Summer End

We took a blog holiday this Summer, but are back in full force.  
It is a time for traveling to avoid the extreme heat in Arizona and we covered allot of ground. Here is a quick update on summer activities. 

We were featured twice in Luxe Magazine Spaces Column- highlighting outdoor spaces at a beautiful home in the Oakland Hills overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge. This was designed by Craig Steely and the landscape architect was Bernard Trainer.  Furniture by Sutherland.

In the Luxe Southwest edition- a home deigned with architect Jim Blochberger – featured a casita we furnished along with the homeowner that has a spectacular view toward Camelback Mountain. Furniture by On The Veranda.
