Klismos dining chairs...

I am totally obsessed with the Klismos chairs, it seems I am not alone.  The chairs design dates back to the ancient Greeks so I see some staying power.  There are so many styles and types currently available it can be hard to find just the right piece.

 

These are beautiful and the legs are so elegant.

 

Clean and contemporary and I love the boxy feel of the back.

 

Simple and modern with upholstered seats and nail head detailing

.

I love the open rope style seat on these.

 

Contemporary legs and an open back.

These are the beauties that I am waiting on for my own kitchen with a little bit of it all and the contrast in color they are perfect for me!

Fresh air..

 

I think it is about time we opened up the doors and windows to let the fresh air in.  I am so in need of warmer days, we have had some beautiful teases here in California but I need a little more!  

Things here have been so busy and so amazing I cannot wait to share all of the new pieces we have online and some great upcoming giveaways here on the blog!  It is going to be a great couple of weeks as we ease into Spring, I do hope you will join us for everything!

flash back...

 

I spent the better part of the day on Tuesday looking for inspiration to get my point across.   Often times it is the picture that inspires me when I design but sometimes I search for the perfect photo to convey what I am trying to do.  This week it was difficult!!  I did however find A LOT of inspiration in an archived issue of Lonny Magazine from a while back.. These are just a few of my favorites- there  are definitely more in this issue.  I wish each and every magazine came with so much wonderful inspiration to it!

Grey bookcases..

 

I have been studying up on grey storage pieces lately for the kitchen and family room.  I came across this piece which I don't think I have shared.  Love this.  I am not sure what it is that makes it seem so right, the monochromatic feel of the books that are slightly askew?

entertaining ideas

 

Last weekend's dinner got me thinking... there are a lot of great entertaining ideas out there that I think we should be sharing.  What do you think?  Do you have some tips that make your dinners and brunches with family and friends just that little bit more special or just down right perfect?  

Do you want to share them with us?

someone pointed out that those are the bodega glasses in persimmon on the table- some of my favorites!

 

 

Lucite love...

 

I have completely fallen for Lucite.  I love the odd piece or two mixed in with traditional or transitional spaces.  It is just that little bit of fun that some spaces need.  I recently bought myself the lucite cube that we started selling and I love it, even if it is a bit different than my norm.  Do you have the lucite bug?

Light in the Dining room

 

The natural light in this space is pretty amazing.  Those are the chairs that I keep seeing around too just in a lighter finish... might have to find me a few of those!

Wishing you a wonderful Sunday!

We can all use a little modern once in a while and in my opinion this one is very fine!  I love the clean lines and the cocktail table is fantastic!
