For over 15 years, Philadelphia magazine has presented a Design Home to the public. Each Design Home has been a unique example of the latest market trends. Proceeds from the ticket sales for the Design Home tours are given to a local charity. Diane Bishop Interiors led this team of the Builder, Architect and all of the sponsors to make this a successful event in 2010, 2011, 2013 and 2014.

Design Home 2010

NINTH Annual Design Home. We were intent on designing this home to be both elegant and warm. Since it was designed for a family of six, we knew the look would be very specific, and we made sure that we gave purpose and style to every space in the home. The overall design is classic, with a contemporary twist. Every room draws you in and invites you to take a closer look. This house will really felt like home for this family.
