Remember the bedroom makeover for Kim of eat.sleep.wear that I’ve been going on about these past few weeks? Well, we shot it yesterday and it is BEE-YOO-TI-FULL, if I do say so myself! I can hardly wait to share it here with you guys! In the meantime, I may as well keep the resource reports […]
It feels so darn good to be wrapping up the design projects I’ve had on my plate the last little while. (Did you see the bachelor pad living room makeover I shared last week?) The next one on the docket is Kim’s neutral modern bedroom, which we’re scheduled to shoot next week. It’s just a […]
There is nothing like having your first place all to yourself! So when my BFF Caroline’s little brother Robert moved into a charming LA bungalow after years of living with roommates, we jumped at the chance to design and implement the living room of his dreams to commemorate his big step up! This project has been […]
Here in LA, as in many places in the country, the recent rise of the artisan ice cream shop has given us scoop savants a considerable number of tasty options for satisfying our frozen dairy cravings.

Collections are a funny thing. They so rarely set out with the intention of being a collection as such; rather, things accumulate slowly over time until one day you take a look around and realized you’ve amassed a serious hoard! Or at least that’s how it happened for me and for my friend Martha Mulholland, who […]
I don’t remember what I was doing when I first discovered Schoolhouse Electric, but I do remember how I felt! It was as though at last someone had heard my cries for unique and modern decor options, and had answered them with a thoughtfully designed lineup of brass sconces, clever desktop accessories, and utilitarian kitchenwares. The brand quickly […]
I’ve been thinking about moms a lot lately. I guess I’m at that age. I’m watching many of my peers enter the mothering phase of their lives; I’ve been watching my own mother explore a new phase of discovery and identity in her life; and I’ve been watching my path creep every more closely towards the entrance of […]
Los Angeles has no shortage of amazing hotels, but it never hurts to add one more name to the list of accommodations available in a city this large and diverse.
