The number one residential interior designer Marc Thee debuts his first bedding collection on his website http://www.marcthee.com. For a limited time customers can get a sneak peek of Marc Thees new bedding collection on his website as well as enjoy an introductory price of 10% off.
The Marc Thee Bedding Collection is clean and classic with a tailored, menswear-look. Menswear colors accentuate the crisp white composition in each of Marc Thee's bedding collections. The bedding is meant to Mix + Match. Consumers will enjoy an exclusive line of stylish, comfortable bedding and this introductory combination is Marcs personal favorite. The embroidered duvet and shams with Taylor banded sheets has everything you need to outfit a bedroom with five-star, luxury style.
"I imagine that my bedding collection will inspire people to create their own personality in the bedroom. All of the pieces look great together in any combination, and will suit any space - from the most traditional room to the most contemporary." Marc Thee
Because the embroidery is hand-guided by a seamstress, each piece of Marc Thees collection has its own artisanal character because no strand lines are sewn identically.
Marc Thee is the founder of Marc-Michaels Interior Design, Inc. which 'Interior Design' magazine named the #1 residential design firm in the United States in 2013. He has more than 25 years of experience in high-end interior design.

Helen Morgan was always creative, but like many young women in the mid-20th century, she went to secretarial school and raised a family.
She tapped into her creative genes by taking painting classes while her children grew up. But it wasn't until Morgan was in her 40s that she decided to go back to school and study fine arts.
And so, the Pennsylvania native enrolled at the University of Pittsburgh.
It took her six years she attended classes part-time while she raised her family but she earned her degree.
"She was a trailblazer for young women somebody who reinvented herself mid-life," said her daughter Ginger Robinson of Orlando.
Morgan went on to become a successful interior designer in Pittsburgh and later Central Florida when she moved to Orlando.
Morgan died July 27 of cancer. She was 91.
Robinson said that in an era when women were starting to feel empowered, her mother became a much more liberal person.
"She decided she was going to make her mark," Robinson said.
While Morgan attended the University of Pittsburgh, she started teaching fashion academy students in Pittsburgh about textiles, fabric and other elements of interior design.

Kara McDonald took a kind of vision test and passed with flying colors and lighting, fabrics, finish, furnishings and other elements of health care interior design.
Kara McDonald, an interior designer with Miles Associates: Architecture Planning and Interiors, recently earned the American Academy of Healthcare Interior Designers Certificate. McDonald is one of 120 recipients of the certificate nationwide, and the only one in Oklahoma. She is shown at Miles Associates, 865 Research Parkway, Suite 100.
Actually, it was the American Academy of Healthcare Interior Designers Examination. McDonald, 33, an interior designer with Oklahoma City's Miles Associates: Architecture Planning and Interiors, is the first and so far only person in Oklahoma to earn the AAHID Certificate.
The exam covers acute care, ambulatory and outpatient care, long-term care, senior living, as well as medical, retail and hospitality support services, codes, guidelines and other aspects of health care interior design. Five years of experience, a portfolio review and professional references are required for anyone to attempt the exam.
McDonald's recent experience includes work at The Children's Hospital at OU Medical Center, the OU Children's Physicians Building and atrium, Presbyterian Tower and Edmond Medical Center.
Adding health care to interior design adds layers of concerns not addressed in, say, a regular office setting, such as infection control, patient health and safety and the welfare of physicians, staff and visitors, McDonald said, physical and emotional.
Thinking about the time all those people spend in a given space, and how they use it and respond to it, drives her vision, she said.
When a lot of people think about architecture, they might not think about the experience of somebody in the space, how they see it. But you're at work or using that space more than you are at home, and so it needs to be fitting to what the environment is, McDonald said.
Take a laboratory, for example.
Somebody might think that that's more technical, just dry space. But it still can be uplifting and energetic to somebody that has to be standing on their feet for long hours while they're doing research, she said.

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Interior designer Nate Berkus has been adding fantasy to homes for 16 years, inspiring people with just the right creative touch. But he's been a dog-lover even longer, and he's turning his design expertise to a half-million-dollar fantasy dog park.
Berkus, 41, has joined the creative team for the 2014 Beneful Dream Dog Park Contest. Contestants have to answer one question: "If you had $500,000 to create a Dream Dog Park where you and your best buddy can play together, what would you do?"
In Lancaster, Pa., the answer included a doggy amusement park with a tennis ball tree and a 40-foot roller coaster bridge. The park there -- the third contest winner -- opens Aug. 6.
The first park was built in Johns Creek, Ga., with a family destination theme and includes a bone-shaped bridge, two splash pads, tunnels, rubberized mulch paths and shade trees. The second park in Alabaster, Ala., has synthetic turf, agility rings, a walking trail, a fetch football field, fire hydrant goalposts and a mulch adventure path with tunnels, said Brent Gleckler, brand director for Beneful dog food.
"There is nothing I love more than being with my dog," Berkus said of sidekick Tucker, a black mutt. Together, they visit a dog park nearly every night.
The parks in Alabaster and Johns Creek have been tourist magnets. In Georgia, the city had to make 72 new parking spaces next to the park to accommodate visitors.
In Alabama, people take good care of the park,
The dog park is part the city's flagship Veteran's Park, with a ball field complex, 2.5-mile walking trail, eight pavilions with picnic tables, two playgrounds, a skateboard park and veteran's memorial, Hamm said.
Every day, they get calls from tourists asking about hours and directions.
"The more people that come to our city, the more people will stop, eat and buy gas. We are all for that. Out-of-town users are great," Hamm said. "Anybody who wants to come, we more than welcome them in town."

In Alabama, people take good care of the park, but the city does a walkthrough once a day, sprays it down twice a week and uses a biodegradable chemical once a month, city parks director Tim Hamm said.
