El Cerrito


Welcome to El Cerrito (translates to 'The Fifth Little Hill') and was designed by Italian architect Gio Ponti, definitely one of those classics of the modernist movement any fan of modern design should get to know. The home was originally built for the Planchart family and is also known as Villa Planchart. It sits on a hilltop in El Cerrito in Caracas, Venezuela. Though the house was completed in 1956, i can't image it will ever be out of syle!



There was no forgetting the ceiling in this home, I love the selection of colors pale blue with yellow and white stripes. 


Check the stair detail so clean and seamless, but incredibly functional, you could swiffer right down those stairs! 




thank you apartment therapy for digging this classic up!

Weekend Flip


BEFORE


AFTER

This weekend my new accomplice and neighbor Julie and I conquered a cute mid-century desk. As we took the drawers out and began to clean and prepare for hours of sanding. We found some hidden treasures that maybe the previous or first owner had lost: a beaded necklace, tax returned from 1977 and letter from her attorney and this book The N
egro in The Civil War printed in 1938: 



Flipping through the pages of the book I found this photograph inside.

Los Angeles Designer Yard sale

Here it is, a dream come true! 
I do love myself a good yard sale or swap meet, but how many do you  need to visit and rummage through before you find something good? Now imagine furniture, light fixtures, pillows, and textiles all selected by some of the best interior designers in L.A. Pure, absolute jack pot, and better yet they will be there selling it all so a great opportunity to mingle and chat with your favorite designers. Saturday, August 8th <>

Ink Calender Oscar Diaz

This is great! 

An ink calender made of paper and calculated to accurately count the days in the month, the ink takes a full day to absorb into the paper number then continues, if this isn't the coolest installation of a time tracker I don't know what is!
