Era Ode
February 23, 2015
The 1970s is quite possibly my favorite decade - it was just so cool and sexy. I love the furniture, the fashion, the music, the dancing... all of it.

The countdown is on for the launch of our very own wallpaper line with Studio Four NYC! We are heading to New York this week for the reveal...here is a peek into some of the planning. Seeing something come to life that started with my paint brush is satisfying in a whole new way. Stay tuned for the full line and we will let you know as soon as it is available for purchase! A special thank you to Haskell Harris of Garden and Gun and Jennifer Boles of the Peak of Chic for the wallpaper love last week xo
Form and Volume
February 02, 2015
French designer Pierre Guariche was said to have been motivated primarily by form, quality, and volume in his furniture designs. In the 1950s he became the designer behind Belgian company Muerop where he was able to create clean, elegant pieces that were industrially produced and accessible. Although he is best remembered for his lighting, his leather G1 chairs are a favorite of mine, and I am reminded of his influence in design almost daily. We all stand on the shoulders of giants.

Morris Louis' Color Field
January 20, 2015
"I think that we realized that you didn't have to assert yourself as a personality in order to be personally expressive. We felt that we could deal solely with aesthetic issues, with the meaning of abstraction, without sacrificing individuality - or quality." - Kenneth Noland, referring to himself and Morris Louis. Morris Louis was an American painter most prominently known for his contribution to Color Field Painting. His depth and use of color are truly captivating and almost peaceful, but I will let the work speak for itself.
