Design-i: Eva Hild

I have such a passion for matte white ceramics. There is something so pure and honest about the texture and reflection of light and resulting shadows. 

Classical forms appear more established and modern undulations take on an otherworldly hauntedness. 

To stand in the presence of an Eva Hild sculpture you are drawn into the curves, shadows, reflections, and depth of the piece. It is quite captivating.

Interiors require space and light. 

A successful interior requires the manipulation of this light and space- allowing for the eye to take flight throughout the space resting on brief pauses of color, texture, and light.

Imagine for a moment- a room- properly poised with furnishings and fabrics. Classically tuned or Modernly curated- it makes no difference. Now place an Eva Hild on a Deco pedestal or a parchment console. Doesn't it just feel like home.

Embroidery obsessions

Miguel Cisterna has quite the eye- and hand for that matter. Embroidery is nothing new, an ancient art- and you may know of him already but it's the sheer ability and mastery of his craft that really gets your heart pumping.

His mix of materials both classic and courant is refreshing and quite amazing at times. The honest simplicity of materials delights when your eye focuses on a glimmer hidden within the folds and stitches.

Interior Design is all about color, texture, pattern, and ultimately- the mix. How you put it together is what creates style. If you can do it with a smile and a glimmer in your eye- well, then; that's chic!

I've seen glimmering beetles, but grasshoppers? on stalks of corn, no less?! Truly the imagination is running wild- and so should yours! It may not be the subject matter you've been searching for but truly, is it no less a conversation piece? Can you not be inspired-


Take design into your own hands, go forth unafraid and be inspired- and if it should happen to be the case- you could always custom order something. Perhaps a pillow...
