Contreras says you can't design a room without inspiration, and we expect her book will provide loads of it for those looking to feather their nests in her crisp, fresh, unexpected style. * Dallas News *
In Dream, Design, Live (Abrams), Contreras, onetime Spanish teacher, successful blogger, and, now, working designer, explores the design process through the lens of travel, inspiration, and personal style. As such, the tome is both an instructional lesson and a personal story, a great read for the design professional and enthusiast alike. * Architectural Digest *

"The 240-page volume goes beyond helpful tips and pretty pictures to show readers how to find a design approach that works best for them." * Southern Home magazine *
