34 Buddhas in Decor
I still haven’t tried yoga. Too peaceful. I did however just sign up for a modern dance class at Boston University. The teacher is amazing, and I’m trying my best to blend with the thirty plus twenty-year-old girls (and boy). Anyway, yoga and prancing aside, I do appreciate the serenity of a Buddha. When I lived in NYC, the Buddha room at the Met Museum was one of my favorite places for decompressing. Buddha heads (ad sometimes bodies) are popular adornments in homes in search of zen.

Design Diary: Vera Wang’s Beverly Hills Home
Vera Wang recently purchased a modernist dream of a home in Beverly Hills. This month’s Harper’s Bazaar got the scoop on the Steve Hermann designed space. (He’s also the previous owner, and sold the house to Wang.) I found additional shots of the house on his site, though some of these circulated this summer when the Wall Street Journal reported that Wang purchased the house for about $10 million.
This is the entryway. Wang’s wearing a Rick Owens vest and skirt and her own Ann Demeulemeester boots. The bag is Hermes, the watch Rolex.
The back of the house, complete with covered patio and pool.
Can you believe Wang is 62-years-old? Insane. She says in the article she’s not the type to wear heels with her swimsuit. But when you’re posing for a fashion mag, you kinda have to. The swimsuit is Eres and the bustier over top is Alexander Wang. The heels are Manolo Blahnik, of course.
I didn’t even realize until I read the caption that this is the kitchen. Talk about sleek. Wang’s dress is Azzedine Alaia and the Mary Janes are Giuseppe Zanotti.
The dining area.
The living room. The TV doesn’t look half bad over the fireplace.
The walk-in closet she shares with her husband, Arthur Becker. Love the cowhide cubes. She should probably add some color to her West Coast wardrobe.

ARTmonday: Tim Bavington
Las Vegas based artist Tim Bavington is known for his vertically-oriented stripe paintings. While many of his works are rigid, the ones I like best are blurred and drippy. The paintings are abstract interpretations of music.
Using synthetic polymer paint, Bavington translates guitar solos, melodies, and bass lines, including those from The Darkness, Oasis, and The Rolling Stones, into vibrant bands of color. Although Bavington has a method that designates sound to color and composition, the paintings are not literal translations.
He also creates some that have an ink-blot sort of feel, though I’m not certain these are also related to music.
