RHL ~ HOME COLLECTION

When Ralph Lauren pursues something, his goal is perfection.  Rustic pieces may not always be a favorite of mine, but he some how he manages to make every single piece scream home, a perfect home.  This collection would be great in a mountain home on the lake.  ENJOY!

JANE MOORE ~ A HOUSTON TOWNHOUSE

After a divorce, interior designer Jane Moore decided to clean house and keep only the pieces or furniture and accessories that she truly loved.  Using pastel and white slipcovered upholstery and rustic French and Swedish furnishings, Moore created a serene and lovely home for herself.  Moore's use of gilded pieces finishes off the elegant look.

I am in love with the kitchen, and agree with Moore's decision to use furniture pieces instead of cabinets.  The rustic pieces in the kitchen and dining room give the rooms the comfortable farmhouse look and feel she was looking for.  ENJOY!

BENJAMIN DHONG ~ SAN FRANCISCO STYLE

When the uber-talented interior designer Benjamin Dhong designs a room, he creates a space for good living.  Ben's use of art is stunning and is what first drew me to his work. The candelabra in the first image has me drooling, as does the guilted wallpaper. The title of the article in which this San Francisco row house is showcased is Sexy Dreamy Dramatic.  I think the title fits perfectly.

The client, a 40-year-old British investment banker, asked for a very modern interior, but Dhong knew that a person who chooses to drive an Aston Martin and wear bespoke suits may not be as modern as they think they are.  Working with the client, he created a contemporary yet chic interior using an eclectic mix. The textures, designs, and colors of the fabrics, rugs, and furnishings are diverse, and the wall colors meld it together perfectly. ENJOY!

















Ben mentioned the music of Etta James in the article, and since she is one of my favorite artists, 
I thought I would add a little "At Last" to this post.  James will be missed, but her music will always stand the test of time.


Thank you, Ben, for making certain that I didn't miss this spectacular home and your work.
