Did you see my post featuring Michael Del Piero's
lovely work in Milieu and elsewhere?
Well, today promises to be extra special since I'll be seeing
her rustic + refined work in person
at Chicago's DreamHome 2016
(open now until Dec. 4th).
while at the MART
for
Design Chicago 2016.
Design Chicago is a 2-day luxury design event
where oodles (a technical term)
of Trade professionals gather
for educational opportunities,
showroom events, networking,
and I hope...cake.
Because...well...
cake.
I'm bringing along my partner in crime, and together
the OVER THE HILL OLSEN TWINS--
who too seldom are recognized as
the respected journalists we are--
shall grace the Mart's halls,
sipping,
swaying,
and
snapping
the good, the true, and the beautiful
as your personal paparazzi
because you make blogging fun.
Your personal paparazzi's selfie last weekend at midnight for.no.good. reason.
Plus. Interior design and nesting?
They still thrill us and go together
like an Olsen and...
a good smoke.
It was 2008, when everyone dressed alike, pod-personed their faces,
and photoshopped their teeth scary white, oui?
Oy.

Janet Shiff and Lynn Boutross
of Blutter Shiff Designs
were going for contemporary with edge
for the foyer at the DreamHome,
and Ashley best be prepared
for Mary Kate's inevitable
heart failure when she sees this
weathered metals II wallcovering
from Maya Romanoff!
The area rug from Stark Carpet, fabulous sculptural elements,
and all the quiet tones feel utterly calm
in a space welcoming one home from a long stressful day
of getting your blonde on, saying NO to Fuller House,
attending fashion week and fan celebrity fan cruises, and...
making decisions.
Blutter Shiff Designs
I would gladly bake you petit-fours in the kitchens
above and below designed gorgeously by Blutter Shiff.
Notice they took the stone straight up the backsplash
which for me...well, for me it's eye cake.
Care to hear how Ms. Del Piero conceived the design
of the DreamHome's bedroom?
See you in a couple of hours, Chicago.
Peace to you right where you are.
p.s.
okay, mom.
i'm going to bed.
p.s.s.
this post was inspired
by my love for
my sister...
she is an exceptional
human being.
