Knock knock, is anyone home? I know I've been awful at this whole blogging game (but sorta make up for it on Twitter and Instagram: @nickolsenstyle) ... J'apologize. Anyway I just HAD come back and shout about my biggest solo project to date, an apartment published in the July/August issue of Veranda:
MAJOR thanks to editor-in-chief Dara Caponigro for giving this space such prime real estate in her gorgeous magazine, stylist/producer Olga Naiman for setting the wheels in motion and arranging a mean peony, photographer Melanie Acevedo for these lush shots (trivia: she and Dara were also on hand for my big Domino cover moment back in '06 ... how time does fly), and Mimi Read for such a flattering story. And of course thanks to my clients for trusting me with their home, and for their unfailing sense of humor throughout the whole process.
If this didn't already sound like an Oscar acceptance speech I'll have to add my dear Mugatu, who's work is featured in Veranda AND Architectural Digest this month -- the latter a stunning spread in Greenwich, Connecticut. He never ceases to inspire.
Lastly I'm proud to say the dynasty continues with MRLLC alum Zach Motl, my friend (and Ralph Lauren window designer) whose crisp and airy 425-square foot studio graces House Beautiful's July/August Small Spaces issue.
Three cheers for print shelter media!!

Nick, it was a pleasure to read about how you put that place together. Congratulations! I look forward to seeing more of your work. What white paint did you use on the Oscar de la Renta bed? It's gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Anon! That's actually a decorative paint finish using Benjamin Moore's White Dove as a base with a powder called rottenstone rubbed into the carvings. But Century actually makes the bed in antique white -- it was just out of stock at the time!
ReplyDeleteThat bedroom is going to end up in the Norton's Anthology of Great Decorating, I swear.
ReplyDeletecool! congratulations!
ReplyDeleteYour Domino blog was how I found shelter blogs! Congrats on the press--HUGE. And the space is amazeballs. But just so you don't get too fancy with the Veranda crowd, you should know I spray painted a mirror frame Rustoleum Safety Red on your long ago advice just last weekend. And it is a solid red.
ReplyDeleteJust got my issue in the mail yesterday. Congratulations! You certainly hit a home run with this project. Amazing! And you're amazing, too!
ReplyDeleteWell, look at you! Swell done!
ReplyDeleteYay, great job (from what I can see). Do those Veranda people have pics online?
ReplyDeleteCongrats, the spread is fab! Well done.
ReplyDeleteThanks folks!!
ReplyDeleteYou certainly deserve to give a speach for your design work. The spread was amazing and your work was a complete knockout!
ReplyDeleteNothing feels better than getting published for the really hard work designer do.
Keep it coming...would love to see more of your work!

ReplyDeleteHi Nick,
ReplyDeleteIn the August issue of Veranda there is a room that you designed in a Manhattan Upper East apartment. The room is yellow with a brown sofa and a leopard print carpet. What is the abstract picture of that is hanging behind the sofa? Where can the print be purchased? Love your work.
Cindy
Hi Cindy,
DeleteThat abstract is an acrylic homage to the work of Robert Motherwell -- prints of his work can be found at art.com and allposters.com!
Best,
Nick
