A New Face


We brought Amber on as an intern in April of 2008. It was the first time we had an intern at Diane Keaton Interiors but we thought we should try it out. We enjoyed it more then we thought we would and really loved Amber. She is outgoing, friendly and fun to have around.



She kept coming back after her internship hours were fulfilled. We thought; “she must like us”? We knew we really enjoyed having her around and felt she added value to our company. She has fresh ideas and a great color sense. Amber has brought excitement to our designs and new energy to our office. We knew that adding her to the team would be a benefit not only to us but our clients as well. In October 2008 we added her on as the Design Assistant.

Our clients have considered her a welcomed addition, if we show up with out her to meetings they always ask, “Where’s Amber?” She loves finding solutions to design dilemmas and specifying surfaces to make the space beautiful.

In her free time Amber enjoys gardening and spending time with her friends and family. She loves to travel and has been to places like; Australia, New Zealand, Mexico and Canada. Amber is currently attending Portland Community College and will be graduating with her Associates in Interior Design in the Winter of 2009 and plans to continue her education at the Portland Art Institute in January.

Necessity Creates Luxury!



What is Luxury?

It is taking the ordinary and making it exceptional.

When you are in need of a light you could very easily spend a couple of dollars to buy a light bulb and hang it from a wire. No doubt this would get the job done. It would be providing a light source which is your ultimate goal.



But is that what you desire in your home?

The light bulb will not suggest the emotions you are looking to create. Having a stunning fixture in a room it will create the atmosphere you are craving.
The question is what ambiance are you looking to invent?





What is your luxury? Where do you discover your luxury and how do you form it?

Luxury is about the experience!
When you are surrounded by great things you become inspired and dream of infinite possibilities.
