Desperately Seeking…
…the November issue of the Australian shelter magazine, Real Living. There’s a feature on my apartment in this new issue and I’m dying to see it. So far, I haven’t been able to round one up at any of the usual international magazine shops in San Francisco. If anyone has one and might do a few scans and send them my way, I would be forever grateful! Also, just for fun, a photograph of my old dining room with the Doksta table is featured on page 52 (on the back of their Sticker page) in Domino this month. Thanks so much to both Real Living and Domino for featuring my apartment. I couldn’t more happy and excited about it! It’s my first time ever in a glossy!
Cheers to Grace!
Beginning Monday, October 1st, Design*Sponge (this new link designspongeonline.comwill work as of Monday) will have a whole new look. Grace has outdone herself, revamping
the site with new features and a new look. It’s hard to imagine d*s getting any better – but
I’m really excited to see Grace’s excellent eye at work! She’s also going to share one of her
infamous sneak peeks of her own New York home with us, which I can’t wait to see!
Bon chance Grace!
