In the heart of the Inland Empire, homeowners dreaming of a beautiful, stress-free remodel often find themselves overwhelmed by the daunting process ahead. The desire to transform their living spaces clashes with the fear of making costly mistakes—mistakes that could lead to budget overruns and added stress, leaving their vision in shambles. It’s an issue that countless homeowners face as they contemplate a remodel in 2025, and it’s one that interior designer Annie Gilman knows all too well.

Having lived in spaces that felt draining and dysfunctional, Annie intimately understands the emotional toll that a poorly executed remodel can take on a family’s peace of mind. With each bad experience, a passion grew in her heart—a passion to help people love where they live. She believes that transformed spaces truly transform lives, injecting confidence and peace into the homes that so many hold dear.

In 2024, Annie launched Plein Air Interior Design, taking her first steps into entrepreneurship with the goal of guiding homeowners through the remodel process. With a Master’s in Interior Architecture and over five years of specific kitchen and bath design experience, she is equipped to show clients the light at the end of the tunnel. Working in a design-build company, she witnessed firsthand the pitfalls that often trap homeowners at the start of their remodels. Through her guidance, she discovered that a solid plan—developed before breaking ground—was instrumental in making the remodeling experience smooth and enjoyable.

Now, with an upcoming workshop at Win Bath and Kitchen on February 22nd, 2025 Annie is excited to share valuable insights that can save homeowners from common remodeling mistakes. Over the course of the 45-minute presentation, she will unveil strategies to navigate the remodeling landscape effectively. Participants will have the opportunity to engage in a Q&A session with design experts, architects, and lenders who can provide personalized guidance tailored to their unique needs. Plus, each attendee will leave equipped with a comprehensive booklet filled with detailed checklists and a preferred vendor list, ensuring they have all the tools to proceed confidently.

The success stories of those who have embraced her expertise echo through the community. By working with Annie, many local homeowners have dramatically reduced their stress levels, enjoying smooth renovations devoid of guessing and haphazard decisions. Instead, they face their remodels with confidence, knowing they have a solid plan in place.
