Manhattan Mix

We invite you to envy with us this to-die-for abode of MAC Cosmetics’ kingpin, John Demsey. There’s no holding back; every palette’s got punch, but it calms in that classic reassuring way. I love how he’s got what a lot have (acrylic table, white figurine, mono photos, a statement light piece…) but makes the space his own with fearless wall colour and another quirky fair find for good measure. Place Madeline Weinrib Ikat curtains and rug in the mix and the boldness melts… it’s the the ying that the yang is craving.  elle-decor-oct-madeline-weinrib21

Even the assertive black and white rooms with the celeb photos everywhere, somehow want you to stay and sit awhile.

And who would see that dreamy starlight rug that would look right at home in any 80’s tween bedroom, and know to match it with that? Jealous.

We were super excited to get our new Real Living magazine July issue with our good friend Michelle Adams inside! She graces no less than 8 pages and her apartment looks fantastic! We know Michelle has been working so hard to get everything spic and span for this shoot and she has done a brilliant job. She really shows what can be done in a small space and on a budget. Her look is nothing less than stylish and Michelle’s natural flair for transforming interiors is obvious! Patrick Cline has taken these beautiful photos and together, he and Michelle make a great team! We are so proud of you Michelle! Come back and see us again very soon…… or we will just have to come and see you. Huge congratulations – you look so darn cute on that sofa too!

Oh, we forget to mention that as well as being pretty and clever, Michelle is the founder of her own organic fabric range, Rubie Green.

Did we say she has a great blog too……….

as well as being really, really nice

and funny?

We wish! If only we were in NYC this week end we would be sharpening our elbows and pushing our way into DOMINO’S sale of all their props used in their stylish shots over the last couple of years. What a time we would have!! Wouldn’t it be amazing to snap up a treasure from this sadly departed magazine. So, we are not in NY this week end so we can stop the fantasizing…….sigh!

Thank you Erin at Elements of Style for the heads up on this!

We were recently talking to our friends at SIXX DESIGN and were excited to hear all about their fabulous new book DOWNTOWN CHIC Designing your Dream Home: From Wreck to Ravishing. (released on May 5th and available through Amazon)
Cortney and Robert Novogratz are the authors of this beautiful book. It is full of amazing stories and advice and has an assortment of brilliant before and after photos! You will be amazed and inspired by what this young, hip couple can achieve and all while bringing up six(x)+1!!! children under 9! They have developed and designed many properties in Manhattan, all with understated and flawless taste and always with a touch of luxury. Their design philosophy sees them involved in all aspects of their project, no matter how big or small. Cortney and Robert, you really are the masters of turning “funky into fabulous”! (oh yes and a totally handsome couple too….)
