I am awestruck.<br /><br />I remember being floored by the Wormley sofas in a magazine article. How refreshing to see that his clients also appreciate that fearlessness.<br /><br />I think he actually does have a signature style--flat out fabulous.<br />I am far too much of a control freak to just hand over the reigns, but if anyone could persuade me to . . .<br /><br />I look forward to reading your past and future posts.<br /><br />RegardsAnonymous[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543457325368639597.post-47525997126972829982010-03-31T15:52:37.875-07:002010-03-31T15:52:37.875-07:00Diane!

You bring out the best in people and I was enchanted. Things like ... his career wasn’t a choice but somehow pre-ordained or unavoidable.

I love the chandelier in blue in the dining room with the contemporary dining table. As always, a pleasure both visually and a great read. Thank you!!!

There are many new clients arriving in town (tech world) and they love him because he can install fast if that is what they need (baby on way, just can&#39;t wait for custom furniture).<br />SUPER DILETTANTE DEAR_<br />I am so sorry for this tech problem--it is a FEED BURNER PROBLEM that we are working on this weekend...please be sure to scroll back and read all my brilliant recent features--on MATISSE&#39;S HOUSE for example and many others you have missed.<br />Next up--THE GEM PALACE IN INDIA...You will love...and if it does not come up on your FEEDBURNER PING...click on your bookmarks and read it there.<br />Cheers...and next time I am in Turkey I will watch for a men&#39;s barber/haircutter...to see the color of their walls.

His design is bold, decadent and sumptuous and glowing with the fin-de-siècle imagination. My favourite one is the house in Sonoma. The sitting room with a stag head on the mantle piece put a smile on my face - but the extraordinary thing about that room is its colour - almost like advocado green (make me think of Turkish gentleman&#39;s hair salon - in a nice creative way, I mean). You see I wonder if the designer creates each interior with the imagination that Oscar Wilde wouldn&#39;t mind living there. I feel like in any minute, Dorian Gray would walk out from that living room or des Esseintes, a neurasthenic aristocrat character from A Rebours, a novel by Joris-Karl Huysmans.A Super Dilettantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02640893790909916004[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543457325368639597.post-79402011200441513522010-03-17T10:42:22.361-07:002010-03-17T10:42:22.361-07:00So in tune with his ideas- the South does ingrain itself on you. Jefferson a big check- I seem to remember a similar blue green paint at Monticello KF uses in the Sonoma house. Oscar Wilde is my hands down pick for dinner as well. Applaud his use of colour with controlled abandon- there is a grounded traditional element to most of these rooms, the common thread that gives them youth, garners respect-speaks volumes of sophistication.pgtP.Gaye Tapp at Little Auguryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15115534755711063462[email protected]
