We’re so thrilled to be featured in the Fall 2015 issue of New England Home Magazine and share with you “What We’re Looking At” this season…

Falling for Fall Foliage

Falling for Fall Foliage

Autumn is a beautiful time of year in New England, and we’re so lucky to live in an area filled with walking trails and scenic parks.  Mother Nature graces us with fabulous fall foliage, and there’s no better place to see the range of reds, oranges, and yellows than in our own Connecticut backyard.

The Twins in Belgium

The Twins in Belgium

During more than a decade spent in the Belgian countryside, our weekend outings always included a Sunday visit to the outdoor market.  There, we chose from a vast array of seasonal fruits and vegetables, meats, cheeses, and breads to create a family dinner worthy of Julia Child, served at a table decorated with fresh flowers.

Fall Table

Fall Table

Our new Modern Barn collection this fall was inspired by the increasingly popular “farm to table” movement and no one does this better than Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s restaurant, The Inn at Pound Ridge.  The restaurant serves locally sourced ingredients in a modern barn setting, capturing everything we envisioned for these designs.

Mighty

Pronunciation: /ˈmīdē/

Possessing great and impressive power or strength…  After a gray and rainy weekend, a pop of purple and pink can really brighten one’s day.  After all, “color is a power which directly influences the soul” (according to painter Wassily Kandinsky!)

Inspirations

Simply Stylish in Southport

Zebra Pizzazz

Rowayton-based interior designer Lynn Morgan‘s style can be summed up in just a couple of words: casually elegant, colorful and clean, livable with a “beachy sense of happiness.”

Living in Symmetry

Aqua and Gold Dining Room

Those last words were penned by none other than New England Home‘s Homes Editor Stacy Kunstel in a recent article in the magazine’s Fall 2011 Connecticut edition.

Beautiful Breakfast Nook

She and photographer Laura Moss spent a day shooting Lynn’s latest project in Southport, CT and the result is beautiful.  We love everything about this home – from the modern touches made by contemporary art and animal prints to the addition of nautical themes like  bold stripes in the kids’ playroom and splashes of turquoise throughout the house.

Family Room Fun

Wake Up, Stacy!

By the looks of this last image, Stacy must really take her work seriously…  Laura snapped the picture after a long day of shooting and it ended up in the magazine’s blog!

With an inch of new snow falling this week (which thankfully melted within a day), we’re counting the days until our gardens and homes are full of blooms.

Drinks on the Terrace

These pictures of Wendy Valliere’s lovely home in Vermont (snapped by fabulous photographer, Michael Partenio) had us dreaming of warmer weather and evenings on the porch.

The article is a must read, especially since it was penned by none other than Stacy Kunstel, uber-stylist and editor and Michael’s love.  In their spare time, this creative couple designs and hand-makes the most wonderful home accessories under the name Dunes & Duchess (they’re also the best NY Gift Fair neighbors we could ask for!)
