How We Create Content
All the photos and content you will find on this site has been planned and edited by Blake Lockwood and his team to ensure the site meets the highest quality standards. We do tend to use freelance writers and editors to help put articles together but nothing is put online without a green light from Blake Lockwood, the chief editor. This is to ensure all information we publish is accurate and you can trust it to make interior design and purchase decisions.
Decor Snob’s mission is to inspire and empower our readers to create beautiful, functional, and welcoming homes. We are committed to being a reliable resource for timeless design advice and innovative decorating ideas.
