Designers Spotlight

The designer that I would like to hightlight this week is Sabrina Soto. She is a native of Miami, FL and the first generation of her Cuban family to be born in the United States. She started to host for a series on TLC, MTV, and a web-based seried on Yahoo, in which she intervied recording artist and celebrities. Along with her hosting and design duties on HGTV's "Get it Sold" where she does home staging, she also appear on various shows and specials, including "White House Christmas", "Bang for Your Buck", and "Real Estate Intervantion" are a few to mention. Her talent at engaging on the personal level is complimented by impressive professional credentials. Sabrina is a licensed real estate agent, and a LEED accredited designer. LEED is a Leadership in Energy and Environment Design, an internationally recognized green building certification system developed by the U.S. Green Building Counsil.


Here's a couple of my favorites staging that she's done.


Here's a bedroom that Sabrina Soto staged. The top picture is before the staging and the bottom picture is after staging. She gave the room a nuetral color of paint. Gave the room new furnitures and window treatment.





Here is a diningroom that the owners turned to a formal livingroom. Sabrina turned it back to a diningroom and changed the color of the room to a two toned neutral color. Made the fire place a focal point of the room. Gave the room new furnitures, window treatment, and accessories.
