When did your love affair with design begin? How did it make you feel?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Anne-Marie Barton: <\/strong>There were two defining moments. One was as a 12-year-old; my first project and my first dream was to design my own bedroom. I wanted a safari bedroom with a swing chair\u2014it was the &#8217;70s. Flash forward, and I had parents that built eight homes growing up. They didn&#8217;t really have a lot of education in it, but they had a ton of courage. Our cars were filled with samples\u2014they would always roll as you took a turn. It was kind of in my world, my wheelhouse, to think about it. When I met my husband and we married, he had a little house made of concrete. Five years go by, and I said, \u201cI think it&#8217;s time we build a home.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was 29 years old. I had just had my third baby. And I went about acting as the builder because we really could not afford a real builder. I proceeded to just figure it out, and I absolutely loved the build. I loved working with the subcontractors. I liked asking questions. We tore down the old house, and six months to the day, we moved into a brand new house. I had no idea that it should take longer. But because of the organization and the money and the budgeting that I had to do, it was extremely intentional. As a designer, we&#8217;re so much more interior architects than we are decorators. I love the rigor of a build and the architectural aspects.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"110103\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Decor-Pieces-819x1024.webp\" alt=\"Anne-Marie Barton decor pieces\" class=\"wp-image-110103\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Decor-Pieces-819x1024.webp 819w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Decor-Pieces-240x300.webp 240w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Decor-Pieces-768x960.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Decor-Pieces.webp 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"110097\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Entryway-819x1024.webp\" alt=\"Anne-Marie Barton entryway\" class=\"wp-image-110097\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Entryway-819x1024.webp 819w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Entryway-240x300.webp 240w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Entryway-768x960.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Entryway.webp 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-tell-us-a-bit-about-your-past-and-what-led-up-to-your-current-role-as-the-founder-of-anne-marie-barton-the-interior-design-brand\"><strong>A: Tell us a bit about your past and what led up to your current role as the founder of Anne-Marie Barton, the interior design brand.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Anne-Marie: <\/strong>You know how we think we know who we are when we&#8217;re in college? We&#8217;re trying to decide what we\u2019re going to do, but in truth, it is an organic process. Let it roll and tumble you into who you are. And so for me, it took courage and being open. It took being prepared.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I started in a laundry room with one file drawer. No employees. And then as it went, always with an eye toward not taking on too many people, not too many projects, so that we could always remain the principal on a project. And that&#8217;s been my goal from day one. Just doing your own accounting, doing your taxes, really knowing how to do things, and caring about those details and asking the questions. I think that&#8217;s good for the environment of the reader to realize that it can happen later. And it can happen as long as you&#8217;ve given the hard work. You&#8217;ve learned something. There&#8217;s something real behind you.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery aligncenter has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"110095\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Primary-Bedroom.webp\" alt=\"Anne-Marie Barton primary bedroom\" class=\"wp-image-110095\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Primary-Bedroom.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Primary-Bedroom-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Primary-Bedroom-768x576.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Primary-Bedroom-600x450.webp 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-you-have-been-working-on-lots-of-product-collaborations-recently-i-want-to-hear-about-each-of-them-but-first-what-led-you-to-decide-to-expand-your-interior-firm-to-the-product-design-side\"><strong>A: You have been working on lots of product collaborations recently! I want to hear about each of them, but first, what led you to decide to expand your interior firm to the product design side?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Anne-Marie: <\/strong>Well, nothing but the enticement of creativity. I cannot believe how much fun moonlighting is with licensing and design. I found that I had the capacity to work my day job, which is a heavy-laden job. But to go from that and have these special bursts of design ideas and be able to use them and take them to people that appreciate design, it&#8217;s been so enticing to have an opportunity like that. It started through others asking me. And what a compliment it is, I didn&#8217;t know it was possible. When they asked the first time, \u201cWill you do a rug line?\u201d I&#8217;m like, huh? But I had done so many rugs with them. My first answer was yes; we&#8217;ll figure it out.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When Visual Comfort asked, it came from having seen the metal works that I love to do that are just intrinsically a part of my thread, my chemistry, which is to create with the hands and have an artisan experience and to be appreciated for that. That\u2019s what I actually just love to do. And then the idea of somebody possibly helping me do it and getting it out there so it&#8217;s accessible\u2014those are all very attractive things. Whereas in my daily life, I&#8217;m very heavy laden in a long build project of many kinds. This is a very sexy idea to like. There&#8217;s nothing so satisfying as when you&#8217;re doing pure design that&#8217;s going to have your name on it. And it&#8217;s oozing from you and not being overly guided by the brand. It&#8217;s astonishing. I can&#8217;t believe I&#8217;ve been so lucky.