go bold.

small space, big statement! the graphic "tile" wallpaper by cole and sons (through lee jofa) is insanely good in this tiny vestibule.

chic needn't cost a fortune (a tumblr greatest hit)

a bathroom from morgans (the original boutique hotel), by design goddess, andrée putman, circa 1984. the black and white tiles were selected because the budget was so tight, and they were the cheapest material putman could find- proof that chic needn’t cost a fortune.


in an effort to post a little more frequently, maison21 will be copying what television networks have done for years, and air some reruns during the summer. don't worry, we will still do original content as well  (battle of the network stars, anyone?), but we are also going to rerun select posts from our tumblr blog (like the one above) on occasion.   happy summer!

hear me roar!



hear me roar!

or rather, click here to hear me stumble through two brief sentences at the 2:16 mark in the linked video on editorTV.  it's funny- in real life, you can't shut me up, but shove a big ol' video camera and microphone in my face, and m21 becomes a stuttering, tounge-tied wallflower (oh sh*t- i shouldn't have typed that, should i? now all my friends will undoubtedly carry cameras and mics, so they can actually get a word in every once in a while...)

thanks to julia noran, of the editor at large and jason oliver nixon, of demystifying design, for making my (almost) virgin camera experience so easy.

oh, and HGTV? have your people call my people- we'll do lunch.  ;-)
