As an interior designer, @shirleyparksdesign spent As an interior designer, @shirleyparksdesign spent a decade helping clients turn ho-hum homes into architectural gems. But when her children hit middle school, she decided she needed to take a beat and focus on family. But that didn’t mean giving up her passion for interior design.

Plus, I feel like I’ve earned the equivalent of a master’s degree through my four renovations and I’m excited to pass on what I’ve learned to my clients.” For the full story and more photos, go to the link in our bio. 📸: @christopherstark.
