LUIS BUSTAMANTE ~ DESIGN IN MIAMI

When Madrid-based interior designer Luis Bustamante was asked to design this weekend and holiday home for a client, he had a valuable art collection to consider. The pieces were interchanged between the family's three homes, so in order to accommodate the collection, the paint, fabric, and furniture in this Miami condominium had to be neutral and simple without sacrificing beauty. ENJOY!







See you soon,

THANKSGIVING WITH THE FABULOUS BEEKMAN BOYS

Instead of my usual recipe on Saturday, I thought I would shake things up a bit!

If you like the sound of maple-bourbon roasted turkey, ancho-spiked sweet potatoes, and apple pie with rosemary and honey, pick up your copy of the November Country Living and get the recipes. I am telling you that this cook is going to put this menu of old family recipes from Brent Ridge and Josh Kilmer-Purcell of television’s Fabulous Beekman Boys to the test! ENJOY!

CAROLYN ROEHM ~ SEASONAL TABLETOP DESIGN

When Carolyn Roehm designs a table landscape, we are certain it will be a show-stopper.  The designer only uses candlelight in her dining rooms because she believes that the light given off by the candle adds beautiful reflection and ambiance to the room.

Roehm uses multiple height candles, ranging from short up to 40 inches tall and prefers off-white, bright-white, and black candles unless she can find colors that match the china or flowers perfectly. She prefers Root Candles and Colonial Candles and loves using pinecone-shaped candles in a rustic setting.  The designer favors scented candles and only uses Balsam scent during the Christmas holidays.  ENJOY!

See you soon,
Teresa

CHAD EISNER ~ DESIGN IN BEVERLY HILLS

The owners of this Los Angeles home didn't want to move and leave all of their memories behind, so they called on talented designer Chad Eisner to renovate and design the interior. The result is a home that is the epitome of chic and luxury with a relaxed and comfortable feel.

Eisner used very large pieces sparingly throughout the home. The light fixture in the living room, the chandelier over the custom made dining table, with chairs found in Paris, and the silk-velvet fabrics are just a preview of what can be seen in this home. The eglomise panels in the dining room are stunning, and the large mirror in the sculptured garden is spectacular, bringing the outside in.  ENJOY!
