DWELL ON DESIGN 2012

I had the pleasure of attending the annual Dwell on Design trade show in Los Angeles this past weekend with my handsome Landscape Architect.  Place us in a room with many impressive designers, innovative design technology and new products to drool over and we become entirely way too giddy!  I wish I had the time […]

DWELL ON DESIGN

One of the many ridiculously incredible projects created by the designers of the Office of James Burnett (where my man works).  Are you impressed? I constantly am by the talent in that office. I will be attending Dwell on Design this weekend where Jim Burnett, the founder and owner of The Office of James Burnett, […]

A STYLING TIP

Two things I really love about these photos: The overall styling & the perfect touch of black and white.  Styling can be very challenging but there is just something I adore about the trial-and-error process of styling photo shoots. You can ask my boyfriend – I use our apartment as a practice tool for styling. […]

SNEAK PEEK

I, along with my colleague Lauren Pryor, designed (using all things West Elm) and completed an install of an apartment model in Huntington Beach, CA last week. Just wanted to share a few detail shots I took – there will be more to come!  What do you think so far?

GENEVIEVE / CAPEL COLLABORATION

I recently stumbled upon these flat weave rugs designed by HGTV’s Genevieve Gorder in collaboration with Capel Rugs. They could work in both a contemporary or traditional space – I adore all of them! Well done Genevieve! View the collection here.

CHARMING HOME

This home has so much character – it’s beautiful to say the least. Currently in the running for House and Leisure’s 2012 Home of the Year, this Victorian home definitely has my vote! I cannot even pick out a favorite room…. such a work of art. photos via House and Leisure.

A LOVELY RETREAT

I found myself gazing at this photo for about ten minutes and then after realizing I was about to drool, I decided to share it with you all. Something about the brick walls and weathered wood flooring with the steel bathtub is really working – The textures and natural colors are insane. One day people, […]
