Dining Menu: Yesterday — Today — Tomorrow

For a very long time Dining Rooms have been dressed in formal attire from a restricted wardrobe. That is in the past. Now, as with the title of this Design House, 'Casa Couture' for the interior, is about unveiling a lot about the people who live there through the elements of design and decoration — the display of unique acquisitions from around the globe old and new, the lines of modern furnishing styles and the simplicity of the architectural detailing. This tells about the present. Michelle Pilon has set the stage in this room for the unveiling of a 'dining' scene a little ways into the future with the help of some 'new age' gadgetry. The surprise ingredient of this Dining Room space resides only in your imagination!


About Michelle Pilon

 

Michelle Pilon Interiors Incorporated is a full-service interior design firm with commissions in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, Miami and New York. Since the early 1990s, the company repertoire includes residential and corporate spaces, retail and hospitality, medical facilities and new construction commissions.

Pilon's commitment to creating unique interior spaces underscore her creativity, versatility and flair that are punctuated with visual attitude ("rooms with style and spirit") while remaining faithful not only to the architectural envelope but also to the elements of design. Pilon's holistic approach to each commission — in terms of architecture and design, decoration and lifestyle — is the product of her diverse background in design/build, international business and feng shui environmental evaluations.

A list of interior collaborations, prior to opening her own firm, include collaborations with renowned architectural and design firms whose work has been featured in nationally acclaimed publications such as Veranda, Southern Accents, House Beautiful, and Traditional Home. Her design firm was awarded the "Grand Foyer" for the 2006 Loudoun Arts Council 'Rust Manor Sanctuary Show House'. She has been active in the design community of Washington, D.C., most notably as a board member with the Washington Chapter of the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID) and as an award recipient for Distinguished Service.
