Björn Wallander for House BeautifulA TEENSY apartment I decorated for my friend and Scorpio Soul Sister Rebecca Phillips (a very talented photographer/yoga instructor -- that's her abstract closeup of coin-operated dolphin kiddie ride above) has landed in the pages of House Beautiful's July/August issue!! Just a little teaser here since I want you all to run out and buy a copy, but you can also check out a video tour of her pad here ... please, no comments on my wig, billowy checked blouse, or nasal squeal! BIGGEST thanks to EIC Newell Turner, Decorating Director Doretta Sperduto for reaching out, Creative Director Scott Schy for getting our girlie-Mexi-Frenchie-with-an-edge moment, and Style Director (and proud Brooklynite) Sabine Rothman and Senior Editors Orli Ben-Dor and Christine Pittel for a fabulous shoot and interview. Last but not least, thanks to genius photog Björn Wallander for capturing this labor of love and humoring us all as we shifted around candied kiwis, turquoise Buddha heads and Sylvia Plath novels until they looked just so. I am JUST SO THRILLED!!

ReplyDeleteAlready blogged my love for it. FANTASTIC job!
ReplyDeleteI'm loving the dresser, the duvet cover, the Scorp nods, and the sweets scattered about! Great job!
ReplyDeleteOh I just saw it! Brilliant! I love the chair with the serape, the painting above the loveseat, the chevron dresser, the bedside lamps, the seagrass...I'm gushing. I'll stop. blush.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on landing in HB--and great job of showing that a small space can be just as fabulous and special as a honkin' big space.
ReplyDeleteLove it so much, that chevron chest, the headboard fabric, those billowy drapes with the trim, the red night tables, that amazing little kitchen, the coffee table, the green trim on the doors, the modern art and then my favorite flowers ever, sweet peas!
ReplyDeleteI think this may be my most favorite House Beautiful in a loooong time. It was just stunning. Now I know in part, why. Well done.
ReplyDeleteI just saw it this weekend and LOVE the color palette you did! Definitely my favorite spread! Beyond gorgeous space, you are so talented! I can't wait to see more of your work in the future...you should be proud of yourself!!!

ReplyDeleteWow. Have been following you since the early Domino days, and you always inspire. This one is absolutely beautiful!! I'm in love with the dresser, and the piped loveseat, and the doors. Keep it up and congrats!
ReplyDeleteyou're a genius; you've managed (again) to make cramped city-living look desirable. i keep going back to it and each time there's another idea i promise myself i'm going to jack. you completely stole the show this issue.
ReplyDeleteCharming, I have always loved an unfussed slipcover-and a tiny space. congrats. pgt

ReplyDeleteyep, was wondering when it would show up here. this is the big time. and it was so much more fun than a lot of the other spaces, thank goodness. congrats!
ReplyDeleteVery excited for you. Awesome job. I have even forgiven you for being a lame blogger.
ReplyDeleteIt was seriously my favorite feature. I've already returned to it several times in the last few days. Brilliant work, and I'm sure not the last glossy feature we'll see of your work!

Beautiful job! Does Rebecca sell her photography? Is there any way to get in touch with her?
ReplyDeleteYes, I would love to see if Rebecca sells her photography too. I have looked online for her and couldn't find her. I love that photograph.

ReplyDeleteRebecca
p.s. thank you!
Wow, I also live in a super tiny space and thought I was doing an ok job making the most of it...you're amazing! Absolutely love it.
ReplyDeleteWell done! I live in a reasonably large place but need a tiny space-aware friend to help me make the best of it instead of wasting space.
ReplyDeleteLove the space - the red and green combo is gorgeous. Congratulations on the feature. It was my favorite in the mag!
ReplyDeleteBig Congrats, Nick, on your House Beautiful spread! I have been loving your style since the good old Domino days. I can't decide on a favorite, but that chevron dresser is so clever...makes me want to raid Craigslist!
ReplyDeletecONGRATS, cOUNT nICK-OLAS! LOVE YOUR STYLE AND IT'S GOOD TO STOP BY AND GET A DOSE OF YOUR TRADEMARK SPUNKY WRITING.
ReplyDeleteI love this. It might be the most perfect little place I've ever seen. I was blown away. I have the magazine opened to this layout and I don't want to turn the page for fear I will break the beautiful spell that comes over me when I look at what you've done. You've inspired me and given me hope. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteOfficially obsessed with this space! Was standing at the checkout flipping mags when I saw this the other day, and did a jaw drop. LOVE everything, especially the colors. Needless to say, I bought the issue.
ReplyDeleteNow I have a reason to buy this HB issue. Fab! Yeah, upholstering the chair with that Mexican blanket was a genius idea. I used to have 2 of those blankets. Why couldn't I think to use them this way?!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Nick. Always a pleasure to see your work.
OMG! I've loved your work & personality ever since i laid eyes on your WALLPAPERED fridge in Domino (miss it, loved it and never let a single copy out of my cold, dead hands!)
ReplyDeleteWhat a unique idea to trim out those cabinets!
More please!!!!!
You can decorate apartments and make them into beautiful places to live. You have a gift my friend.
