AT HOME IN VERMONT

When artist Laura Zindel and Thorsten Lauterbach bought a 4,800-square-foot, 1778 Vermont farmhouse, they didn’t realize how much their life was about to change. The couple learned early on that the people in Guilford cared a lot about not only their town, but also the people and their homes.

Zindel now sells her ceramics at an annual sale in her hometown, which is right up there with another main event, the Strolling of the Heifers.  ENJOY!

THE LONG AWAITED HOUSE OF WINDSOR BY VERANDA MAGAZINE

Veranda’s first concept house is complete now, and Windsor Smith and nine other designers have shown their immense talents in the design of the 8,000 square-foot home in Los Angeles’ Brentwood.  The home, which Windsor built, is not only drop-dead beautiful, it is functional.

Below are the rooms that were designed by Windsor Smith and nine individual artists.  As I turned each page, I was stunned at how fluid and spectacular the results were.  ENJOY!

WINDSOR SMITH: Entry Hall, Family Room, and Kitchen.





RICHARD HALLBERG: Dining Room.


RICHARD SHAPIRO: Great Room.



CANDACE BARNES: Master Bedroom, Bath, and Dressing Room.




PETER DUNHAM: Guest Suite and Study.



TARA SHAW: Bedroom.

 MARTYN LAWRENCE BULLARD: Media Room.


PAUL ROBBINS: Landscape Design and STEPHEN BLOCK: Patios.




KATHRYN IRELAND: The Stable.  Can I live here?


See you soon,

WILLIAM FRAWLEY ~ DESIGN IN SOHO

Fashion designer William Frawley takes the body a little to seriously if you ask some, but for others, his obsession with anatomies is interesting and amusing.  All you have to do is walk in to this shoe designer’s studio in Manhattan’s SoHo neighborhood to see that the anatomical drawings are massive in number, which compliment the animal skin rugs and art.  ENJOY!

PAOLO MOSCHINO AND TYLER MANDIE ~ DESIGN IN KENSINGTON

When Sofia and Niccolo Baratieri di San Pietro decided to renovate and design a new home, they called on sought after interior designer Paolo Moschino to take over.  Moschino now owns the Haslam firm that was formerly owned by Nicky Haslam.

The couple, both Italians, moved to England before meeting.  Sofia owns an upscale online fashion apparel business.

The renovation, completed by architect Tyler Mandic, required that a main wall in the apartment building be moved to meld two Kensington apartments, the owner’s former apartment and another that became available.   This was a major undertaking, but everything turned out beautifully.  ENJOY!

ED PROSEL’S INDIANA FARMHOUSE

When bond trader Ed Prosel walked into a sale on an Indiana farmhouse, his reason for the purchase was a need for space, a space for his massive collection of antiques. Mention was never made of the wineries and Lake Michigan.  Prosel travels from his home in Illinois to Indiana frequently.

This bond trader may sell bonds by day, but his hobby as a collector has landed him some beautiful collectables, and his taste is obviously educated.  ENJOY!
