stuff

basically this is just a post about pictures i took with my i phone..

lucky you.

 

cat:

(my name is nicolas i am soft and nice and i smell good)

 


hiding from bandits.

 

 

chinese-ish.

the color in person had a lot of orange in it and i liked it a lot.

but it was trump (expensive). 

 

hardware up close:

searching craigslist for something i can paint this color. 

and then sell to you.

 

 

i live right by the airport.

 

 

 

working it out

my client wanted her kitchen eating area re-decorated.

new table, new chairs, new console, new rug..

nothing major, just zshushing.

however, the walls were to remain greige, and the goal was to work with the existing chandelier.

a rusty, iron chandelier with wooden beads.

the come to jesus meeting was for cozy, modern and glam.

 

most of you would agree that a rusty iron chandelier and greige walls don't equal cozy, modern, or glam.

 

so here's what i figured..

classic chandelier?

modern AND classic table.

then blur it all up with modern lines on classic chairs.

keep everything monochromatic for modern and cozy purposes..

add a sexy, gold metallic cowhide and you have a little cozy, a little modern and a little glam.

 

over to the console side of the situation..

i was really pushing for this:

in fact i was a little high on it..

super GLAM!

 

but the client talked me down a little..

saying that she felt it was a little too fancypants for her cozy kitchen nook..

could we see the console with different lamps?

 

i assured her that it was better to go full throttle and then pull back than the other way around..

(pulled that one out of my ass i did- but it's essentially true)

 

so i showed her this:

she loves it!

but..

she wants to see maybe a parsons style conosle in place of the mirrored chevron buffet.

oh but i cried a little.

i want her to have this magic piece of furniture.

i said, but a parsons console will offer no storage!

she said she truly didn't need storage, just a place to drop her keys and shit.

 

so..

in comes the black, lacquered grasscloth console:

and ultimately her favorite.

 

everyone wins!

 

here's a look at all the elements together:

 

and that's how you work shit out.

 

 

peace out billy bob!

 

shit i don't hate on a monday

 

this scorpian lamp.

 

 

luxury that doesn't use a heavy hand.

 

 

albert hadley's brain.

 

 

the fact that i never seem to tire of this room.

 

 

duh.

 

mirrored walls.

 

head to toe orchid denim against a clay pink wall. 

 

black patent leather walls.

 

 

fuck off forever.

 

 

speaking of diarrhea'ing on your legs....and princess food..

 i wonder how many pairs of undwear she went though this morning..

but it's all DVR'd so i will sit down in a bit once fiona is off to school and fast forward through all the boring shit.....dress....boring shit.....vows/boring shit.....wave to her people....boring shit...end. 

 

so..

in honor of a reg granola type girl becomming a princess lets 

 start the day right with some delicious, delicious nutvomit..
