jonathan adler
for some reason i think i hit a jonathan adler peak last year and haven't been as into the adler look for a while. but after seeing ms. lena corwin's house in glamour (so, so cool) i'm starting to enjoy mr. adler's signature works used strategically throughout the house. i think i just burned out on all those vases and seeing every television show set, magazine house and friends' homes full of them arranged the same way. they're clearly popular for a reason (they're quite lovely), but i think i just needed a little break. but i'm warming myself back up with these gorgeous couches (ranging from appx $2k to $3k) and my favorite lamp- the giraffe lamp, $375 (which lena has in her home). they're wonderful pieces that blend well into a number of existing looks. you can check out mr. adler's beautifully updated site right here and shop his newest pieces right here as well. enjoy!

i completely agree with you. a few years ago, i received some of the vases for christmas as well as a lamp. the lamps i still lov, but the vases i have to put in a place i don't see very often. but the new furniture and odds & ends are really feeling good to me. too bad i can't afford the large pieces for now...but love the bit of glamour that JA brings...!
i have mixed feelings about JA too... but i do love so many of his products and i really agree with his general design philosophy. i have day-dreams about the palm springs hotel that he designed/decorated! if i were to strike it rich i'd head straight there on vacation.
and i couldn’t love my giraffe lamp more…
Make this a trio :-). I have a tray (which I've now seen knocked off at Target), a vase and a pillow. All are beautiful but it does have that sense of being almost a fad? There's one of his new couches I want so badly though. I did see a knock off of that very couch at Crate & Barrel that I've been contemplating. Grace, have you looked at their website yet? They have some lovely designs right now.
Hi d*s.
Love your site. Was Lena's house in the last issue? If not, do you know which month? I really enjoy her blog and her taste.
Thanks!
yes! she's in the march issue i believe with sarah jessica parker on the cover. her home is too, too cute.
d*s :)
Anyone know where that lamp on her teeny, tiny bedside table is from? Short, squat, shade as wide as the base. I've seen it a *billion* times! Never thought much of it, but after seeing it 'in situ' I think it's adorable--only, now I can't remember where I've seen it...
