Whenever I’m asked what my favorite color is, I immediately ask a question back: “Is beige a color?” But while I’m forever loyal to my neutral hues, I do love to inject pattern into the mix! My favorite print in my wardrobe is polka dots—you’ve seen me wearing them in posts like how to wear […]
Contrary to popular belief, we do have winter here in LA! Oh sure, it doesn’t snow or storm, but the nighttime temperatures can drop to freezing. What’s more, our winters are incredibly dry. Technically we’re a in desert, after all! The result is that all the same cold weather complaints I had when I lived in […]
Last week, we emptied Ivan’s sad, makeshift home office to make way for a fabulous new built-in situation! I was away on a photo shoot all day while the install was taking place, and it was such a thrill to come home to the completed result. It was exactly as I’d originally envisioned and then […]
I generally do a pretty good job of keeping clutter at bay in our house. With only 900 square feet, I have to or things can easily get out of hand! Yet try as I might, I find it impossible to keep my ceramics addiction at bay. I’ve always had a thing for pots, vases, […]
As much as interior design is about aesthetics, it’s also about laying the groundwork for how we want to feel as we move through our lives. That’s why I love decorating a new space so much. It’s an opportunity to set the scene for making every day just a little better! For example, I recently […]
For years I’ve been crushing on Australian design. It seems as though every time I see a residential or commercial project that both pushes the envelope but also feels totally approachable and inviting, it’s located Down Under! It’s hard to put my finger on exactly why that country’s interiors firms have such visionary sensibilities, but […]
As far as I’m concerned, the most dangerous spot in LA isn’t a back alley or a freeway median, it’s The Apartment by The Line. It’s impossible to walk into their impeccably curated space, full of decor, fashion, and apothecary finds, without wanting one of everything—and without walking out with at least one of something. The edit […]
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 […]
I’ve always loved to look behind the curtain at the studios and offices of creatives, and that curiosity has only grown since renovating and designing my own workspace at Light Lab! Not only do these peeks provide plenty of eye candy, but they can also teach us a lot about improving the functional design of our homes. […]
I’m still riding the inspiration high from my trip to Las Vegas Market earlier this week. Because yesterday’s post on Jaipur Living’s minimalist global decor only scratched the surface, I wanted to share one more fabulous find that I can’t stop thinking about! Viewing the selection of tablewares brands represented at the market was like being […]
