Another Exciting Collaboration

Watch out ... for this one...Coming soon :-)  an Exciting Collaboration 

Better Homes and Gardens April 2014 iPad edition

Was so excited to receive my BHG April 2014 magazine edition in the mail and so sad to see only two of my images made it into this story! 

Then was informed from the stylist, Michael Walters, to check out the iPad edition and Bam! A little more to see! 

Check out the BHG iPad editions ...they are a little more visually exciting :-)

Guerilla Atelier

I thought I would  check out the Arts District in Downtown LA and found Guerilla Atelier, an amazing luxury fashion Atelier. 

Carl Louisville, the founder, explained that he was inspired to mimics the shops of Paris in the 19th century and create a modern boutique style in DTLA. 

Carl explained that for 15 years, he managed Prada in Beverly Hills, where he was surrounded with a world of luxury and decided to experiment with a pop-up of his inspirational ideas on the weekends. 

It was a huge success! 

So he made the decision to leave Prada and devote himself full-time to open Guerilla Atelier. 

Carl has really created an beautiful and inspirational environment of one of a kind specialty item…that likely will not be found anywhere else. 

If you have a chance  take a look its a wonderful experience.

Astier de Villatte et Maison & Objet

Wow! Astier de Villatte is just so incredible! 

I was really blown away by their presentation at Maison & Objet show. They constructed a full store inside the hall! But unlike others it was a real vision, charming, romantic, playful and beautiful like their brand. 

Maison Objet Mariska Meijers

 I was able to meet up with Amsterdam-based artist and designer Mariska Meijers and see her exciting and colorful  collections. 

Being a multi-talented artist , She had an exciting exhibit at Maison & Objet with so much sophistication style and color. It is no wonder her cubism pillow were displayed in the inspiration and beyond exhibit at Maison & Objet. 

Make sure you go Check out some of her beautiful creations at Mariska Meijers .  

Maison Baccarat

Thank you so much to the illustrious Interior Designer Cristina Hadzi !!!! 
She mentioned a Party at Maison Baccarat while I was in Paris and asked if I would like to attend in her place....Uh DUH!!! YES!
 I invited a Parisian Friend to come with so I wouldn't be too out of place.
 It was an evening of decadence and opulence, of Crystal and Champaign.

I really wanted to take my Champaign glass but thought that would be rather uncivil...;-)

my two Favorite images from the night!

Pottery Barn Cover Guy 2014

So Grateful to be working with such talented creative people.

Check out My Pottery Barn Work... :-)

(Main, Bed and Bath and Teen)

Fabric inspiration Pillows

Well aren't I crafty! 
You might remember that this is the African Fabric I brought back from Paris and had a shirt made .... well It was a large piece of Fabric and I was so inspired by the border....the printing, dying and design I wanted to use it in someway ...So I made pillows

Now don't look too close... I am no expert seamstress but I have been known to make a couple of garments back in the day
I couldn't be happier and they are a so comfortable and beautiful

I guess if I wear my shirt to bed I might need sea sick pills!

The Parish Trust

Beautiful  Beautiful Beautiful 

The Parish Trust diligently collect and curate antiques from the dead and dying industries. Perusing basements, boxes and personal stashes for the odd, obsolete and unusual. Hand picking artists from coast to coast to collaborate and showcasing it all in their gussied up little bunker.

Proprietors: Rod Hipskind & Kelly Ishikawa.... well DUH! No wonder its such a BEautiful Place

Rod is a stylist who I've had the pleasure of working with! 

He definitely understand  how to hook my eye as a photographer:-) 

Really great finds and in such a beautiful interiour in San Francisco 

and they have Warby Parker!

Spring is coming ¿Right? Pottery Barn Bed and Bath

I was so excited to have the opportunity to work with the Bed and Bath concept for Pottery Barn! 
Its inspiring  to explore a single concept and focus in on beautiful textiles, textures and colors

Check out the catalogue on line or at the  Pottery Barn store

The NoMad NYC

Ok I am In Love with is place!
 The NoMad Hotel in New York City!
It is so exquisite and Bravo to French Interior designer, Jacques Garcia. 

 My friend Raphaël ,in Paris, saw on Facebook that I was visiting Kitsuné and ask me to say hello to a friend/colleague who was there for work. Well, She was in a meeting but Kitsuné staff were kind enough to explain the relationship and give me a tour of the hotel. So, On this visit I had to book a room to check it out. I was amazed! The service and hospitality is outstanding. Everything about this hotel and brand is spectacular. This is a real gem

I was so inspired by the colors, the view the light. 

 Everything in the room, restaurant and the library bar is so intentional simple comfortable and beautiful.

I highly recommend you check it out

 for a stay or to dine at the restaurant (Chef Daniel's  food is extremely delicious and innovative) or even stop for a coffee at the Library Bar

You will not be disappointed!

(I am trying to convince them to make room 908 my permanent residence;-))

Recently, due to some circumstances with my apartment, I was fortunate enough to be able to stay at the Crosby Street Hotel. I was so great to have yet another perspective of NYC and I really was inspired by the design and decor of the rooms, So colorful and fun .

Service was amazing and the restaurant was so delicious. I really enjoyed the hotel "guest only" lounge,  met some interesting people.
