Composure in Cáceres

Posted on Tue, 10 Jan 2017 by midcenturyjo

Serenity. A sense of calm. Of peacefulness. Self-control and poise. An ease of living. A constraint. Carefully curated and cool but not disparate or dull. Imagine living in these rooms. The idea of settling in but not settling for. Home as meditation. By Madrid-based interior designer Luisa Olazabal.

Ode to Color – Lori Weitzner

Posted on Mon, 9 Jan 2017 by midcenturyjo

I was sent the newly launched book Ode to Color: The Ten Essential Palettes for Living and Design by textile designer Lori Weitzner before Christmas and didn’t get a chance to peruse it, much less prepare this post until now. I am sorry it took me so long because this book is delicious – a perfect addition to the stack on your coffee table. This book is truly a journey into the world of colour, and takes an in-depth look at the ten essential “color worlds”. Lori shares with us the connections to color on a psychological and spiritual level. “What connects them in a level of engagement: they speak to the senses on an emotional level, influencing our moods and jogging memory, and simply speaking to who we are, functioning as a form of self-expression.” The photos that accompany her thoughts are beautiful examples that really demonstrate the impact color has on our lives. It is truly a lovely book, from HarperCollins Publishers. You can ger yourself a copy here.

Sissi is modeling the gorgeous new coffee table Pedro made for me for Christmas. Live edge mesquite wood with hairpin legs. Am I the only one that gets this excited about furniture? 😍 #creekerdesign #mcm #liveedge #liveedgetable #hairpin #mesquite #woodworking #dtipetsonfurniture

A couple personal IG entries. This first one is my twin sister’s new puppy Benson. He’s totally adorable and matches their cat Lily. 🙂

Check this out! Like I said two posts ago, Lily is warming up to Benson. I didn’t get a pic of it but this morning, Lily was rolling over on the ground in front of Benson. Benson just sat there watching – so cute. I hope these two become great friends because come on, they freaking match. 😉😹🐶 #bensoncoffey #lilycoffey #bordercollielabmix #bordercolliesofinstagram #labsofinstagram #catsofinstagram #10weeks #newpuppy

My hair stylist has a farm with many cats, including some kittens he was worried would not survive the winter. A co-worker of mine agreed to take one and Murphy is the sweetest, most affectionate cat I have ever met. Her goldendoodle Eva adores him.

attached is a photo of my toy poodle, pico, in the kitchen. he always lies in the chair when i prepare his food–the better to see everything.
– Jenny (Amsterdam)

This is our cat Pepsi on her favorite spot.
– Katharina (Nuremberg, Germany)

Her name is Diesel (because she is so black that the name fits her perfectly). We are from sunny Spain (even in winter hahahah) and she is standing on a very recognizable chair, my favourite at home.
