STEVE JOBS ~ 1955-2011

2011-10-19T05:07:00.000-07:00

Since Apple will be honoring the life of Steve Jobs on Wednesday, I thought I would add a few thoughts of my own. I know that my life is much easier and better because of this genius of a man. Jobs changed the way we learn, teach, work, and play.

Around my house, you can't sit down without sharing space with an Apple device. Our Macbook Pro, iPad, iPhone and iPod are valuable to us in our careers and education. We had to make some choices and forego other luxuries in order to own this technology. We are satisfied that we did.

I believe that the commencement speech Steve Jobs delivered at Stanford University sums up the way he thought people should live their lives. Listen to it here.

Thank you, Steve Jobs, for all you did to make this a better and easier world to live in.

CINDY BARGANIER ~ INTERIOR DESIGN

2011-10-18T16:32:00.000-07:00

Interior designer Cindy Barganier needs no introduction in Alabama, but I wanted to share the work and accomplishments of this talented designer with my readers. This well known, sought after designer has projects completed and underway throughout the South, and her work has been showcased in numerous publications.

Barganier graduated from Auburn University with a degree in interior design and continues to be involved as an advisor and lecturer. She has also taught continuing education classes in design at Auburn University Montgomery. Her list of accomplishments is far too extensive to present here, so please visit her website to see her entire portfolio. Cindy also authors the lovely blog, Forever Design.

Now settled in the quaint town of Pike Road, with husband Jeff, Bargainer has created her own line of furnishings, fabrics, and rugs. Below I have included images of not only the rooms that Cindy has previously designed, but an introduction to pieces she designed and manufactures. ENJOY!

BOBBY MCALPINE ~ DESIGN IN WINE COUNTRY

2011-10-17T06:53:00.000-07:00

Cofounders Don and Rela Gleason of Summer Hill furnishings called on architects Bobby McAlpine and John Sease of McAlpine Tankersley when they decided to build their home, Casa Kulanu, in the northern California town of Calistoga. The three pavilions include a main structure and two pavilions built using McAlpine's trademark stucco, wood, stone, and numerous windows.

The main structure includes the living room, dining room, sun room, kitchen, library, master bedroom suite, and a guest suite. One of the ancillary pavilions houses a garage with an office/studio with bath above and a media room and wine cellar below. The other ancillary is a garage with a two-bedroom suite for visitors above.

It is no secret that I admire the work of Montgomery's Bobby McAlpine. His attention to detail is impeccable, and every home he designs is a masterpiece. ENJOY!

When a Manhattan philanthropist asked Peter Shelton and Lee F. Mindel to renovate an apartment while leaving the original bones, this is exactly what they did. The owner, with a little more traditional taste than the architects, took a leap of faith when hiring them. ENJOY!

BETH WEBB ~ RUSTIC PERFECTION

2011-10-08T05:41:00.000-07:00

Georgia interior designer Beth Webb created a European/Southern appeal in this beautiful country home in rural Georgia. Although Webb used a neutral backdrop, there is plenty of color and texture in this house. The lack of window treatments leaves the home open to views of the countryside and a pond.

I have long been a fan of Beth Webb's work, and this is no exception! ENJOY!

I just want to tell you how much all of you mean to me! Thank you for reading my blog each day! Your support is a major factor in the success of my blog.

______________________________________

When House Beautiful magazine designer Pat Healing took on a total design makeover for a couple and their three children, she used bold color in small patches throughout. Healing started from scratch, using lavender, green, pink, purple and turquoise against a backdrop of white. What resulted was a home that deserves a BRAVO from me! What do you think? ENJOY!

DAVID NETTO ~ DESIGN ON LONG ISLAND

2011-10-04T10:17:00.000-07:00

Interior designer David Netto decorated this Long Island home, with the flair of a Scandinavian cabin, as a wedding gift for her friends. A major renovation changed this house into a place that was warm and beautiful.

A ladder in a closet that leads to a widows walk, the extra large windows, and the Corian straircase wall and the kitchen island make this home, with a Swedish look, modern yet comfortable. The modern art inside has been collected by the owners. ENJOY!
