Last night I was at John Morgan’s talking about color and design with him and Monica. Doing an interior make over starting Monday. The idea is to get it to look less like a bachelor pad. It needs to be made more cohesive, like there’s a vision that is followed through on. A place that’s hip, stylish and where people want to live out some good times. –a glossy red ceiling rising from a velvet red column/supporting wall in the kitchen, and two warm crimson and blue black perimeter walls in the open area leading up to the loft, is what we’re starting a mufti-phased project with. This project is going to be evolutionary. Where one growth causes another growth. With strong statements it’s not as easy to predict how each element will impact a space, so we’ll wait and see before committing to the next statements. –in the end it’s going to be a cool space to live in and visit!

Monica made some wicked cookies, the recipe for which she posted Nov. 13th.

Before getting there I stopped in at the opening party of the very slick “Raw Potential” Bark Collective exhibit at 44 water street. Impressed by the geometric origami light form by Studer and Khan Lee, the log and resin cube table by Mark Brady, the Haida Manga by Michael Yahgulanaas, and the bar by whoever built the bar (I really liked your bar bar designer!). –show closes December 14th.
