bepsf: I thought the same thing. But that was not Mark's choice.

Mark, this looks amazing. Can't wait to see it finished (possibly, with more contrast/depth added to the background and shadows to the objects?)

patrick, maybe it'll be easier if you show them venetian sconces of 18th cent, to establish the historical precedent. the concept is centuries-old - and proven to be effective

Excellent work. My only small suggestion is that I'd like to see that elegant facade violet-gray reflected in the interiors more. For instance, in the leather upholstery of those gorgeous low side ...

*bepsf: the arrangement would be useful if the sink was the corner model, with a faucet at the centerline

A muscular space if there is one. And a bit Victorian, in atmosphere - but without Victorian fussiness; color choices - definitely, and overall dramatic dark/light contrast effect.

Amberyvette: "Sourgrapes" would be a logical reaction if I'd be battling to get this project and was rejected. Which is absolutely not the case - where am I and where's LA! Besides, I don't w...

Thank you, Matt, what a beautiful and original artist.

yes, that what's missing in my life: sense of time

Ah, such fun! These are lovely.

What girl ever refuses chocolate?

Me and Ms.Stewart think alike. When i selected colors&finishes for my bedroom 3 years ago, I chose the scheme that this set will complement perfectly. Cherry, black Vietnamese lacquer, mirro...

It is delicious. I just made it and it is great. http://eta-ta.livejournal.com/107229.html Thank you for the recipe!

Did lots of canning (more out of necessity, than out of pure love) in the past, but in my family we traditionally manage to turn necessity into fun. Couldn't resist the tempting look of the I...

Well, actually, it looks like the cat did...if not exactly with water.
