A Story of White...

The story of white begins on the porch of this

Myra Hoefer designed California home.
I love this creative display of hats. Start collecting!

Moose antlers, chocolate mohair, and fun artwork

create an ecelctic living room.

The owner tosses coins he collects during his

world travels into the fireplace. The bull's-eye

is by artist Michael Ives.

Oly's faux bois-table helps create the feeling

of a sleeping porch in the owner's bedroom.

This intimate space is much smaller than the

guest quarters upstairs.

Study or dine? That is the question.

My favorite room is this libray/dining room

with intersting details too many to count.

I also love this cozy seating area at one end of the kitchen.

A sculptural pitchfork lamp becomes the focal

point in the white sitting room.

Where to begin? The Patricia Edwards chairs

with backs covered in old army blankets? The

picnic-style dining table? The centerpiece of

vintage glove forms? Or the Ingo Maurer

chandelier made from love letters on

Japanese paper?
