2020 has been a difficult year for us all.
However, our design staff at By Design Interiors worked hard to make the best out of our situations – taking this tough year in stride. We worked from home, transitioned back to the office, adjusted our protocols, masked up, and sanitized our office spaces all in order to create a safer office environment for us and our wonderful clients.
Thus, despite these changes and challenges, By Design Interiors had a pretty eventful year. There have been many changes around here. So, in adieu to 2020, we are recapping some of the highlights from this year!
1. We revamped our look!
While working from home, we took time to step back and look at ways to improve our design studio. That included: updating our website, logo, and social media.
Have you seen our new website? We excitedly launched it in August of 2020. Take a look at its fresh, new look: bydesigninteriors.com
Also, we adjusted our logo a bit. We wanted to stay true to the brand that Peggy built over 30 years ago but gave it a modern take. It was updated with a more streamlined look and added in our BDI Blue & Gold. We are so happy with the final product!
2. Updated the BDI Studio
Over the Summer, we made some updates to our resource room and work areas. It was a few cosmetic changes that helped freshen up the space. We added shelving, rearranged tables, and installed new carpet.
3. As seen in Elle Decor
2020 was an exciting year for print. By Design Interiors was featured in the ‘Excellence in Design: Houston‘ spread of ,Elle Decor‘s September 2020 issue.
