In the June 2010 issue just hitting newsstands, Elle Decor announced their A-list Designers and the Five Designers to Watch. I am thrilled that San Francisco–based interior designer and fellow blogger, Grant K. Gibson was selected as one of the top five designers to keep your eye one. Yippee! His eclectic, yet sophisticated designs won me over too. Here are some beautiful images from his portfolio.
On Wednesday, I had the pleasure of meeting Grant at the Williams Sonoma Home store in Palo Alto's Stanford Shopping Center {btw this store is amazing... you will have to drop by if you're in the area}. Grant was discussing social media marketing trends to a room full of San Francisco Bay Area designers. We were all taken by Grant's charming, down-to-earth presence. He walked us through what social media vehicles he uses currently - blogging, facebooking and tweeting {the cute little canary wallpaper on his Twitter page was a former pet that sadly flew out his window}. To build a following on any of these sites, he encourages people to leave comments and join the online conversations. I encourage you to "follow or friend" Grant; Like his designs, he is wonderfully approachable.
