Objects of Desire
















 All furniture by Shine by Sho http//www.shinebysho.com
Just a few of my favorite things......

I Like His Style




Oh how I love that Thom Filicia, he has such a great sense of STYLE and eye for putting the oddest things together and making it look FAB. I was at the Americans Mart today for The Atlanta International Gift & Home Furnishings Market 2010. The market was abuzz with new showrooms,seminars and buyers looking for the hottest trends for 2010, I must say I was surprised. I saw more people buying which means (I hope) that the recession might be turning around for business owners. But back to why I love Thom, his seminar was such a breath of fresh air to hear today. He spoke about how I view each project when it comes to how I design my clients homes and businesses. Know what will inspire you to take each room and make it belong to the homeowner, take something anything that may mean a lot to the client and bring life to their homes with it. He gave ideas on how to view different steps of the project to give you the right formula and make a beautiful space. Geographical Location,Moods,Architecture and Historical References, these are just a few of the things that gave him inspiration  on every project thus far he has done. I really enjoyed meeting  him and getting my book signed by one of the FAB FIVE!

The k2 Modern House Rental





This gem of a home was refurbished with love and commitment to modernism while staying true to the original design of the home. It is now on the market for rent and the owners are looking for renters that will love it just as much as they do. If you're  in the market for  a very cool and modern space to call home, check out their website for further information. I've enjoyed many great pool parties and gatherings with this great family. Enjoy!
