I'm back from the big runway show and I can't thank Brizo enough for getting me to another one of these storied events. This is two Fashion Weeks in six months now. If I keep this up I won't able to say that I don't know anything a fashion anymore.
I'm getting ready to head out to the after show party and to extend my VIP fantasy for just a few more hours. This has been the most enjoyable conference I've ever attended and kudos to Brizo for assembling a room full of design bloggers I've always wanted to meet.
In case you hadn't heard, it snowed in New York yesterday.
In case you were wondering, the best day to fly to New York is the day after a blizzard. I cannot remember an easier, hassle-free trip in my life. Seriously, the airports were deserted and everything went off without a hitch.
So now it's off to dinner with my hosts from Brizo and MS&L Worldwide. Boy is it nice to be back in New York.
I'm leaving for New York here shortly. I'll be posting but off my usual schedule while I'm on the road. In the meantime, here's a great video that explains in a round about way why kitchen designers, faucet designers and for that matter appliance designers and flooring designers go to runway shows at Fashion Week.
This apartment's gorgeous. Everything about it looks so comfortable and warm.
Here's what the website where I found it had to say.
Дизайнер и архитектор Катерина Лашманова является выпускницей МАРХИ. В 2005 году Катерина с отличием закончила школу дизайна интерьеров «Детали», а затем прошла стажировку в лондонской школе дизайна KLC. В данный момент успешно работает в созданном совместно с Инной Завьяловой бюро L&Z Design Bureau.
Эта квартира общей площадью 120 квадратных метров расположена в Москве, на Ходынке. Стиль этого интерьера можно отнести к современной классике. Тон интерьеру задает большое количество лепнины, а также классическая массивная мебель, которая создает ощущение спокойной уверенности и уюта. Несмотря на классический настрой, обстановка получилась вполне современная и в духе времени.
That apartment's in the Khodynka section of Moscow, and it's not at all what I think of when I hear the phrase "Moscow apartment." I admit it, I'm a product of the cold war and my ideas about Russian lives and Russian apartments were formed by TV like this.
I'm being followed on Twitter by a Russian design blog called Decormag. Decormag tweets in Russian, A language I can neither read nor speak. I've let Google Translate have a turn or two at helping me make sense of the editorial content of Decormag, but I kind of like not being able to read the posts. It's interesting to look at Decormag's top-notch photography and rely on my imagination to make up the story.
So thank you Decormag for following me and broadening my horizons. And thank you Twitter for shrinking the world just little bit more.
