Interior Designer Amy Lau - Nazmiyal Antique Rugs

A Conversation with Interior Designer Amy Lau

Having worked with designers for over twenty years, I can really appreciate what makes Amy Lau so special and distinctive. I wanted to start our “Designer Spotlight” with Amy because of her wonderful sensitivity to color and its role within the design process.
