As a Design Consultant, you probably daydream and conceptualize projects that you would take on if there were no restrictions. Think about what you would create if budgets did not exist and nobody could reject your ideas. Take your time to walk the interviewer through your ideal design project. Share your inspiration and bring it to life for the interviewer.

"I love to travel and embrace other cultures. I have traveled globally and have lived in numerous countries, leading to the signature style that I have crafted today. My ideal design project would be the renovation of a residential home that takes all of these experiences and inspiration and translates them into an oasis. I would love to build a bed-and-breakfast-style resort and take a lot of inspiration from my favorite designer, Abigail Ahern. I recently took her masterclass, 'Designing Your Dream Home,' and I learned a lot from her eclectic, playful, and warm approach to design. She teaches breaking the rules and following your instinct, which I can easily do since my inspiration comes from the numerous places I have lived worldwide. This B&B-style resort would include an earthy palette, exotic botanicals, and many textures and layers. I would bring outdoor elements in, and then I would create an outdoor oasis that flowed naturally."