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.visualcomfort.com\/us\/c\/our-designers\/anne-marie-barton\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"110096\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Decor-819x1024.webp\" alt=\"Decor by Anne-Marie Barton\" class=\"wp-image-110096\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Decor-819x1024.webp 819w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Decor-240x300.webp 240w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Decor-768x960.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Decor.webp 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Sconce by Anne-Marie Barton for Visual Comfort<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.visualcomfort.com\/us\/c\/our-designers\/anne-marie-barton\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"110099\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Interior-Design-Pieces-819x1024.webp\" alt=\"Interior design pieces by Anne-Marie Barton\" class=\"wp-image-110099\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Interior-Design-Pieces-819x1024.webp 819w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Interior-Design-Pieces-240x300.webp 240w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Interior-Design-Pieces-768x960.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Interior-Design-Pieces.webp 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Light by Anne-Marie Barton for Visual Comfort<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-tell-me-about-the-collaborations-you-are-currently-working-on-rugs-lighting-faucets-furniture\"><strong>A: Tell me about the collaborations you are currently working on. Rugs, lighting, faucets, furniture?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Anne-Marie: <\/strong>Right now I\u2019m working on outdoor furniture designs with an Italian company. I\u2019m also working on some tubs through Landmade, who I&#8217;m doing all the faucet design for in Portugal, which will come out soon.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-is-there-a-moment-that-you-recall-that-has-been-the-most-surprising-on-your-journey-into-product-design-challenging-or-exciting\"><strong>A: Is there a moment that you recall that has been the most surprising on your journey into product design? Challenging or exciting.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Anne-Marie: <\/strong>I think the length of time that is involved with licensing is to be respected. It comes for a reason. You want high quality. You want the design absolutely nailed. And I do believe that the length of time is directly related to the reverence toward the final design. I will draw, I will conceive, and then I like the stewing. I like the amount of time that I&#8217;ve been allowed to refine those designs and to develop that third eye. So even though I come in with a splash of this and that, I want the opportunity to continue to refine. So the surprise is, wow, you don&#8217;t draw one drawing and we&#8217;re done. It&#8217;s in their hands.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;m surprised how much collaboration is involved to where we can refine and define these licensed items in the very best way and make them intentional. That&#8217;s where relationships grow with these brands. I&#8217;m grateful for that. I think that my second biggest surprise is how relationship-driven licensing is. They begin to have this level of trust, and then they begin to want more, and then they&#8217;re waiting for your voice. And it&#8217;s just such an exciting relationship. I love that there&#8217;s this mutual appreciation and collaboration. And that&#8217;s when you know you&#8217;re in good relationships.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"110412\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Adorne-Shroom-Anne-Marie-Barton-Rugs-with-Eliko-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Adorne Shroom Rug by Anne-Marie Barton available exclusively through Eliko Rugs by David Ariel\" class=\"wp-image-110412\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Adorne-Shroom-Anne-Marie-Barton-Rugs-with-Eliko-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Adorne-Shroom-Anne-Marie-Barton-Rugs-with-Eliko-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Adorne-Shroom-Anne-Marie-Barton-Rugs-with-Eliko-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Adorne-Shroom-Anne-Marie-Barton-Rugs-with-Eliko.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Rug by Anne-Marie Barton available exclusively through Eliko Rugs by David Ariel<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-any-advice-for-other-designers-looking-to-design-products\"><strong>A: Any advice for other designers looking to design products?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Anne-Marie: <\/strong>Have courage. It is not for the faint of heart to show off your designs and to have the competence and the belief in what the world needs now. But that&#8217;s a place that is best to come from, where you have a passion and a true faith in your design. And it becomes palpable to those that you present to. It has to be that real, and it has to run through your veins that this is what it should be next, that you know and you feel that this is the type of design that people are hungry for. That is something they&#8217;re looking for. I didn&#8217;t know that, but I realized that part of the reason, most likely, that these things have gone forward is really my own personal faith in my aesthetic. And that depth is so critical.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bykoket.com\/guilty-pleasures\/upholstery\/mia-sofa.php?utm_source=LH_Blog_Article&amp;utm_medium=banner&amp;utm_campaign=Banner_Article&amp;utm_content=mia_sofa\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"130\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/kk-mia-sofa-750.jpeg\" alt=\"koket mia sofa\" class=\"wp-image-61325\" style=\"width:500px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/kk-mia-sofa-750.jpeg 750w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/kk-mia-sofa-750-300x52.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-if-you-were-to-name-one-thing-that-you-believe-contributed-most-to-your-success-what-would-it-be\"><strong>A: If you were to name one thing that you believe contributed most to your success, what would it be?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Anne-Marie: <\/strong>Enthusiasm.

