More from Cara:

You’re based in New York, but have lived in LA, London and more, and you work across the world. Is it different working with local and mostly-remote clients? No, it’s all about giving my all.
How important is social media in brand awareness growth for interior designers? You can’t survive without it. And it’s free. You just have to be creative and put in the work.
We hate to talk about trends in interior design, so tell us a few materials or design elements that you think will be around forever. Nothing lasts forever. 
You have a book coming out! Tell us about the process of bringing this to life and where we can find it. It’s been my favorite thing to do ever. Can’t wait for it to be out in the world.
Who are a few women entrepreneurs in the home space you admire? Kelly Wearstler, Kelly Behun, Grade NY
