I had no clue about this until I was reading this months Elle Decor and saw the full page ad and was thrilled! This is going to be good tv! I'm very curious to see how they balance the clients and thier one-on-one relationship with the cameras rolling. Anytime you have clients with money thats good tv. I hear that they have pushed the air date up till late May. So we will have to wait and see, but what a great group of designers. Have any of you heard about this?

On another note I have been absent for some time. This year has been super busy and alot of great things have happened in the last couple months both personally and professionaly. So thats my recap and I'm back on the blogging roll.

A Pair of Spades

Its no secret that I consider Kate & Andy Spade to be complete geniuses at everything they do. So it's no surprise that their home is the absolute epitome of eclectic, livable, elegance at its best. Their approach to design in general is inspiring to say the least....I hope these images bring you inspirational warmth, on what for me, is a snowy, snowy day.

~Great clip from one of my favorite blogs The Sartorialist....So nice to see what goes on behind the camera.

I'm back from my long blogging hiatus. I had an amazing holiday with family and friends and couldn't be more excited for the new year. I have literally hit the ground running again! So many projects in the works I couldn't be happier. I'm not one for resolutions but I do like to reflect on the past year and think about what I want more of in the coming year. I really hope to amp up the blogging a bit and really continue to take you guys along for the ride as a do what I love. I know, I know everyone says that the beginning of the year, but I really do mean it. I have to say thanks to everyone who has read since July and has so nicely commented. It means the world. You really meet some amazing people throughout this thing we call blogging and I really love being able to connect with so many people across the world. I wish each one of you an amazing 2011 - bright futures all around!

So Santa if you read my blog you know what to do...Have a great weekend!

I hope everyone is having a great week! Only a few more days till Christmas, which is unbelievable to me. Today I wanted to share some images of a home I completed last year. It was a beautiful home located at The Greenbrier. The house was plain vanilla, nothing was in it and we transformed it in 4 weeks...I'm still amazed by that. The tree is my favorite of all the ones I have done and that gold, hand carved, dear head is amazing. I hope these shots add a little holiday cheer to your day...

Well, I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and is getting geared up for Christmas. Things have been extremely busy for me, which is the reason for the lack of blog posts. I thought I would share with you some pictures of my latest project that just wrapped up. I had the most fun working with these clients who just relocated to this new home. This house was plain vanilla, nothing was in the space at all....so we got to start from scratch which is the best. My goal was to have a eclectic elegant space that had a classic urban feel. For their bedroom they wanted over the top Asian, so I think it was accomplished very well with out it being to in your face. I hope you enjoy these shots and are having a great week!
