INTERIOR DESIGNER THERESA OBERMOSER ON GETTING A HOME PARTY-READY
-
Since founding her eponymous design studio, Theresa Obermoser has become renowned for her stylish, social interiors, aided in no small part by her award-winning work in the hospitality business. Here, she shares some professional insights.
Lighting is super important. It's one of the most powerful elements in an interior design. We ensure we layer the lighting in every room, from ceiling and wall to floor and table. By doing this you can play around with different combinations to create the right mood for a particular event. Dimmers are a must. And remember: the right lighting can make your guests look like Hollywood stars.
