Did You Know #2: Interior Design Trivia, You Didn't See Coming

Discover surprising interior design trivia and test your knowledge.

---

1. Did You Know: The world's first recorded interior designer was a woman?

In the 17th century, Catharine de Vivier was hired to design French aristocratic homes. Today, her legacy proves that interiors have always been about artistry and precision, a philosophy Caudelle carries into every install.

Caudelle Solution: We approach every project as an art form. Our white glove installers handle pieces with precision, ensuring your designs are presented exactly as envisioned, because every space deserves to feel curated and timeless.

2. Did You Know: The average sofa travels over 1,000 miles before it reaches it's destination?

From the factory floor to distribution centers, warehouses, and finally installation, most luxury furniture racks up serious mileage. Every mile adds risk, scratches, rips, or dents.

Caudelle Solution: Our team offers receiving, inspection, climate-controlled storage, and final delivery to protect pieces at every step. When your sofa arrives, it’s showroom fresh, no road wear, and no surprises.

3. Did You Know: Mirrors were once worth more than gold?

In Renaissance Europe, Venetian mirrors were so rare and prized that only royals could afford them.

Caudelle Solution: We treat every mirror, chandelier, and art piece like treasure. From secure crating to precision hanging, we ensure your statement pieces shine without risk of damage.

Caudelle Interior Installations, we believe your investment deserves nothing short of masterpiece handling.
