“be impolite”

…says Stephan Boublil of the apartment.

I saw Stephan lecture this evening, and had the opportunity to enjoy dinner with him as well.
He says he is always trying to tell a story. The goal in and reason for working with a client is for you to get to know what, how, and who they are and create a space, project, branding, film, etc. that conveys their story. Do this, and do it by being you.

In his impoliteness there is a great sense of consideration – real consideration.

enjoy.

THE NEW traditionalists

  

 I stumbled upon them this week, and I really like their NEW tradition.

“If you believe that “traditional” and “cool” are not mutually exclusive, you are one of The New Traditionalists.

“Designed in New York City.  Manufactured in New England.  Influenced by classic silhouettes, exceptional clothing, objects, history, and you. Connecting traditional and today. Hand rubbed finishes. Hand made furniture. Environmentally smart.

“‘If you want to understand today, you have to search yesterday.'”

                                                                          -Pearl S. Buck

I LOVE these pieces…

Loveseat no. Seventy Seven

Side Table no. Twelve

Chair no. Twenty Nine

Sofa no. Two Thirty Three

They also have some gorgeous finishes…

See all of them HERE, and all of the fabrics HERE.
