Lighting
I am constantly amazed by the imagination and beauty of lighting in today’s world. My mother was an architect and I grew up with a back porch that was illuminated by lights recessed into the ceilings and disguised as stars. A memory so lovely that I still love the night stars.

Small spaces can be quite chic with the use of art, pendant lighting (or any great cohesive lighting) and a sense for design and detail. In fact, it’s all in the detail as you will see with this super cute small condo.
Chandelier Magic

Empire style is a French 19th century design aesthetic that was defined by opulence and ornate touches. Fast forward to now and there is whole category of crystal and other material chandeliers that is considered a French Empire style chandelier. The silhouette is narrow at the top and then curves down into a bowl or cup shape at the bottom.
