ISN'T IT IRONIC?

Iron balusters on a stair constantly pose a quandary. Specifically as it pertains to code issues. I long for the good old days when they could be spaced however one deemed appropriate from a design stand point. We have been known to put in dummies to get past a pesky inspector, then knock the middle bit out after the certificate of occupancy has been issued. Shhh....don't tell anyone! It becomes, however, a challenge to come up with a design that is both beautiful and legal. If you have solutions, I'd love to hear about it!

THE ART OF THE INSTALL...

Art is the ultimate accessory in my book. It's the icing on the cake, the dotting of the proverbial "i" the crossing of the "t". What are our spaces without it? The adventure of displaying it in a creative, ever-engaging manner is always the most challenging portion of any installation. The placement of that one piece can drastically transform space and in turn one can simply move a piece to another location and you see that particular work in a whole different light! A room without art is an interior without soul...

A VOTRE SANTE

In the old days, cellaring wine was relatively simple, even if the rules were iron clad. A good wine cellar had to be dark, because light could cause changes in wines. It had to be still and vibration free, because even small amounts of motion or shaking could speed up the wine's process of maturation, stir up its sediments, agitate it, and cause who knows what undesirable chemical changes. It had to be a constant 55 degrees (or 45 degrees - experts disagreed), because heat is the great enemy of wine, causing it to age much too fast and unpredictably, and also contributing to undesirable chemical changes. It had to have constant 35 percent humidity, to prevent corks from drying out, which would destroy the wine by leakage, oxidation, and - you guessed it - undesirable chemical changes.

The purpose of cellaring wines was exclusively to mature them for drinking - and by God - we do love drinking that beautiful aged bottle of bordeaux in a cool cellar any day!

PATINA

"Patina is everything that happens to an object over the course of time. The nick in the leg of a table, a scratch on a table top, the loss of moisture in the paint, all these things add up to create a softer look, subtle color changes, a character. Patina is built from all the effects, natural and man-made, that create a true antique."
Israel Sack

SAN MARCO USA
San Marco lime washes and mineral paints are beautiful traditional materials that mellow gradually while they wear away, and over time develop the extraordinary patinas that characterize the old-world charm of Europe.

Liming is a highly fashionable means of revitalizing the look of surfaces giving them a comforting, time worn appearance.
