Who says print is dead?

I know as a blogger and web designer it's blasphemous for me to say this, but sometimes I just want it on paper - a magazine or a book to get cozier with. This is why I still subscribe to several of my favorite magazines, and still get excited to see them in my mailbox. Here are a few of my favorite pages scanned from more recent issues of Domino. Enjoy!

I love how these books are displayed on the shelves, really gives the room an antiquated look.


The two above images are from a spread of the same room. Though I usually like cleaner spaces, I sort of like the stacks of books and other objects in the room. The giant collection of Polaroids is creative too.


The two images above are of the same room, which I really love. It's feminine but not too girly.

Look at this great interior design resource and store!



I found a really unique website this week that would be a great place for anyone on the hunt for antique and vintage furniture, called 1stdibs. I imagine some of you already know about it. It's a great place to stay abreast of what's going on in the field, as they feature designers, recommended books, and dealers.

Just a sample at some of the great selection you can find - registration was very fast and easy






Take a peak at recommended books and designer profiles -

Designer Portfolios

Some great images I've collected from a few interior design portfolios. I hope you like some of them!

Briger and Briger

I adore this bedroom, the bed is gorgeous, and I really like the quaint rug on the floor by the bed.

Books, an open pantry, baskets, a library ladder - what else could I want?




I've never seen a kitchen layout like this one, I wonder how well it works





I love this bedroom. It's so diverse, and the stone floors and carpet make it feel like it's in a temple.

Beautiful designer portfolios

So every now and then I go on a hunt for some interior designers unbeknownst to me for some fresh inspiration, and to stay abreast of what's going on in the interior designosphere (yes I made that up). Here are three that I really liked, and thought you might too.

Anthony Todd
Anthony Todd also has a boutique in Greenwich Village.


...that's a pretty amazing color on the wall








I really love these tray tables by the bed...anybody know where they're from?



Antonia Hutt


I love the art in this room



...wondering if that swinging chair is actually comfy





Anne Coyle


...a great example of designing with books. I'm going to have to try this sometime.
