These last few months I have been distancing myself from interior design. It's hard for me to feel disconnected from interior design, but there is nothing that I can do about it at the moment. If you are not in love... you are not in love. I hope that this is just a temporary thing and eventually my passion for interior design will come back. I can't overthink about it because it hurts me thinking about it. I feel sad... I love interior design, but interior design might not love me!? So I am slowly falling in love with another design path. It might be just a quick romance... maybe a Spring romance... But at this moment I'v got to confess that I am madly in love with flower farming and floral design.
Recently I bought a book about both subjects, and I have been enchanted by the power of flowers. The author is a "rock star" in the field of floral farming and design. Her name is Erin Benzakein of Floret Farm. I have listened to a few interviews with her and she is truly a down-to-earth person, very knowledgeable and passionate about what she does. If you are interested in learning how to grow your own cut flowers I highly recommend for you to get this book. She teaches you how to grow beautiful cut flowers on a small piece of land. Of course, she is growing with a commercial intention but you can grow for only your on enjoyment; and to keep your home filled with fresh flowers all year long (depending where you live).

Hey, interior designers, do you have phases of 'disconnections' with interior design?

Dream, work hard and keep going…”
