We're loving the wall of aged mirror - a great solution for adding the illusion of space to a small home. You can read the article and see many more pictures at California Home+Design Magazine.

A disparate assembly of things holds together beautifully in these spaces. Taken individually, not evey item is precious, but there is a happy dialog resulting from everthing together. I would love to know how to find that bold paisley print on the living room chair!

I love that sunburst mirror. (Is it really an elipse, or is that just the camera angle???)

I've got to say, that bathroom doesn't do it for me.

Agreed, the library nook is amazing. The place isn't my style, but it's clear that this is a talented designer with creative clients.
