TIFFANY BROOKS , HGTV Design Star – Artist and Interior Designer Works Her Magic

I’ve been meaning to share some work from this charismatic and talented woman since June. With the kids out of school for Summer life and work is a spiraling tug of war.

Always looking for inspiring talent, surprisingly, it sometimes finds me (or STUDIO TULLIA, that is). Tiffany purchased some pillows from me and I was thrilled to see them show up in one of her project reveals. I love to see “after” photos – one of the most rewarding things about my work.

So here are some pictures of a lovely living and dining room a la Tiffany Brooks. What really blows me away is that she is the artist who also did the art work, which seems to pull everything together.

Look at the lovely layering of textures and patterns.

Interesting vignette of the dining room. She managed to make these vintage chairs work with the finish treatment and bold color choices.   So much personality in this room.

Hope you enjoyed this splash of talent as much as I did.

Enjoy your week, and thanks for reading!

The new HGTV Magazine and the old Striped Pillow

The new HGTV Magazine and the old Striped Pillow

I used to work for Randolph & Hein, a posh showroom in San Francisco, about ten years ago. I really wanted to work there because they had Osborne & Little and Designer’s Guild fabric lines. Old time favorites.  The quality, colors, style, and marketing of these iconic English companies was wonderful to sell and be around. Not to mention the trade shows in NY, London, etc where I got to meet Tricia Guild, Nina Campbell, Anthony Little.   Such characters, great style, and so many gorgeous fabrics!  I was fortunate to be in the right place at the right time when fabrics were discontinued and fabric wings were being given away. One of these great silks ended up in my collection, that I ultimately used for a pillow in my store.

Just my luck,  HGTV magazine chose to feature the pillow with the fabulous fabric that is not available anymore in their debut issue hitting newsstands on October 4th.

I have tried to track down this fabric, made several phonecalls, emails… to no avail.

Well, I have been revisiting Designer’s Guild’s latest offerings and per the usual, everything is fabulous.

I did happen to find some wonderful silk fabrics that might be appealing to a reader who likes the above pillow. What do you think?

I thought I would also share a few other fabulous shots from Designer’s Guild’s website:

Just a weekend at one of the chateaus where they have their photo shoots would make me a happy girl…
