M.I.A.

I can't believe it's been over 2 months since I last posted! My blog has definitely been at the bottom of my list of priorities, as the last two months have been absolutely crazy!

In that time I've moved apartments, started a new job, and begun classes at Harrington College of Design here in Chicago to receive my Masters of Arts in Interior Design... needless to say it's been a hectic but exciting time in my life!

I've decided to pursue my dream career in interior design, starting with the education. The Masters program at Harrington is 2 years of intensive work, but I've already learned so much and I'm confident that I made the right choice in going back to school.

My goal is to use this blog as a place to document my work as well as the work of others who inspire and motivate me. I hope you'll enjoy!

Living Like a Supermodel

I absolutely LOVE seeing the spaces other people (particularly famous ones) live in, and I'm particularly loving the series Lauren Santo Domingo is doing for Vogue, "APT with LSD." In this series, she gives us glimpses into the homes of famous models, so far including Coco Rocha, Amanda Brooks, and most recently, Jessica Stam.

Below are some of the pics of Jessica's Manhattan pad. I'm especially obsessed with the hand-carved Moroccan sliding doors; I mean, could you ask for anything more unique and unexpected in an NYC apartment? Reminds me of the Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain... Stunning.
