Barn Doors & Barn Door Hardware


I have a long time love affair going on....
with barn doors.


When I used this concept in a job 10 years ago,
it was hell to find the hardware.

At the bottom of this post you will find the source for these
barn doors & the hardware.
It is a great site.



There is a great selections of barn doors
on this site.
Use your imagination.....
where would you use a BARN DOOR?







Do you like barn doors ?
And if you do....
Where would you used a barn door?

Have a great week.

An Artists Retreat In Bolinas California


I was watching a expose on a community in California called Bolinas.
When I googled images for Bolinas California 
up popped this artists retreat.
I was wow'd out 
by the interiors so I have posted the home in Bolinas.


I found out who the designer was 
and it was a mother daughter team from Truckee Nevada.
Have you ever been to Lake Tahoe?
I have. 
My Dad had 2 restaurants on the Lake.
It is amazing there....the area truly is kissed by G-d.

Well, Truckee Nevada is right outside of Tahoe....
on the way to Reno.


Truckee is the town where this mother daughter team have their design studio.
Catherine & Justine Macfee.






I really love the tree trunk inside the kitchen.


Anyway, this town Bolinas California intrigued me,
so I have put some pictures of the beach for you at the end of this post.






Have a great day.
It is finally warming up here in Maine.

Yet....
it is still too cold to go without a jacket.
YUK!

Late Snow In Maine


It seems as though summer will never come.
We have had temps in the 20's all week.


The Mainer's assure me that this has been a horrible winter 
and that it is a rare one as well.
In March I was really wondering if I could tolerate 
these Maine winters.


But alas......the memory of summer,
and the hope of a Maine summer keeps me going.
Yes.
Summer in Maine is that magical.
I love every day of it.

Arcadia



The lilacs will soon arrive.


The deep green will arrive.


And my favorite summer flower.....
the poppy will come too!!!

You Never Get A Second Chance To Make A First Impression -The Nomad Hotel


THE NOMAD  HOTEL

Wouldn't this make a fabulous movie set.
I think so.
I adore this front desk.

In a Film, this extraordinary look could be used in several time periods.

(maybe I like it so much because the designer used gobs of fabric
and fabulous light fixtures)

The Nomad Hotel

Impressive entrance/
and 'beginning' for a hotel.
No?

Remember you
Never Get a Second Chance To Make A First Impression


Divine NYC


The Nomad Hotel

I would be very comfy hiding out here with a book.

The Nomad Hotel

Out of the city into this darkened refuse.
It feels like a great room for a secret meeting.
(use your imagination) 
The Nomad Hotel

Straddle right up to this regal bar for a sip of some social lubricant.

I could eat every meal here.....everyday.

The Nomad Hotel's
Roof Top Dining


I love the way the rooms feel as though they are actual bedrooms in a home.


The drapery header is hidden by the cornice 
which is a continuation of the molding.
I love the look.



A masculine headboard.
Leather and nailheads.





If I were traveling to NYC often 
and for longer periods of time.....
I would make the Nomad Hotel my home away from home.

What do you think of The Nomad?
