bathroom stalker - park city restaurant

Posted by sew4tejhtr6ier Selasa, 03 September 2013 0 komentar
i appreciate good design no matter where i find it. but it seems that i find it a lot in bathrooms. (maybe i have bathrooms on the brain lately?)
my latest bathroom beauty is from talisker on main in park city, utah.
(a very amazing pace to eat, by the way!)



let's talk about that wallpaper!


 it gives a great graphic punch, but the blue and white scheme makes it feel like and fresh and light.


the bold floral art adds a touch of femininity to the space that is colorful and unexpected.



the classic marble vanity, gold + crystal sconce and classic black/white tile floor add to the fun mix!


the silver gilded/metal wrapped mirror is a bit of a surprise, and works well with everything else in the bath...such a feminine and cheery look!


this would be really easy to replicate on a budget:

sources:

mirror

vanity

floor tile

sconce

stencil

hope y'all had a great weekend!

south of the border

Posted by sew4tejhtr6ier Rabu, 07 November 2012 0 komentar
guess where i will be the rest of the week?
yep. thats right.
south of the border....
i am getting away for a girls weekend in sunny mexico. yeee-haw!
(a HUGE thank you to my sweet husband, who just may be the worlds greatest dad. 
not only does he coach almost all of my kids sports teams, he is the family safety "enthusiast" and is that dad that makes everyone laugh and feel at ease. he is taking off some time from work this week to be mr. mom so i can get away. oh, and on top of that, he has spent 40+ hours over the  last two weekends at our new house/lot doing manual labor. love that man!)

in addition to beautiful beaches, and tons of culture, mexico is also home to some pretty amazing design. take a peek inside the celeste teahouse, located in mexico city, mexico:



aren't you in love with the striped tiles?



another source of fantastic design is the mexico based husband/wife design team behind casamidy.
i have been in LOVE (deeply and madly) with everything that casamidy produces for YEARS now.
i wrote an extensive post on them a while ago, which you can read here, but here are a few of
their gorgeous items that i would love to sell my car to buy:




 (oh what i wouldn't give to have one of these hanging in my new house!)



 (i'll take 6 of these too!)

 (ok, and this too.)



you can see more here.

adios amigos.
be back soon!

last weekend (OLD news)

Posted by sew4tejhtr6ier Kamis, 18 Oktober 2012 0 komentar
i have a confession.
it was my birthday last weekend. AND it was a "big" one.
(yep. that's right, i finally turned 30. har! har! just kidding...y'all know i am a tad older than that....)
*i am still not quite sure how i feel about it, but suddenly every one
in my family is "teasingly" calling me OLD. i am 18 months older than my husband, so the fact
that i am the first to experience this rite of passage doesn't help. 
at ALL.
to celebrate, my sweet husband took the day off work, and got the kids off to school. he then brought me breakfast in bed when i woke up at 10:30! (my day could have ended there and i would have been happy.) we picked up the kids early from school, and went for a drive in the mountains towards park city. after some shopping, a little snack, and a wonderful massage, we headed for dinner at talisker on main, on main street in park city. it was a pretty spectacular day. here are a few snippets:
 it was a rainy, chilly day, and the mountain drive was so pretty.

 halfway though the drive, my kids had to go to the bathroom, so we found a little outhouse on the side of the road. my 10 year old daughter charlotte, did NOT like the way it smelled!

 our "snack" at red rock brewing company---goat cheese and roasted garlic bruscetta, and friend green tomatoes...cuz birthday calories don't count.

 awesome railing in an elevator on the way to the spa at the canyons resort.

 a little shopping at the factory outlets. 
i got a cardigan that i MAY have worn every day this week...


 james beard award winning food.

 great, cozy atmosphere.


once again, i find myself at the mercy of public restrooms. 
can't help myself, i gotta take some pictures.
isn't this bathroom cheery?

 
love the wallpaper!



 seeing these sconces made me want them in my new house. i think these are by circa lighting,
but they may be ralph lauren....

 i never tire of checkerboard floors.

it's official. 
i am 40.

by the way, have you seen trailers to this movie?

(it looks completely hilarious. and also a little bit naughty....)

where am i?

Posted by sew4tejhtr6ier Senin, 23 Januari 2012 0 komentar
can you figure out where i am?
look carefully at the pictures, and let me know when you figure it out:

a close up of the above wall covering.

hand scraped wood floors.



textured plexiglass panel separation.


wall tile.



 closeup of one of the three different countertops.

detail of regular height chair.

still having trouble?
let go inside the restrooms. maybe that will help...

hmmmm.
fireplace. complete with a cozy ottoman.



ceiling details....

bar stool.

chandelier.

still trying to figure it out?
how about a bigger hint....

du-------wha?
are you are shocked as i was?
(and yes, behind the etched golden arches on that glass is a water feature!)
can you believe the finishes in this joint??

i just HAD to post this!
hey, i know all the hoopla surrounding mcdonalds....i agree that most of their food is not very healthy, and that we, as amercians eat way too much it, BUT, as a designer, i was totally impressed with this new mcdonlads that opened near my home. honestly, when my family and i first walked in, i felt like i was in an upscale cafe. i really appreciate all of those little and not so little details and layers that go into making a space feel cozy and interesting...and the design team behind these new restaurants did a great job accomplishing that!

what did you think?
did you figure it out? and if so, when?
have you been in similar mcdonalds?
do you like that the interiors of some fast food restaurants have been "super sized"?
does if effect how many times you will or will not eat there?
let me know...i am so interested in this!
