Just a quick note to wish everyone a spook-tacular day! To all those in New Hampshire - stay warm! This will certainly be one Halloween we never forget

Another detail that can add a lot of character to a room or home are the doors. It would be easy to play it safe in this regard, but look how fun it can be to step outside the box!

This is a fun post I started a while back… Stairs are one of those structural details that doesn’t have to be boring. Just see for yourself!

I’m back! What an amazing adventure…

As much as I love to travel, I have to say that I love coming home just as much. Home, after all, allows the obvious perks of sleeping in your own bed and having a full wardrobe close at hand.

But aside from these practical benefits, home is where memories are created, where dreams are born, where life is celebrated, and love can grow. Home is an extension or expression of oneself.

Have you experienced remarkable change in recent years? If so, you may want to consider changing your environment to reflect the new you. Call or write today to find out more.

I am all about continuing education - not just professionally, but personally as well. Life is too short and I want to make every moment count. Like many others around the world, I have been saddened as well as inspired by the recent passing of Steve Jobs. The following is a brief passage from his notorious Stanford University commencement speech:

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

So! It’s time for me to put my money where my mouth is :) Hold tight for the next week as I will be traveling to San Diego to experience another level of self discovery. Until then, adios!

When it comes to Art Deco, the word GLAMOUR says it all. A middle ground for modernism, Art Deco was geometric, streamlined, super sleek and sexy. This style occurred during the financial boom of the 20s-30s, but was short lived because of WWII. Examples of Art Deco architecture include the Chrysler Building, Radio City Music Hall, Rockefeller Center, and hotels in NYC as well as Miami.

Characteristics of Art Deco include: rounded silouettes, glossy exotic woods, sunbursts, chevrons, zigzags, shiny metals, mirrored furniture, bling, bling, and more bling. Think Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. Think flapper girls. Think King Kong. Think the Emerald City in the Wizard of Oz.
