The Cultivated Life
For months I had schemed to get a shelter magazine to profile my apartment, but the morning they finally came was, unfortunately, the day after a rather successful dinner party.I have loved the work of the French artist Jean-Philippe Delhomme since I first saw his advertisements for Barneys and now I am in love with his new book The Cultivated Life! It is witty compilation of "satiric musings" on artistic, literary and decorating dramas and the first published in English! C'est magnifique!
We love entertaining in our dressing room. It's a real conversation piece...even our art world friends are delighted!
Just think of this as the Eames chair of the eighteenth century!
In my apartment a definite aesthetic discipline reigns; the unwritten rules of which don't prevent, unfortunately, a certain common type from loitering here. 
Of course it's gorgeous! But I know there's a compulsive minimalist inside of me that could burst out any minute. 
The more I progress in the field of design, the more I realize how little I actually know - it's a continual lesson in humility!
