Tom Dixon NewsletterJust received a Tom Dixon newsletter and I was pleased to find out that there are great new pieces from the line now available in the US.  I absolutely love the clean, industrial look – not too stark modern, not traditional.  For more information on their products check out their website.

Tom Dixon Upholstery – Love the Club Sofa

Tom Dixon Club Sofa

I’ve been working on decorating my new loft apartment so I have been out and about to see what’s new out there in the decorating world.  I was please to find out that the Tom Dixon upholstery furniture is now available through George Smith, and I absolutely love the Club Sofa.  By the way, George Smith is the creme de la creme in the upholstery world.

The  great thing with ordering through George Smith is you can order your sofa COM.  For those of you who don’t know – COM means “Customer’s Own Material” – you can pick any fabric you like for your upholstery piece.  They also carry a wide range of beautiful fabrics you can choose from.

I decided to go with a Holly Hunt’s Peace of Mind Linen in Cool Breeze.  I can’t wait!

All of Tom Dixon’s upholstery pieces can be ordered through George Smith.  Here a a few pics of what they offer:

Hmmm.  Now, I need some great pillows…  Stay tuned!

Here are links to the Club Sofa and to Tom Dixon by George Smith’s Website:

Before and After – Lamp Makeover

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009
Lamp - After

Lamp - After

I’ve been working on decorating a girl’s room for a client.  One of the last items on our list was to find a stylish lamp for her room.  After scouring many of the various lighting companies out there and coming up with nothing, I decided to look into my treasure closet of vintage finds – and there it was – a white ceramic pineapple lamp I had pick up from an Antique Dealer in Buenos Aires.  Modern and stylish, my client and I decided it would be perfect – but the black lampshade had to go….

After scouring through a few wallpaper sources, we found a great Cole and Son’s David Hicks wallpaper – and decided it was the way to go.  I ordered the wallpaper and took it to a custom lampshade workroom.  We decided to do an oversized shade- to give it a little more height and show off more of the wonderful wallpaper we selected…  and VOILA! A really hip wonderful lamp to accent a very adorable little girls’ room.
