Art. Design. Fashion.
A few months ago, one of my favorite design chat buddies and his wife invited me over to their new place because he was selling a slightly damaged version of the Slim Aarons photo above... I wrote about it HERE.

Love it all. (In case you are new here, my grandmother is fabulous, her houses were decorated in the 70's and have looked that way since... but I think they should and could be in any magazine … [Read more...]
My husband referred me to these photos of the Swiss home of Giorgio Armani... I decided to post it, because while the furnishing are not particularly what I would do, the architecture and structure of this house amazed me...
