Andi's Favorite Girl

...

My daughter loves Natalie Portman...

so....

here is a peek into her apartment.

What I really want 

is your opinion on this living room!!!

The kitchen is nice.....

I haven't researched this at all...

but,

do you think she did her own interior design  ?

Or

had help from a professional ?

{ like maybe her mom's best friend's friend who is a decorator ?}

ummmmmm?????

okay, I will be leaving now.

Are you coming too?

Seriously....

what do you think?

You probably love it,

 and it's just me.

But.... I have to know.....!!!!

Should I take a few cues from this for my new line up in my showroom?

@$%$$#@@YYY??!!

Am I that out of touch?

If You Are On The North Shore In Chicago...

In Chicago.....
Christopher Guy has opened a new showroom.
Hollywood Classic Glamour, I love it.
And if you are a designer,
I think you NEED to go.

It is Christopher Guy's second showroom in the U.S.

The other is in Beverly Hills.

I say "Why not on Worth Avenue in Palm Beach?"

Are you listening Mr. Christopher Guy?

Palm Beach would just LOVE your line.

Palm Beach is glamorous.

 No? 

I would be more than happy to run the showroom and bring in countless design jobs.

This is pure genius.

A truly elegant planter.

It is so me.

I could use this in every job I do.

Am I right?

Elegant?

Okay....take a moment to find your drool buckets and strap them on for sofa number 60-0002.

You know how I feel about armless sofas.

This one is fabulous.

And the fabric combinations could be endless if you needed them to be.

But....why?

The sofa speaks.

Here is another teaser from Christopher Guy

 that I have below.

A Christopher Guy cocktail table.

He has the largest variety of screens I have seen from one company.

You can view Christopher Guy's Showroom Product Line HERE. 

Go, go now and check out his screens and everything else.

What do you think?

Is this Glamour or What??

What Is Your Issue With A Two Cushion Sofa?

(GOOD)

Clients often say , "What will I do when if I have several guest?", "I need each person to have their own cushion... nobody wants to sit on the crack" "So I need 3 cushions, one for each person.

I say " but you sit on a crack everyday, and it doesn't seem to be an issue!"

The client after a moment, laughs. But , it's true.

BTW

Did you know that 3 cushion sofa's were created to utilize all the scap and wasted fabrics.

The bigger the seat cushions, the larger the piece of fabric that is needed.

(BETTER)

When you have many guests (for most working people it is not all that frequent, about 3 holidays a year) they most often do not want to be the person squeezed in the middle anyway. I don't.

This sofa to me looks more elegant....you will never find a cheapo sofa with a bench seat cushion as seen in the last image in this post.

(BEST)
To me this is the most formal look.

Remember, the seat cushion fabric on the top of the cushion may not always stay tight and smooth as the day your sofa was delivered.

Just know, that's all right. Really.

It may have down in the cushion, or be very soft with very special foams...and that's good. That's what it ' says.'

I am soft, I am comfy, come and get cozy on me, read a book, fall asleep...have a dream.

This cushion if it isn't looking really smooth and tight across the top is probably an upgrade. Often a soft down insert in a sofa seat cushion is an upgrade. But not always, there are several companies that have seat cushions that are just as comfy as a down cushion. These have been developed because so many people request 'NO DOWN' because of allergies.

Which sofa seat style do you prefer?? Tell me.

3 cushion, 2 cushion, or 1 cushion (bench seat) ?

PS I am back in training today.

I will be done on Friday this week.

Tufting love

I don't know what it is but I currently adore the tufted chairs and sofas. In a natural linen or a soft blue- even leather makes me want them!! They are out there in plenty of styles and sizes- so you can find one that is just perfect for you. This style is traditionally called Chesterfield with it's high arms and tufting. There are a few different takes on these pieces here and they are all just perfect. Tufted pieces work with everything and are being used more and more in transitional design these days.
