Victor Matthews.. Great artist. Beautiful Soul

Very rarely do we have the opportunity to meet truly great people, who are as gracious as they
are successful. I felt honored to have had the chance to meet Victor Matthews, such a s cool and influential artist, who's work in its own right is the perfect reflection of his talents and enlightened personality.. check him out. NYC local artist, and I would have to say Antarctica is one of my top 5.

cool dude.

Open Studio.. discovered on Apartment Therapy Kitchen Tours

this amazing kitchen I stumbled on during and AT review. Great architecture at work.
From a london design firm Open Studio, this is just a work of genius....




It expands for a larger working area, but then recedes to maximize the living space when not used. The perfect kitchen lol.



Oh yea and those little cubes profiled in the wall next to the oven?!.. drawers!!
and all of this is built into the space lost usually under the staircase which leads to the loft
above. ... heart!! <3

Nuevo Estilo November issue.. still full of color

Every month there is one publication I just can't wait to see, and its not even one I can get here i the states. Figures.

Nuevo Estilo, is this great small design magazine I stumbled upon on a holiday trip to spain, its sort of a mash up of ELLE Decor And Metropolitan Home. Anyone who likes to pair old with new, trendy with traditional, color and light. You'll love this magazine too. It's truly inspirational, and they always feature the coolest interiors and architectural works.
So you'll probably see me post a lot from them..

Here's to design..







Love the mix of metal and white with splashes of bright color... classic.




Patterns and textures with color..
