We\u2019d like to introduce you to Abigail Carr Botero, MDI\u2019s Design Assistant,\u00a0 Design Librarian, and Office Assistant. Abigail was born in Locust, North Carolina, a small town east of Charlotte. When Abigail says \u201csmall town\u201d she means it. There were \u201ca whopping 4 stop lights in the whole city,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Like most young designers, Abigail was constantly rearranging and painting her room growing up. She says that anytime her family was driving through neighborhoods she\u2019d comment on what she\u2019d change about all the houses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Abigail <\/a>went to Anderson University<\/a> in South Carolina and graduated with a BA in Interior Design. Her husband is from Mount Pleasant and came back for grad school at MUSC to become a Physical Therapist, and she happily relocated to Charleston.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here\u2019s what she said we asked her what she loved about the industry. \u201cI love the creativity! Not only that, I love that interior designers equally combine functionality and aesthetics. I\u2019ve had people ask which is more important \u2013 function or looks and I think it is our job to combine the two so that you have a beautiful, functional space.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n One of her favorite things about working at MDI are when we sit down to lunch together with all of the dogs running around. She describes her style as \u201ccozy and inviting.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019re glad you and Benji are part of the team, Abigail!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We\u2019d like to introduce you to Abigail Carr Botero, MDI\u2019s […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":10263,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[102,674],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/box2483.temp.domains\/~urbanar5\/mdi-maradesignco-com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8454"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/box2483.temp.domains\/~urbanar5\/mdi-maradesignco-com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/box2483.temp.domains\/~urbanar5\/mdi-maradesignco-com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/box2483.temp.domains\/~urbanar5\/mdi-maradesignco-com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/box2483.temp.domains\/~urbanar5\/mdi-maradesignco-com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8454"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/box2483.temp.domains\/~urbanar5\/mdi-maradesignco-com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8454\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/box2483.temp.domains\/~urbanar5\/mdi-maradesignco-com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10263"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/box2483.temp.domains\/~urbanar5\/mdi-maradesignco-com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8454"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/box2483.temp.domains\/~urbanar5\/mdi-maradesignco-com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8454"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/box2483.temp.domains\/~urbanar5\/mdi-maradesignco-com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8454"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
