Montage: Clocks
I like to know what time it is. That will come as no surprise to those of you who know me, since it goes along with my über organized mindset. (Though, my husband will surely point out that I’m not actually ever on time.) In any case, the clock has always been a feature of [...]

Design Diary: Frank Roop’s Studio
Photo courtesy of Stuff Magazine Last year, interior designer Frank Roop purchased a 725-square-foot condo on Newbury Street to serve as his studio and office. I popped in last spring to go over the details on the gorgeous Nantucket house that I wrote about for the Boston Globe Magazine (and this blog). While I was [...]

ARTmonday: Tabitha Vevers
I first became acquainted with the artwork of Tabitha Vevers through my mother-in-law, who gave me a series of three small works – birds eggs in architectural frames. Later I saw one of her gilded shell pieces at their home in Cape Cod – a disturbing but compelling image painstakingly painted on the interior of [...]

Covet: Missoni Madness
A brightly patterned rug is a quick and easy way to spruce up a plain space. I’ve been coveting the swirly Paul Smith design by The Rug Company for years, but its sky high price tag makes it the stuff of dreams. Last week I heard from Caroline Morson of the impeccable, high end Boston [...]

Montage: Nautical Living
I personally opt for the light and breezy seaside look infused with watery greens and sky blues, but the crisp look of primary reds and blues prevalent in more nautical decor makes for great rooms too. With white cotton duck slipcovers, some lengths of rope, a sailcloth or two, plus a few well placed oars, [...]

Montage: Daybeds al Fresco
Today is hot, hot, hot. And sunny. Why I am not at the beach I am uncertain. Mainly just lazing around, with open windows and no breeze. Kids tossing the football and playing Star Wars (with plenty of fighting in between). Perhaps I’d be more inclined to sit outdoors if I had a set up [...]
