imagine that there was a beautiful shop that was more like a gallery, and every three months would take on an entirely new theme, no detail would be left untouched, a 10-color color palette would be chosen, and everything inside would be curated to match. even the color of the front door would change. well,…
earlier this fall i was lucky enough to meet talented uk-based illustrator trina dalziel over a fresh croissant and chocolat chaud at a local parisian cafe. it was so fun talking design with her and seeing some of her new work. as soon as she sent over her sneak peek, i thought to myself, i…
kathryn hunter of blackbird letterpress calls baton rouge, louisana home. she never thought she’d stay, but loves the town’s mix of politics, colorful history, academia, the lush slow life and art splashed in. her partner david cano (a metal worker) bought the house 7 years ago and did much of the renovations himself. the result…
ever since i first saw xenia taler‘s home i’ve been craving a mobile of my own. i love how they add a bit of fun and charm to her place, while still feeling sophisticated and appropriate for the space. and as an avid booklover, i’m also thoroughly intrigued by having a dining area completely surrounded…
chances are you probably remember christie chase‘s first sneak peek on d*s. i emailed her a few months ago after a friend of mine had written to tell me she saw the sneak peek inspired feature in the houston chronicle, at which time christie wrote back to me telling me about a loft space she…
today’s first sneak peeks give us an inside look at the triple treat behind the barcelona-based multi-talented design and pattern boutique, alan the gallant. alex bedoya makes up the “al” in ALan and heads up the business development side of things. originally from ecuador, alex has lived a bit of a nomadic life with time…
you may remember this post with showing off the beautiful decoupage ceiling in home of mr. peacock (aka robert hold- check out his blog here!), but today we have a full sneak peek into his place with lots more great little details. typically the owners behind our peeks are on a quest for natural/day light,…
we always love a good tip from our friends telling us about great homes, and we have joanna goddard to thank for giving us the heads up about this carroll gardens 1100sf brownstone apartment of her friend, jennifer ward. jennifer is imagination agent and creative director of minor details, a children’s interior consulting firm focusing…
today’s special tuesday sneak peek is into the home of bill hilgendorf and maria cristina rueda (and their cats, as you will see!) of the design + build furniture company uhuru design. their carroll gardens home is a wonderful collaboration showcasing many projects the two have worked on together. thanks to bill and maria for…
our first sneak peek of the day features the 800-square-foot tribeca loft of andrew and heather wagner. the couple – andrew is the editor in chief of american craft magazine, and heather, a soon to be published author with her book, friend or faux, to be released by quirk books in spring 2009 – was…
today’s sneak peeks are almost a story in opposites. the first, elena’s home, is a beautiful minimalist loft and today’s second sneak peek, matt from etsy and benedikta from burdastyle, is lovely, more eclectic interior within a traditional brooklyn brownstone. i love the contrast between the two and thought it would be fun to see…
there is so much incredible content that was intended for the house & garden website that won’t be making it on the site. rather than continue to cry about it, i figured i should share some of it here. one of my co-workers sent over these shots of actress, author and hostess extraordinare amy sedaris‘…
