Hernando Water TowerThings are SO VERY CRAZY RIGHT NOW! I’m not complaining. Being busy at work is a good thing. But I have had very little time to blog and I enjoy writing.
Just turned in the design submittal for Hernando Hampton Inn. I really love it. And the client seems to be very pleased.  As soon as I can, I will reveal a few points of the design. I can say this.  It is based on the wonderful Hernando Water Tower that was built in 1925.  The City of Hernando, MS is quite charming and is very active.  It was our pleasure to discover it and study it.

We submitted our design for the Brookhaven Holiday Inn Express just before the holidays.  It is a long process to get it approved and built.  But it is on its way.  Our contractor has been doing as much as he could while waiting for our final approval from IHG – Intercontinental Hotels Group.   

Our concept is very loosely based on the style of many old houses in the beautiful historic areas of Brookhaven.  Of course, I do mean “very loosely”.  IHG always wants the Express to have a contemporary look.  And we are providing that.  But I think it is important to do something that ties the hotel to its locale.  Brookhaven is a beautiful town.  So I wanted to add architectural details that said “early 20th Century”.  But these same details have a very contemporary side, of course. 

We are adding a fireplace in the front lobby.  It is surrounded by marble and glass.  —and very elegant.  But it has a real coziness to it at the same time.  Our feature fireplace is more of a rectilinear shape and sits in a dividing wall between the front desk and the dining and lounge areas.  Originally, I wanted to have it completely floating in glass, but we had to add the center wall to hold the flat screen TV on the opposite side. We are placing two “MADMEN” style lounge chairs in front of the fireplace.  I’ll show you our color scheme soon.  After showing the client 4 schemes, she loved the final.  You will too, I hope.

I”ll give you a few more details soon.  We used some really nice touches taken from old houses.  My favorite will be in my next blog post.  Our columns on each side of the fireplace are 2 of 4 that make a square in the lobby.  They will be covered in a small mosaic tile.  This is going to be SOO pretty!

Yes, SNAKES!  The latest and hottest look for your interiors is a snake-skin print.  Whether it is vinyl, wool, or the real think(ugh), the look of a snake is it.  And guess what.  I like it…..a lot…..  It can be so beautiful and so elegant.

Here is a blue snake pattern.  I see it as pillows or on an ottoman.  Very pretty.

And crocodile skin….also Yiks!

But so very elegant and rough at the same time.  We are using this one in a hotel lobby in Austin, Texas.  It will be perfect.  It has just a subtle reference to an upscale cowboy boot.  and look at these colors and texture.  Can’t beat it.

You can add just a throw pillow and it will give you an updated look.  Very nice.

Love this look!

Fabulous Look!
Fabulous Look.

I love this new product.  There are several patterns, beautiful to funky fun.

This selection has a quiet elegance that sooths the soul.  I would use it in a bedroom as an accent wall behind the bed.

This past weekend I drove to Ocean Springs, MS,  for the annual regional A.S.I.D. conference for Arkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana.  Saturday night was the Awards Gala.  We won!  –The Silver Award for the HOSPITALITY catagory.  This includes hotels, restaurants, casinos and, I think, clubs.  Our Hampton Inn & Suites in Wiggins, MS won the Silver.  It was the only hotel mentioned.  I am so so very proud of this!  Thank you, Jackies International, for having faith in me and my staff!

Lots of circles, comfort and practicality, with soft beauty.
