The Incredible Story of Designer from Portland, Garrison Hullinger32 photos

When talking about Garrison Hullinger, it's worth noting not just his stunning interiors, but the truly extraordinary life story of a man who became a designer thanks to a tragic turn of events. In 1999, Garrison was involved in a workplace accident that left him unable to walk for four years. During his recovery, he had to relearn how to read, write and walk. At one point during treatment, a doctor recommended he try doing a small bathroom renovation to help rebuild his body's motor skills. Amazingly, this simple task soon turned into a lifelong passion for interior design that continues to this day. Today, he is the director of his own design studio named after him, and many publications in the country write about his work. He is truly a remarkable individual worthy of admiration!
