MAKES ME CRAZY!!!!

I am the first to tell you that 1stdibs is way over-rated. But...every now and then something like this will come up and make me shake!!! This precious piece...a massive metal dinning table by Larry Totah is being offered by FAT CHANCE for a mere $24,000.
I wish someone would make it as a coffee table!!!
I love it!!!!

WISHLIST

This little baby is on my wish list at the moment. The FELT CHAIR was designed in 1989 by MARC NEWSON for Cappellini. The chair is made of reinforced fiberglass and has one solid polished aluminum leg. Marc Newson is most famous for creating the LOCKHEED CHAIR featured in Madonna's Rain video. A chair like this is bound to make the room!

It's HOT!!!!

THE NEW CLASSICS



It takes true talent to develop a look and make that look "A" classic.
Here are four designers that I respect for their ability to design and their gift of putting things together in a visually exciting way without being trendy or "in the moment".
I have provided you a link to their websites. Investigate.








BRUTAL!!!!




Lately I've been crazy for this mix. The contrast of simple square lines juxtaposed with contemporary art and a touch of whimsy. Here is one example of precisely that twist.

BIG TIME!!!!


Look at the pieces we made for our friend/client Jeff Andrews. Mentioned in the new TRAD home!!!

DESIGN!





The challenge.... turning a classic 50s apartment into a comfortable and practical living space that allows for entertaining and modern living. A mix of contemporary furniture, mid century finds and modern art make this space feel homey. Restored hard wood floors, neutral colored walls, and furniture that can be easily moved about make this space perfectly practical!

GREY



FRANCISCO COSTA

FRANCISCO COSTA is best known for his work in fashion. His Manhattan loft is one of my favorite spaces and a big inspiration for how to use traditional in a very contemporary way.

HECTOR SANTIZO!



The work of HECTOR SANTIZO can appear cryptic to the ordinary eye. It's not until you stand before them, and truly study them that they become romantic.
Your imagination begins to unfold and you are taken away to a fantasy land of sorts, a hypnotic resort.

THESE IMAGES AND MORE....
ARE NOW AVAILABLE THROUGH FUNNEL.

GO GET YOU SOME!!!





I'm always a fan of quality for a fair price.
And love when a designer takes on the challenge of producing a line for the masses and does it well.
Thomas O'Brien does exactly that with his spring line of bedding for TARGET. In a recent interview with House Beautiful, Thomas suggested buying several sets/slightly different but compatible and mixing them.

I love these.
I've suggested them to clients who are looking for everyday sheets that are stylish, affordable and most of all comfortable.
