Pacific Heights Designer Home

Oh boy people, get ready.... this project has just blown me away! The Pacific Heights Designer Home, located in San Francisco, was originally built in the early 1900s, and is a spacious 7700 sq. feet! Fifteen local, and extremely talented, designers have transformed this late Victorian home into an impressive showcase of contemporary design. There's quite a few images here, so I may just select some to elaborate on in another post...

Victoria Lyon Interiors

Since moving back to CT last year, I have been on the lookout for inspiring architects, designers, and artists local to our beautiful Nutmeg State ;0) Victoria Lyon is an interior designer located in Greenwich, CT. Here are some images from the Philip Johnson House Tour that Victoria designed. The purposeful and restrained use of color is so serene, and I love the minimal console table paired with that chunky (I'm guessing) chain. So cool!

JongeriusLab

Hella Jongerius started her professional career with Droog Designs, an influential Dutch design collaborative, after graduating from the Eindhoven Design Academy in the Netherlands. She is now realizing her own designs, as well as developing new designs for clients such as Maharam, Vitra, and Ikea, through her own company, JongeriusLab. Her dreamlike sketches are an inspiration in themselves, never mind her unique and beautiful final products - take a look...

              

         

                        

~ Textile Designs, for Maharam ~

I have seen these fabrics in person, and they are amazing! They have a quilted look, and a really beautiful "handmade" quality.

~ Bovist Cushion, for Vitra ~

I used this cushion in a kids room for a client up in Rockport, MA. I love the side pleats, and the scooped top. The tag is completely crotched.. another example of the "handmade" quality of Hella's work.

~ Wall Hangings, for IKEA ~

I could totally see these hanging in a library, or living room. I am particularly fond of the deer hanging.. I love how the neckline and right antler extend past the boarder of the piece. This one reminds me of a native american blanket or hanging. And the sketches are so whimsical..
