Ritz Carlton Grand Cayman~ sneak peek

Here's a sneak peek at the penthouse I've been working on for almost a year... I'll be finishing it up in December!

a kid in a candy shop

I was in heaven at the Designers Guild flagship showroom & store yesterday...

literally drooling at the new Darly collection,

and planning to use wallpaper #1 in my office. That is when I get my hands on an office;)

* this is a big highlight of my trip so far since the US only has limited collections through O & L.

TATE modern

I went to the TATE modern yesterday for some afternoon inspiration. It brought me back to Modern Art History 350 with Mark Magleby...I loved that class.

the snail by henri matisse Matisse has always been one of my favorites. Read more about this piece here.

the pool of london by andre derain- this is a new found favorite of mine.

from his series the americans by robert frank - really interesting exhibit.

I think I'll go back next week to see the new Turner exhibition.

QUADRILLE in House Beautiful

One of the things that I miss most about home is the pile of design magazines that used to sit on my bedside table & my domino archives in the closet. Luckily, I can still get a partial fix by browsing some of them online until my transient life comes to an end in a few weeks (I am really looking forward to unpacking my bags).



I loved seeing QUADRILLE featured on the cover of House Beautiful for October. They are one of my favorite lines for fabric & wallpaper- unique colors, exotic patterns, and feminine flair...yum.
