I Love Glass

It Is So Important

And there are many reasons why....

Light

Bringing the outside inside -

I don't feel trapped in a room with huge windows.

It is bright and shiny....I like that!

While looking for just the right space for my new showroom....

 I found the location, and it wasn't easy to find a shop with enough 

window from left to right that would make me happy.

I did. It was perfect.

It just so happened the spot made my partner happy too,

and we knew this was the only unit for us.

But getting it was quite another story.

But finally after much finessing ....

we finally have the exact unit that we wanted. 

With big one big window!!!

re: this closet

Have you ever seen these closets ?

I am not sure, but I believe they are German made, and are absolutely cool.

Love them.

.

...and my point about how glass brings the outside inside,

it also will bring the inside outside.

 And that is just what I need 

when potential clients are walking, or driving by.

Right??

Jeanne-Françoise Julie Adélaïde Bernard Récamier

Jeanne-Françoise Julie Adélaïde Bernard Récamier ( December 4 , 1777 – May 11, 1849 ) was a Frenchwoman who was a leader of the literary and political circles of the early 19th century.
Born in Lyon, France Lyon, and known as Juliette, she was married at fifteen to
Jacques Récamier (d. 1830), a rich banker more than 30 years her senior. At the time, it was said that he was in fact her natural father who married her to make her his heir.
She gave her name to a famous kind of sofa called the récamier after her and her habit to lie in one. And I believe she really could carry it off. She was quite lovely to look at, and reclining in that way must have only added to her attractiveness. She once had a thing with Lucien Bonaparte, as suspicion goes. (Lucien was a younger brother of Joseph and Napoleon Bonaparte )
Juliette Récamier died in 1849 at the age of 71 and was buried in the Cimetiere de Montmartre in the Montmartre Quarter of Paris

above - just like my grandmothers

To have something like one of these placed in a sitting area of a bedroom or living room would add so much to a room. My grandmother had one on one side of her living room. Even if you were shooting for contemporary, it would be like an accessory. A painting or vintage poster. Now I know that people doing contemporary rooms often buy the vintage posters ( which are great ) and the reason they do that is to give the room some relief, a rest, a break from all the clean lines and plainness that can happen. It really is a piece of history, and remember that a unique appointment in a finished room is all you will ever need for an ice breaker, a conversation maker at a any gathering.

This sofa really has ' bones!'
Don't you think?

I SPY....an industrial maitre d' stand

If you are working on a restaurant design....

I found this fabulous piece.

What else could you use this item for???

Do you like it or are you OVER  ' industrial?.'

I think it is fabulous.

What do you think?

Trendy, industrial workstation or maitre d' stand. Great computer station too! Whatever you prefer, it's just fantastic. Ten drawers in the front. A really cool design of two drawers on the left side with two bronze accessory bars on both sides. The surface is a crackled dark masonite board. The unit is in good condition.
