In the space between “his” dressing room and “her” dressing room a creative builder conceived of creating a functional transition point.

We turned up the volume with large scale original art that cried out for this space, along with a little extra eye candy in the small space’s other appointments.

The result is one that kept both halves of this couple happy - always our goal as half of a couple myself to the same great guy for 29 years.

Spied this perfect beauty in NYC recently for a gentleman's dressing room.

In the right color for our client, a pair of these babies will be ….TOO. DARN. GOOD.

One of the things I love about blending our digita

One of the things I love about blending our digital design presentation materials with old school movable design boards is that clients really lean into and love the way we can move things around on the boards during selection meetings as they make decisions….

As a visionary in design, I always “see” and like to present an A Board and a B Board for every space we design. It allows clients to see a beautiful and defined range of possibilities and choices. Never overwhelming - it’s a defined range of choice that makes the process exciting and invigorating.

And the way we DO our movable boards is that makes them the icing on the design cake is that each board has movable choices/options within it - with yet more choices that can blend between the boards.

It’s honestly like colorforms for adults! Clients love the process because it makes decision making such a breeze, or so they tell us.

Treating every client the way we’d like to be treated if WE were the client comes easy when you #lovewhatyoudo.

How do you feel about vintage furniture? We fell in love with this vintage center hall table we spied in a very dealer in Los Angeles when I was out there for the Design Influencers Conference, well before pre-covid..

In this small foyer, the select few items - from rug to furnishings to accessoires make a clear impact.

It’s all about the mix...

When we asked, do we dare?

We answered ourselves and said, sure why not.

A fav client agreed…. 🙂

Keeping plants alive is, well...a thing.

I’d originally envisioned very different plants in the 4 corners of this indoor pool.

To my great disappointment, the expert we used on the job told me my choice would be dead in a month.

Not good.

Peace lily to the rescue….

This is the beauty of fabric….I place where I want it…:)

We hoped our client would go modern in his wine room. He wanted to go Tuscan.

Because he trusted us, we took him on a journey to give him a happy medium.

The steel frame windows were a great note to which we layered modern lighting and art and a simple, clean color palette. We indulged his wishes with custom monogrammed camelbak dining chairs and a clean trestle table, which rest neatly against the plastered walls and arched wine racks inside the temperature controlled wine storage area.

Fit for tastings as well as small dinner parties - this is a wine room that gets a lot of use and was all about collaboration.

I really wanted to use another word in that quote…..but, can you make a graphic with the word “ass.”?

Sanitized or not - this quote is true. 😉

(PS...if you are gifted enough to communicate with spirit, please dont tell my mother I swore in my IG feed…)

Now that COVID is “lifting” in these parts -

Now that COVID is “lifting” in these parts - I’m coming clean: COVID has given me SBO: Soulful Burn Out. I confirmed my diagnosis when scrolling on my phone the other day and saw this pic of me with one of my besties, Robyn. When I saw it, the thought struck me, I haven’t seen, let alone hugged her…. in over a year…

I started to tear up.

But the happy part of this story, (Yes...there’s a happy part….hang with me a sec)....and the reason I’m posting this is - that as I tap this, I am an hour away from playing hookie from the office to trade in my usual quick lunch to head out to spend some soul-feeding time with a fav human being.

Don’t know what’s on the menu...but hugs definitely will be.. 🙂 (ooops...I just made myself cry again…)

Holy Smokes - the man we used to call the Mini-Hof

Holy Smokes - the man we used to call the Mini-Hoffman is now taller than I am, and a college graduate.

Brett, you amaze Dad and me and always have. A seeker of new experiences, unbridled tenacity, a deep well of creativity and intelligence - all wrapped up in an incredibly good-natured and kind human being. The seeds of these traits were present even when you were a kindergartener complaining about the riggers of “circle time.”
⠀
(Hey...circle time can be a pain in the rear ...you get leg cramps. Sometimes you need to wiggle.)
⠀
Brett, your journey is just beginning kiddo. Now you can break out of the circle and write your own script. Dad and I love you to bits and are cheering for you every step of the way. Xox

I love every phase and stage of designing a great space - right down curating the perfect accessories and style out.
⠀
In fact, accessories are a major design power tool.
⠀
We use them to place important shapes, textures and colors in specific locations - all to really make spaces vibrant and wonderful.
