A French Law Office













Okay, so I'm trying to find an inspiration image
for a law office I'm working on.  The head
lawyer is a woman and she asked if we could
used Tiffany's signature color.

Can you see any of these images working in
a law firm?

Gelato and Lighting??


















The amazing colors of Gelato could be the inspiration for a
great design project.  I found these images of a Gelato store
and fell in love with the concept and the results.  It is suppose
to be Gelato by the seashore.

The pink light fixtures are some samples of lighting that
I might use if I were designing a Gelato or Ice Cream Store.

My shero Alexandra Stoddard was all about finding the
simple pleasures in life.  She even talked about tasting color.
When you eat an amazing piece of fruit do think about the
color you are tasting?

Macarons or Macaroons--love their colors

 I loved the exterior lighting on this bakery and, harder to see,
the interior pendants are charming too.

In celebration of bakeries I've added several pics from a bakery
in Bevery Hills.

Welcome to 'lette macarons!

The Benefits of Kissing


As people kiss, the amount of the hormone we create in the brain,
oxytocin, increases. Among many other functions,
oxytocin is thought to reduce stress and elevate feelings
of happiness.

Hope you remember to kiss the one you love...it will improve
your weekend.  :)

A Beach Frame of Mind






I love the soft colors and textures of these pictures.

I know, I know, many of you in blog land have
expressed how happy you are that fall is in the air.
  Well, what I like about the beach in the
fall is that the crowds have left and I can find
solitude except for the occasional beachcomber
and sea gull.

Happy Friday!!  Is everyone looking forward
to football this weekend?

A Room of Her Own







Each one of these bathrooms is wonderful in its
own right.  They have some great light
fixtures--chrystal chandeliers, pendants, sconces. 
Bathrooms are a great place for a Lutron dimmer. 
You can really set the mood for a relaxing soak.

I LOVE my bathtub.  It's where I go when
I need to get away from it all.  How about you...do
you like a bath or a shower?
