Hope all is well with anyone who takes the time to read my blog. It has been a while and I apologize once again for that.
So... I am in the middle of a large redesign and it got me to thinking of all of the influences that guide my likes and dislikes. Obviously my time working for Meg Braff has been a huge influence on me, some of my designs styles I had developed way before ever hearing her name - which is what drew me to her. I think the depth of exposure has been the largest benefit, she is amazing. Along the way I have developed my style, which is a compilation of Meg, Miles Redd, Jamie Drake, Brian McCarthy and countless others. I see myself in so many designs that I cannot tell if I thought of it or saw it and stored it in my head. They are of course the masters. I know you all know what I mean! LOL!!!
RED,RED,RED
Here are some of the design elements that are tried and true and will be relevant today, tomorrow, and for many tomorrows to come.
Worlds Away - Helen Gred Console
Meg Braff Designs - Roxy - Red on White
Used this in my powder room in apple green
- everyone comes out smiling - they love it!
Meg Braff Designs - Brighton Your Pavilion - Sage on Persimmon
Hwang Bishop - KOI Lamp -
I always push these lamps because for the $ they are so worth it!!!
Hwang Bishop - Empress
I had to include this one as well, just beautiful.
Brunschwig & Fils - Bamboo Trellis - Red (Once saw a complete set of draperies in this fabric and it was a show stopper)
Quadrille - Les Indiennes Multi Colors - Red/Blue/Olive/Green
This fabric has been haunting me for years, you cannot find it in stock and can only be ordered in 5yds and more :-/
Here's a little Redd on red! Fabulous!!!
Mary McDonald shining bright!!!
