I LOVE an open floorplan. We just moved from a very big open floorplan to a smaller version. In our new home, the kitchen looks over the family room by virtue of a taller than typical half wall wit...

As a kitchen designer, I can tell you that black came into a strong trend in kitchens about 1, maybe 2 years ago...which worries me because trends come and go and a kitchen is a long time purchase....

Oh, sorry I didn't get back till now. No, I'm not in that picture, but that is my husband and kids on the left side! What a nice memory for you. Those moments are so precious.

Love the beams, and it's a very interesting blue/gray color. Love the fireplace mantel as well.

Hate it. My goal is to design my kitchen with a big furniture like island that transitions to a family room, which happens to be a few feet away. At this stage (kids grown) there is less likely to ...

So, here's a little album with a few pictures from a couple of years ago. I took some good photos last year but they're in a hard drive that I can't find at the moment. I have some actual paper pho...

You got it....let me find some images, just got back here. I'll add them today or tomorrow, my pleasure!

I guess I'm surprised he'd have a whole case! He's 95! Unless it was just the case and it held sodas, which he always has, so yes, I thought that was funny/cute. It's also common to have a beer at ...

I usually have several heads of garlic hanging around and I keep them in a bowl nearby, in a very decorative bowl that I love. The onions do go into a good looking wire basket in the corner, nothin...

How sad. There was always something fresh and fun and innovative in Domino. I'm sorry for those who are out of a job if they couldn't be transferred to other publications.

Slate...from the northeast only, and unfading green is one of the best. No need to ever seal it, it's denser than granite, it does not stain. It's a beautiful matte finish and has this wonderful, o...

Those curtains are ridiculously authentic! Good post!

Oh, I don't think so...what was 80s was all the red oak floors that got pickled and turned to pink! If it's whitewashed with paint, that's totally different (to me, anyway.)

I have less than zero time in the weeks ahead, but I think this is a great opportunity, as a kitchen designer, to really slowly break down some fundamental issues in the kitchen, and to do it, not ...

I'm really glad you guys like it...I haven't been able to get it out of my mind either since August. The walnut is gorgeous, the teak, with a soap finish I saw last week was very, sort of beachy an...

art, please email me for future reference. Julianna, that's a valid point. I can tell you that the entire product is green, including wood from managed forests, adhesives, and all of ...

I walked into Hansen's Copenhagen showroom in August, and I was so moved by Knud's beautiful, yet simple, design that I immediately resolved to bring these pieces to the U.S. one way or another. So...

Once, a Bosnian friend served me that coffee in these tiny cups. I drank it, it was interesting, and then finished it off, which included all sorts of sediment at the bottom. He laughed, I choked!

What you could do is pick out a great wallpaper just for the backsplash and put plate glass on top of it. This is becoming a wide spread trend, at least in Denmark, where I looked at lots of kitche...

Anything Curtis puts his personal imprint on is soulful. Nicely done!
