, romantic lighting, the sound of soft wind chimes, as well as the sight and sound of trickling water. All of this, of course, would include a comfie place to sit and enjoy quiet time by oneself. This would definately be my signature piece/setting!

  28. Lynda M. says:

    My signature piece(s) would be sumptuious sexy enveloping beds, sheets and comforters in silks and satins. The texture must be soft and pleasing to the touch and the smell arousing.

  29. Brenda says:

    I would make it something that is personal to each homeowner. Something that shows what is the main priorities of their lives, yet ties into the decor of the room.

  30. 1naturelover says:

    I would bring a little nature into every room. It could be plants, rustic wood, botanical and animal prints and stone. I love the outdoors and have many live plants in my home. Helps your environment!

  31. I love recycled, rustic pieces. It can be a chair, a lamp, a cool table. I don't like things to look too polished and new.

  32. My signature would be pet friendly furniture. I have three dogs and a cat and they need a place to relax with their owners.

  33. Scott S. says:

    My signature design would be to bring the outdoors inside in new and exciting ways…Outside in & Inside out.

  34. Jennifer Deane says:

    My signature would be a wall of peoples family photoes or fav. pictures of great moments in their life. I think sometimes people forget to decorate the space they love with pictures & memories of the ones they love <3

  35. Kathy Persons says:

    I love Wallpaper~

  36. beth c says:

  38. Tom Scruggs says:

    At least one piece of fabulous art glass in every room, lit perfectly of course!

  39. Jamie says:

    Pink geese………just kidding. My signature would be something odd like that, a purple banana left in a bowl.

  40. Dede Day says:

    My signature design has always been "metal and wood". Ever since my child was born, I never bought anything glass to decorate with… Always something "metal or wood". I feel these things last were as glass breaks and is also dangerous around children.

  41. Megan Morgan says:

    I think mine would be area rugs. Big or small, everyone seems to have them in their homes. Least I do. I love my wood-floored living room with the big area rug. Or my kitchen, bedroom, or bathroom with the smaller throw-rugs.
    I suppose rugs, shower curtains, and window curtins would be my claim and calling card.

  42. Ginnewt says:

    A touch of Stained Glass. A transom, a mirror, a light, are a collection of frames.

  43. Lau says:

    My Sig piece would be the Tile a special one of a kind emblem/symbol to enhance the homeowners style.

  44. Carolyn says:

    I would like to see a signature piece of my daughter's photography specially designed for the client bringing in their personality to every room. She has an excellent eye for bringing in a creative piece of art using the clients as the masterpiece.

  45. Lisa says:

    My signature designs would be kitchens and baths with vibrant colors

  46. Joanne says:

    My signature piece? It would have to be a big comfortable chair with enough room for 2 people. The chair would have some kind of floral design. Nothing like curling up with a good book in a big comfy chair!

  47. HelloChris1 says:

    My signature would be all natural hand blended milk paint in natural colors; it's my way to have a "green" base to start from, and inspire me.

  48. Debbie says:

    Mirrors, every color, every design, every size, remaking vintage…love em

  49. HBuck says:

    My signature pieces would cherry-wood furniture with knotting in it. Expensive, but luxurious. Cherry just adds so much to any room.
