Kristin Hohenadel's Profile

KTG,

Thank you for pointing out those are coffee holders. I guess I have forgotten what they look like living in France where take-out coffee has yet to catch on (and my egg cartons from the farmers market are made from the same material!).

Kimber,
I rarely intervene here for obvious reasons, but if you think that the author of this post, who has made her living as a writer for many years, is advocating that books or other forms of print have gone "out of style," then you have missed my point.

By the way, the branch chandelier on GOOP is by Tord Boontje.

The Habitat light fixture costs about 80 euros -- not at all in the same price range.

Enamorada,
The chairs in the first picture are vintage kids chairs. I guess the photographer must have pulled them up to the table for the picture.

Thanks for catching the typo, Fraise.

click212,
yes, a tea warmer

Thanks for the summary, rakimou!

Bolder,
The table is described as a "bistro" table -- which probably means it is either vintage or second-hand from a restaurant that remodeled or went out of business.

Also: The funny thing about the "EAU" in the photo is that the more usual trendy thing people are doing with their letters in Paris these days is to write words in English -- like LOVE, HOME or KITCHEN. You see this all the time in home decor -- but you never see any French people with AMOUR or MAISON plastered on their walls or pillows.

Fraise,
Thanks for the note -- and yes I do speak fluent French! -- but since we are an American blog, I wrote it in English for the English-speakers!

Kit,
Would love to see a photo! If you feel like sharing, you can send it to kristinh @ apartmenttherapy . com
