David Wasley, Lead Designer & Merchandiser The art of merchandising is second nature for David. Even as a child he was told not to re-arrange furniture while visiting friends and relatives. But, soon enough, those same relative and friends came clamoring for his assistance and keen eye. “Grouping furniture has an element of puzzle solving; If you can figure out how to unconventionally group pieces that complement each other with color, scale and style - than you will have a shop that flows and feels unique.” After Graduating from college with degree in Education, David enjoyed success in the fields of education and hospitality management, but found he kept being called back to do creative work in some form or another. During his professional career, David has honed his design skills on a variety of projects: residential design consulting, retail merchandising, and renovation of a European-style, turn-of-the century hotel. Inspired by Austin’s famously eclectic design scene, David began specializing in architecturals and antiques. Over the years, his eye for design and style has transformed merchandising into an art form. Today, he has helped make Design It With Consignment the upscale consignment boutique that is changing Austin’s perceptions of “consignment shopping”. He applies his mastery of sourcing, grouping and display to create ever changing vignettes. “Having a deeper appreciation for all things recycled – be it a column capital or a couch – inspires the search for consignments suitable for “re-use and re-purposing”.
