Our commitment to you and how Design Lines operates remains unchanged.

✨ Proud Momma Moment ✨

Relationships are built on character, trust, honesty, truth, laughter but most importantly support for each other.

As I enter the final chapter of my 44-year career, I am choosing to spend this time with my legacy clients that I have come to cherish and truly designing from a place of joy.

When I started my career, I LOVED design, and the coolest part is….I still do today!

So, it is with enthusiasm that I will be passing my entrepreneurship spirit to Hilaire with the opening of her own company Four E & Company . In fact, I am proud to say I am one of her clients!

If you ever interacted with Design Lines Signature in the past 15 years, you know that she was instrumental in the operational excellence of the firm and has elevated the brand to what it is today. She will continue to do this for me, through her new business. Hilaire’s strengths are in client relations, maximizing operational efficiencies, strengthening the overall financial health of the business and brand and communication strategies. Her chapter is just beginning, and I am so excited I get a front row seat to it.

May we remember and honor the men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice this Memorial Day.

Plus listen towards the end to hear in detail my small but meaningful way of encouraging the next generation of designers. 😉

Thanks LuAnn for having me!
