Books: Patina Style by Steve and Brooke Giannetti

August 11, 2011


I'll keep it short.

My voice simply cannot compete with
the power of such brilliant spaces
designed by Patina Style authorities,
Brooke & Steve Giannetti.


The Giannettis own
Giannetti Home
(architecture, interior, and landscape design),
and Brooke is the author of the divine
Velvet and Linen blog.


The Giannettis encourage 'lived in' design.
They say go ahead and use beautiful
materials which change and
develop patina over time.


In fact,
they wrote the book
on
(Gibbs Smith).

Their book is stunning
in all its gorgeous-ocity
and should be in the possession
of all decor freaks, demons, and junkies.

I leave you with my
favorite Giannetti kitchen!

Peace to you right where you are.

    Loved your idea of asking my kids for a massage! How didn't think about something like that before?

    I'll try to relax, but I need to work a bit too... What about you? Many plans for the weekend?


    I really admire Brooke and Steve's work. They're so talented and this book is rocking, huh?

    That's also my fav. kitchen designed by them.

    Have a great weekend!

    I am LAUGHING
    to myself as just
    30 minutes ago I
    tore out two of the
    pics that you are
    featuring from my
    mom's copy of Food
    and Wine {shhhh!}
    which featured this
    very talented couple
    and their new book!
    Seriously!!!
    LOVE that YOU love
    them, too....

    i love so many of the philosophies expressed in the Giannetti's book, yet even if they said nothing at all, the eye candy alone would satisfy...

    Oh my good god that is a beautiful kitchen.

    Nuff said I think.

    No wonder you love it, it's lush! So elegant, so dreamy...sigh.

    Those pendant lights look very similar to the ones we recently installed in our kitchen re-do so I'm feeling REALLY GOOD right now!
