Cambridge-based designer Kate Maloney of Kate Maloney Interiors recently launched Stitch by KMI Design, an ecommerce site that features her furniture and accessory finds. Here’s a sampling of the wares. Then scroll down for examples of her design work.
Here are images of some interiors that Kate decorated. My favorites are of a house on the beach in Connecticut that she did for a family last year, but I’ll save those for a separate post.

How would you feel about a Netflix for books? Sure, you could just go to the library to borrow them, but that would require so much energy. There’s always the bookstore, with plenty of comfy chairs and snacks, but really, who has the time? I’m guessing that was the reasoning behind the creation of BookSwim, a book rental service that provides free shipping both ways complete with handy (and heavy-duty) envelope.
The publicist sent me a note about BookSwim and activated a free three-month account so I could try it. I didn’t find tons of design titles (though really, aren’t those the kinds of books you want to own anyway?), but I did find plenty of up-to-date beach reads (the fluffy pink books you don’t really want to populate your shelves), as well as a number of tempting kids books.
I created a pool, prioritized and yes, the books came to my door. Love that. Read them, popped them back into the envelope and shipped them off. Easy.
Not sure if I’ll renew my membership, but I might.

I was back in town last week. Here are the changes I noticed on Newbury:
Le Tigre is open. Since when did they become relevant again?
Judi Rotenberg Gallery is closed. It’s too bad; they had some great work.
And right downstairs, Shu Uemura has shuttered too. Probably because they were so rude. [NOTE: A reader was offended by this comment, so I’ll clarify.] I found the service at this boutique to be unprofessional and unresponsive each time I stopped by or contacted them. By contrast, the service at MAC (112 Newbury Street) is always impeccable. PS – I use products from both lines and love them.
