Art Collector's Paradise

Candia Fisher is a serious art collector but then again, she learned from the best.  Her mother, Emily Fisher Landeau is a serious collector of  modern art as well as, a trustee of of the Whitney Museum of American Art.  Candia's duplex apartment was designed by Aman & Carson and highlights the fabulous art while remaining elegant yet comfortable.  I especially love how the light is reflected in all the lacquered walls and the light colors don't compete with the East River views.  The apartment was featured in the November 2009 issue of Elle Decor but I've found more photos take by Ricky Zehavi that give you a complete picture of this art collector's paradise.  Enjoy!

Country Chic


It's going to be over 80 degrees today in New York today and that makes it a great weekend to getaway.  A perfect place to do so would be the country house in Connecticut owned by designers Richard Lambertson and John Truex.  The showhouse room in my last post reflected more of their city style while this home is clearly channeling country chic.  It was featured in the October 2008 issue of Elle Decor and you can read about all the details online but the photos pretty much speak for themselves.  I especially love the library and the office.  More importantly, I wonder if they have room for one more this weekend!

Thank You Elle Decor!




The October 2010 issue of Elle Decor is one of their best ever and I'm not just saying that because I'm in it! I want to thank Elle Decor for including my quote about luxury at home in the issue. I am especially humbled to be included with Allegra Hicks, Schuyler Samperton, China Chow, Ralph Rucci, and John Oetgen!  Especially, because I'm sure all the rest of them are wondering who the heck I am! Thank you Elle Decor!

For Sale: Gilles Mendel's Duplex

If you have an extra $2,200,000 lying around and are in the market for a new apartment, you may want to check out Gilles Mendel's chic duplex.  The Pre-War two bedroom space is located on the Upper East Side near all the fabulous stores and luckily comes with walk in closets to store your purchases.  I'm not sure where the designer of J. Mendel is moving but I'm sure it's to a bigger space to house himself and his growing children.  It was published in the October 2007 issue of Elle Decor and as you can see from the photos, it was styled a little better there than it was in the real estate brochure. If you decide to buy it, maybe you can get him to throw in a dress.
