Mad Men

Season 4 of Mad Men premiered yesterday in the US! Very excited to watch another dramatic season and I can’t wait to see all the beatutiful 1960’s costumes and decor.

Sixx Design

Friday, July 23rd, 2010

On my recent trip to NYC for the launch of Susanna Salk’s Room for Children I was lucky enough to meet Cortney and Robert Novogratz from Sixx Design. As parents of 7 children, yes 7, they are such an inspirational team and do an amazing job at converting ‘wrecks’ into fabulous, stylish homes. Their design aesthetic mixes old and new (which they do flawlessly), and combines interesting finds from overseas as well as an impressive collection of artwork from young artists.

If you haven’t heard of them (where have you been?!), have a look at some of my favourite images below, or jump on their website at www.sixxdesign.com

You can also catch this amazing duo on Bravo TV’s 9 by Design. The series follows Cortney and Robert’s life over a 6 month period, during which they worked on 6 huge design projects including the Bungalow Hotel, a 10,000 square foot glass house on Manhattan’s West Side Highway and the conversion of a gun shop located on the edge of Soho into a stunning home. Although it hasn’t been released in Australia yet, I have been able to watch the series and absolutely love it!

As if all that wasn’t enough, their new book Downtown Chic is also available and contains most of their projects up to now. I just received my copy and can’t wait to start flipping through!

Issue number 5 of Michelle AdamsLonny magazine is all about kicking back and enjoying the summer. Although we’re all rugged up in front of our fireplaces in Australia, we loved the issue!

AMERICAN TRIP (Part 3)

Thursday, June 10th, 2010

On my friend’s Julius & David recommendation we meet at Ilili’s. I would have to say that it’s the best Mediterranean food I’ve ever had!  Fabulous drinks too.

One of the highlights of my trip was the book launch of Susanna Salk’s new book Room for Children at Bergdorf Goodman’s.
I am thrilled to have one of my designs featured along with such talents as Charlotte Moss, Celerie Kemble, Amanda Nisbet, Alessandra Branca and so many more. room-for-children-cover
