About Ruthie

My background in architectural photography, interiors, furniture, and curation has kept me busy and curious. Everywhere I look, I see possibilities for inspired combinations and beautiful spaces. I’m a total pattern-mixing nerd! You can almost always find me with my face in a magazine or researching emerging trends and design shows. It’s a never ending source of fascination and inspiration for me.

Her spare time is spent:

In my free time, I love fostering senior dogs (the older, the better) with GoldenBark Foundation and the Humane Society, digging in the dirt, planting flowers, and creating my little dream world. There’s also my adorably chubby Siamese cat, Hot Dog (yes, really!), who snuggles right in for his favorite Harry Potter marathon. Believe it or not, he loves it all and has his very own little flock of Hedwigs. “You’re a wizard, Hot Dog.”

Her favorite food:

My favorite foods are pizza and french fries. Once upon a time, I had a shirt made for myself that said, “I’m high maintenance and love fries.” Only half of that is true now.

She starts her day with:

A healthy dose of caffeine in the form of a freshly opened cold Diet Coke starts my day off right as I choose which pair of colorful glasses to wear.
