With such clients under her belt as Goode Company, Eunice and Goodnight Charlie’s, Gin Braverman (gindesigngroup.com) has made a name for herself as Houston’s go-to hospitality designer. “I love the great attitude and adventurous spirit of Houston developers, restaurateurs and chefs,” she says. “They are down-to-earth, excited by new ideas and are generally just some of the loveliest humans to work with.” Here, she shares the pieces she’s got her eyes on.
