Just recently opened, the Nomad Hotel, featuring 168 rooms of Jacques Garcia interior design, has quickly caught the attention of designers and aesthetes who travel to the big city regularly. And there are many good reasons why: an incredible ivy-enveloped atrium, a massive two-story plush library, clean white minimal & classy bedrooms, antique lighting in every room, dark robust wood accents throughout, and a sitting room with a roaring marble fireplace to boot. Check in and and never check out. We may all be nomads at heart, but we think think this hotel is here to stay. Photographs courtesy of Better Shelter.
This recent posting by Remodelista chronicles the interior styling of a unique Victorian home located in Australia and owned by make-up artist Debra Cronin. Peeling walls, aging flea market finds, tarnished silver candlesticks, mismatched chairs, and very unique uses of the colors grey & black all lend a hand to create a dense dreamy atmosphere. Well done! All photographs by Debra Cronin.
With a menu that simply, yet proudly describes farm-style entrees such as 'Roulade of Rabbit with celery root, apples, bacon, chantrelles' and 'Slow Cooked Heritage Pork, braised cabbage, and smoked garlic jus,' Freeman's Restaurant aesthetically looks just as delicious as it sounds. Classic bent wood chairs pair with flannel upholstered benches. Old frames, black & white photographs, antlers, lit fireplaces, and shadow boxes sporting stuff game, all create an atmosphere more similar to a 1940's lodge than a NYC restaurant. Freeman's is highly recommend and we absolutely suggest, without hesitation, dining there! Photographs courtesy of Elle Decor & Freeman's Restaurant.
