I honestly couldn’t pick only one image among these two kitchens. I mean, can you? And that’s because the white pottery, the thick white table (top picture) and the persian rugs, they were all too beautiful to leave one out. Also Because the more storage inspiration the better. right…?

It’s all in the details! It’s the first thought that came to my mind when I first saw this home. I’m a constant admirer of anything related to interior architecture. Only a few things inspire me more than Architecture itself. And, God, this house is certainly one with exquisite architectural details that make these rooms shine by themselves, from the ornate coffered ceilings, clean boiseries and Greek key moldings to dark wood floors. Of course its owner, the couturier Howard Green is no novice when it comes to style. He knew how to pair this splendid home with equally sculptural pieces and show-stopping art. If this home appears to you like a French home, it is, because Paris is Howard Green’s favorite city. No wonder!!!

When you hear that Diane von Furstenberg is coming out with a tabletop collection you can’t expect anything less than fabulous (take her home pictures below for instance). Like everything else Diane Furstenberg designes her tabletop is as bold, beautiful, unique and out of the extraordinary pieces. Because there is no matching collection you can combine them at your own taste. “Pieces that combine effortlessly with a woman’s own finds” O Magazine. The tableware will be available soon at DVF website.
