It’s here! Grab your copy of the NYTimes to see Anne’s DUMBO apartment – or check it out online: article / slideshow. A special thank you to Tim McKeough, Trevor Tondro and Ryan Scherb, the outstanding writing and photography teams from the paper. We had lots of fun working with all them over the past few months.

Above / Art and objects on the wall collected over time. The large black and white photograph was a gift from Ryan’s best friend, Jeff Martin. The photo depicts a football game between rival high school teams Northfield and Deerfield in 1965, where a fire of the building behind the field wasn’t enough to even pause play! Photo was taken by Robert S. Van Fleet, courtesy of Northfield Mount Herman School archives.
The patterned chairs which inspired the article’s title are 1970s vintage (we didn’t reupholster!) from 1stDibs@NYDC.

Traditional Home Scotland Panel – Today!
Traditional Home & Designers in Edinburgh, Summer 2012
Today, Anne is speaking on a panel about the incredible travels she took this past summer with Traditional Home Magazine and Scottish Development International at the D&DBuilding, 14th Floor. We’re all excited to share our insights about the incredible textiles and design coming from the beautiful and historic Scotland as well as reveal a unique chair design by each designer, inspired by the trip.
Panel will be moderated by Ronda Carman of All the Best Blog and Beth Brenner of Traditional Home. Panelists include my travelmates and esteemed designers, Gideon Mendelson, Patrik Lonn, Tobi Fairley and Phillip Gorrivan!
Save the Date for Scottish Style!
We’ll be having breakfast and revealing our Scottish inspired statement chairs next Tuesday! Join us to see how the trip to Scotland inspired our unique upholstery treatment and textile selections for this adorable little chair (a sneak peek of our seating selection). We can’t wait to see what Tobi Fairley, Gideon Mendelson, Philip Gorrivan and Patrik Lonn have up their sleeves.
