I do love this room. I love the furniture, the custom hand-made tile around the fireplace, the Art Deco chairs, many details. I just have no time now, but will talk about it more soon. I love the white washed horizontal wood paneling, my custom designed consoles for each side of the fireplace…….. I WILL do more detailed information later.

Tufted sofa, pair of cocktail tables, wonderful artwork and pillows – horizontal white wash panels

We are completing the FRESH MARKET cafe’ in Tupelo, Ms this week. I’m very excited about their opening. We have gone through a lot to get there, but it has been a great experience. We were given a building that, in any other circumstance, would be a tear down situation. It was a mess! A big one. It had been a fast food restaurant and ignored for a year or two after it closed. I will tell you about the phases of this exciting but crazy project. This first photo, if I can find it, is the way we found the building.

EXISTING BUILDING -a year ago.

This is actually showing the “good” side of the building.

We did reuse the structure. Gutted the interior and started over. So I suppose one would call this an adoptive reuse? Maybe not. But it is a very good “redo”.

I hope you enjoy the journey.

Home and Garden, Lighting design

Just to through it in, these are really neat. Yes, it looks like chicken wire with glass! I love the other two also. Looks like old, blown glass. And the “old look” light bulbs are about as new and hot as can be. Has a soft elegance about it, doesn’t it. Thomas Edison would be proud.

Is that a chicken wire pendant?

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.
