So Fresh and So Clean Clean

A couple of weeks ago, we attended the Kitchen & Bath show,or KBIS as it's known in the biz.   While it was a bit, well, meh-inducing, there were a few things that we saw that we would like to share.  Kick back and take a look: 

Toto had some new cool items - faucets and an LED sink



Neorest Vessel II Lavatory with LED Lighting



Artistic Tile always has amazing product, and we don't get to see it often because we don't have a showroom in Las Vegas





Many hardware companies were showing super glossy and chic white hardware like these pieces from Atlas


Enkeboll definitely won, in our eyes, for the most fabulous booth.  And they make the most gorgeous architectural wood pieces. Here was the outside of it: 



And the inside: 




And, the grand finale HAS to be Kohler's new insane toilet, the Numi




It is lit in the back, so it can act as a soft nighlight in your bathroom.  It has a seat warmer, a foot warmer, and a bidet function with warm water and air.  The seat automatically raises once or twice, depending on where your feet are placed when you approach the toilet.  Most hilariously, (is that a word?) it has a place to hook up your Ipod.

And here is the handheld control for it.  No kidding.  I can't wait to see what they come out with next year to beat this.

Chillin in this tropical locale

Riding a bike, kinda


Going to a wine tasting in Napa



Baking Easter goodies: 


Better yet, eating Macarons



Picking flowers


What do you wish you were doing?

I DIE

1950s Copenhagen Chair Hair-on-Hide Back

Restoration Hardware's reinterpretation of the classic Egg chair is making me crazy.  I need it - though I have nowhere to put it.  For now, I can only dream of buying it for a client. 



They are calling it the Copenhagen chair, I'm sure, in a nod to the original designer of this classic chair - Arne Jacobsen. 
He designed this chair in 1958 for the Radisson SAS  hotel in Copenhagen.  He was a design and architecture genius and a major contributor to the Danish Modern style. 

Of course, the hair on hide option on the back of the chair is a MUST

WHAT????  It comes in a kid size as well


There are many more interpretations of this chair that are fun, but not as much fun as hair on hide on the back of the chair, right?







A timeless piece of furniture is always a MUST for your interiors.  Get yourself an Egg.  And call me and tell me all about it.

At the Copa

Not that I'm trying to brag, but we have had some amazing weather these past few weeks and I'm starting to look forward to summer.  Not Vegas 150 degree summer with 30 mph winds.  Vegas pre-summer, when it's 85 degrees and be-yoo-tiful.  Like right now. 

So when I got the new Pottery Barn catalog, I started drooling over these cabana drapes.  Check em out: 


Sunbrella® Awning Stripe Outdoor Drape, 50 x 84"


And now I'm ready for my own cabana drapery.  Let's get some inspiration: 



Outdoor Grommet Drape
Pottery Barn, again



Exterior drapery adds so much drama and turn your backyard into a mini resort.  Isn't it crazy what a little fabric can do? 

Even Ms. Fabulous Kelly Wearstler put this sassy drapery at the Viceroy in Palm Springs



Practically every pool in Vegas has cabana drapery


Tao at the Venetian




I think my cabana drapery will help me embrace the Las Vegas summer.  Let's hope.

We Gone Country

Well, we all haven't gone country around here, but I'm jonesing for my country house right now - especially after researching Dutch Doors for a client that is requesting one. 



The original purpose of these doors was to keep the farm animals out of the house, while letting a little light in

For example:   






Can't you just imagine yourself leaning out the door, gazing at the rolling meadows and your cute little piggies and Sicilian Donkeys while having a cup of joe in the morning?

They even have cool ones for the kiddies:

Shut the front door, these are so cute.  I could look at them all day!

All that AND...well, you know

We had been hearing all of the hype weeks before it opened.  But we had heard it before and were trying not to get our hopes up. 
Well too bad, people, because it is ALL THAT AND MORE! 



The lighting is amazing, all of the finishes are sparkly and fresh and even the valet area is beautiful







Up in da club, Marquee




In the shopping area, rows and rows of antique sewing machines.




Rooms, lobbies and more deliciousness











I mean, even the inside of the closets are GORG

Let's meet for cocktails, shall we?