We&#8217;ve set it up as a sanctuary, and the absolute intent is to bring others to this home and this experience.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s meant to bring that sense of wellness and tranquility that not only do we need, but the ocean gives us. And the way I approached all of the design was more unified and more, I want to say, demure and kind of an internal beauty. The home is meant to deliver that. And I saw it last night in the way that I envisioned it and wanted. The whole reason why we even do our jobs is that moment when they see it and they feel it. And I just had that. So that would have to be my favorite.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-what-is-your-favorite-part-of-your-job\"><strong>A: What is your favorite part of your job?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Anne-Marie: <\/strong>The transformation from pencil to plans to elevations to tactile finishes and then to a finished product that is completely unexpected. Clients have rarely gone through such an experience. Not everyone in the world gets to have this experience. So, it is sort of sacred that you can create and you can deliver something that actually affects the way they live. So I believe the beauty that we give does change lives, and it does change the way people feel. And that is my opportunity\u2014that&#8217;s why I do it.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-7 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"798\" data-id=\"110102\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Kitchen.webp\" alt=\"Anne-Marie Barton kitchen\" class=\"wp-image-110102\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Kitchen.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Kitchen-300x234.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Kitchen-768x599.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Kitchen-90x70.webp 90w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-do-you-have-a-favorite-material\"><strong>A: Do you have a favorite material?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Anne-Marie: <\/strong>I&#8217;d have to say that working with bronze and brass materials and cultivating, integrating, designing finishes on those materials and then indulging in them to create designs where they&#8217;re highly bespoke and integrated. And that is probably my differentiation from others. I&#8217;m kind of a metalsmith. I&#8217;m at the fabrication shop in the mornings. In those hours, we&#8217;re spurring new ideas. I&#8217;m touching things. I&#8217;m deciding things. I&#8217;m leaving myself open. So I think the metalsmith is probably the most unique about my skills or my love affairs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-what-empowers-you\"><strong>A: What empowers you?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Anne-Marie: <\/strong>Experience. And frankly, I am so grateful for the years behind me that give me a place now of complete confidence and a ton of knowledge that I&#8217;m using daily, whether I&#8217;m in the middle of architecture or building a house or design. I love that I have all of that behind me and that it\u2019s taught me that I can speak with confidence. I can talk about budgets, and I can nail it. Because guess what? It&#8217;s cool to have that wisdom. And I think that&#8217;s something I&#8217;m really proud of\u2014I really want to give that.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When I&#8217;m doing my Instagram or my reels and these things, I&#8217;m most of the time trying to give people some kind of knowledge that they can take away and use themselves. It would be so selfish if I didn&#8217;t share it. And I mean, ideally, my goal is really to do a master class for these younger designers and even architects. I want to share it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-8 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"110104\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Outdoor-Seating-Area-819x1024.webp\" alt=\"Anne-Marie Barton outdoor seating area\" class=\"wp-image-110104\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Outdoor-Seating-Area-819x1024.webp 819w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Outdoor-Seating-Area-240x300.webp 240w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Outdoor-Seating-Area-768x960.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Outdoor-Seating-Area.webp 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"110105\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Interior-Design-Work-819x1024.webp\" alt=\"Interior design work by Anne-Marie Barton\" class=\"wp-image-110105\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Interior-Design-Work-819x1024.webp 819w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Interior-Design-Work-240x300.webp 240w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Interior-Design-Work-768x960.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Interior-Design-Work.webp 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"110106\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Basement-Living-Room.webp\" alt=\"Basement living room designed by Anne-Marie Barton\" class=\"wp-image-110106\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Basement-Living-Room.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Basement-Living-Room-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Basement-Living-Room-768x576.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Anne-Marie-Barton-Basement-Living-Room-600x450.webp 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-do-you-have-any-mottos-you-live-by-or-favorite-quotes\"><strong>A: Do you have any mottos you live by?

And that is that anything practical can be beautiful. Even your laundry room can look beautiful. Anything\u2014we can get around practical. We can serve it up in a beautiful way.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think another might be that the career of interior designers is filled with two qualities\u2014grit and grace. We&#8217;re in a man&#8217;s world in a lot of parts of our job, so how do we remain the voice and the advocate with the client? As an interior designer, we&#8217;re the umbrella. We&#8217;re the one who makes sure that it goes from start to finish. Well, we&#8217;re with all of these men, shall we say.

I&#8217;m hoping to be in a position where I can share more and inform more for those that are coming up, that are just beginning, so that I can provide shortcuts to this wonderful world of interior design. And I think what we&#8217;re seeing is we&#8217;re going to be doing more hotels, more lodges, more restaurants. I&#8217;m loving that part of my world, as opposed to just high-end residential.
