Ann's 'lifestyle" design philosophy is both unique and inspirational . . .
mixing the old with the new, layering colors, textures and antiques along
 with other world market finds . . .
 

Each one of the small vignettes is done with a European elegance . . .
mixing furniture and styles from many different time periods and places.



It truly is . . .
Comfortable Luxury at it's very best!!




Ann enjoys working in a variety of color palettes . . .
including some of our very favorite blues . . .


The sofa here above is upholstered in one of our Bainbridge Blues fabrics . . .

Thought for the day . . .


"Spend more, buy less.
Cheap stuff is usually cheap because of how it's made, what it's made of and who made it.  Buy better quality goods, less often . . ."
