MODERN V. TRADITIONAL KITCHEN – THIS OR THAT

May 12, 2014
  • Share

Two kitchens…two very different looks.  One is super modern…the other pulls from traditional influences in its design.  Which do you like best on this Monday?

Pick your fave!

Happy Monday!

P.S.  Had a great Mother’s Day with my mom and sis.  We went to the Soho House for brunch – I am a member there..  Lots of celebrities were there doing the same with their families — celebrating moms!  My sister kept whispering loudly every time she saw someone famous…my mom was happily clueless as to who any of the stars were.

P.P.S. TE is in China for work.  Yes China for 4 days!  Last time he went there…he went for one meeting.  It took him 15 hours to get there, he went to the meeting and got back on the plane.  This time he has a longer stay!  Was up late last night texting with him…am a bit tired today!

P.P.P.P.S.  Happy day everyone.

    I like the first kitchen. I am just loving the open shelving concept. What do all of you think? Trendy? Or, sticking around for awhile? Of course, due to my lack of imagination, I also happen to own all-white dishes, good for uniform display.

    No contest, I’m a traditional or transitional style all the way. Definitely the second one. I’m not an open shelving fan unless you have super duper OCD tendencies, only then does everything look nice and neat.

It is warmer here now, but these were the looks I It is warmer here now, but these were the looks I reached for in Paris when the days were still cold. ❄️
I remember building each outfit around a coat or a scarf, with comfortable shoes that could take me anywhere, knowing I would be out for hours just walking.
Nothing overthought, just pieces that felt right for the pace of the day.
What would be your OOTD for a cold day in Paris?
If you want to shop these looks, comment SHOP and I will send you the link.

It’s the depth of velvet that changes a space. A l It’s the depth of velvet that changes a space.
A little softness, a little sheen, and suddenly the room feels lived in and elevated.
Would you bring velvet into your home?

It started with an invitation. I met @hugobesnier_ It started with an invitation. I met @hugobesnier_ , founder and designer of luxury furniture brand @hartisparis_ at a small gathering in the 7ème, near the Musée d’Orsay. I was there with my new friends, Scarlette and Sarah.
The apartment itself was incredible! Tall ceilings, terrazzo floors, right along the Seine, but what really stood out was the furniture.
Turns out, it was Hugo's exquisite work.
The pieces are designed around everyday gestures: sitting, leaning, resting, but interpreted in a way that feels elevated and intentional. There’s a balance of structure and softness, where architectural lines meet more organic textures and forms.
He invited me back the next day to see everything more clearly, outside of the party setting, and it completely changed how I experienced it. The pieces feel intentional and refined, with a strong focus on material and form.
Sharing a closer look at his work here.
My Paris dream life keeps happening again and again!

Spaces where the bones do all the talking. Vaulte Spaces where the bones do all the talking.
Vaulted ceilings, warm wood, and light pouring in. Everything feels grounded, layered, and quietly inviting.
What detail stands out to you first? 🤎
