George Bevan & Associates and a wine cellar to lust after



Bevan & Associates continue to rock. Check out their recent work....

LEATHER AND LACE NAUGHTY AND NICE



We are so enthused about these new products.Look for them to take center stage in 2010 in a spectacular Master Suite designed by H2.
Unlike the sandblasting that had been done to completed slabs, these embossed patterns are produced by Caesarstone and are guaranteed for life. Kudos to Caesarstone for listening and wow are these new patterns beautiful or what?

GOOD THINGS COME IN TWO'S




Talented Interior Designer Kathy Bloodworth is also a skilled photographer.
Kathy studied fine art photography long before she began the practice of interior design. Kathy has always been fascinated by the play of light and shadow, "how these elements enhance and alter silhouette, how the juxtaposition of shape and texture create a visual image. These elements inform the creation of interior space, allowing movement from two dimensions into three. And in turn, that compositional formality leads to new discovery in the perception of that which seems random and decomposed."

Might be worth a stop by to see. Word has it that the organizer might have some personal interest in the shows success... like owning 4 of the units!
The latest showcase house to take to the sky is Icons of Design at San Francisco’s Millennium Tower, where 29 designers took over the 52nd floor of the recently completed luxury condo project and created amazing rooms that more than stand up to the breathtaking views.

DONNA SEAGER ART GALLERY SAN RAFAEL



Kay Bradner : Tender Observations
November 1 - December 14, 2009

Kay Bradner has a reverence for detail. She records faithfully what she sees but is able to incorporate abstract elements that punctuate and heighten the experience. Her skills as a painter and printmaker are considerable, but that and her commitment to fidelity are not enough to explain the particular quality of her work. She is like a musician who not only has the ability to hit every note, but the virtuosity that allows the listener to be transported by it.
