Trevor honey, I’m not done with you yet. After we make some little photographer/designer genius babies, we must dissect some of your photos. These spaces get me all hot and bothered (or simply intrigued) for several reasons…..

What a HOT bedroom! Love the wallpaper/graffiti walls with that super sexy photo over the bed.

I’d do laundry in here every freaking day!

I’m not sure what the purpose of this room is, but it looks like the set on a stage at a strip club. I like it. 😉

One of our photog/design babies had better be a boy because he’ll stay 6 forever and have a blast in this room.

Great idea for some graphic DIY art work.

How about doodling on the glass of some framed art with some whiteboard markers?

Hanging balls of…tissue paper? Works for me!

I could not get enough of Steven Sclaroff‘s work, so here’s another that knocked my socks off. Well, the photo above alone did that. The suzani bedcover with the matching graphic photograph above the bed and similar patterned dark curtains = perfection. This one’s for the inspiration folder. Anyway, this happens to be the former apartment of Steven in a nineteenth century townhouse in New York’s West Village. And I love it’s quirkiness, like the carved bear coat rack. 🙂








AMAZEBALLS. The first word that came to my mind when I saw this spectacular home. Steven Sclaroff was responsible for the restoration and interior design of this former studio and school building in William Merritt Chase’s Southampton Art Colony, founded in 1892…which now happens to be the home of Kate and Andy Spade (yes, THAT Kate Spade). The nine thousand square foot residence retains many original details and preserves the two large studios where Chase taught. This home immediately brought a smile to my face, and I imagine it brings a smile to everyone’s face who has had the pleasure to visit it in person. Now THAT IS A HOME. Steven Sclaroff, you are a GENIUS.



















Beauty in simplicity. Beauty in the imperfect. Beauty captured by photographer Seth Smoot. Soft natural night, rough natural surfaces. A story teller with a lens. Hello new photographer crush.
