I spotted this architecture and design project by Kara Mann in her portfolio and thought it was fabulous. It is the Talbott Hotel in Chicago that got the makeover of a lifetime thanks to Kara’s edgy glam style. I found some photos on their Facebook page. It wasn’t pretty then but it sure is now!!!

Tammy Connor‘s impeccably curated traditional style transformed this charming log cabin with the most beautiful weathered wood into an absolute gem. Tammy’s approach of taking such a rough, rustic structure and making it look so refined yet comfortable is quite something. I adore everything about this. 

A chill wind is whistling around my house, tugging on windows and licking under doors. I’m cold and miserable and need a little lift. Time for a virtual getaway. Ah Morocco can you get anymore perfect? Sunshine sliding down smooth plaster walls, dappled shadows on plunge pools, mid century classics mixed with medina finds. A beautiful escape to the Beautiful Riad Marrakesh.

This is quite the modern, glamorous penthouse in Chicago, architected and designed by the incredibly talented Kara Mann. But the pièce de résistance is that bathroom. DAMN GIRL will you look at that marble!!!!

When unexpected styles collide. A fabulous home designed by Seattle-based Brio Interior Design. A 1940’s home where the client’s mother spent her teenage years was purchased from the grandfather’s estate shortly after his passing. The purchase and renovation were a way to reinvent history by making an old home new again for the young family who decided the house carried too many precious memories to be sold to the next highest bidder. Perched atop a generously sized waterfront lot in north Seattle with panoramic views of the Puget Sound, the Olympic Peninsula and Olympic mountain range, the aesthetic of the home is classic meets modern and eclectic. It’s fun, colorful and whimsical. Perfect for a family that dines most days together in a formal dining room around a table that family members have gathered at for decades to celebrate the best things in life.
