Needless to say, it was a once in a lifetime opportunity to experience his designs in person. I urge you to pull out your January/February 2009 issue of Elle Decor if you need to refresh your memory and while you are looking, let me tell you that it looks 1000 times better in real life!

For the party, they had set out pretty Asian lanterns to welcome their guests.

Everything is perfect and since it was recently completed, everything is perfect. There is not one thing out of place or even a corner with a nick in the paint!

Many of them are small and cozy which is probably the size they were originally. I think a lot of other owns might have been tempted to blow out walls and open the house up front to back but the small rooms allow for a surprise around corner!

Many of the rooms are also painted in custom high gloss paint which I've mentioned before is especially nice in small spaces because it reflects a lot of light.

During the party, it also served as a bar area.

We noticed them while were at the party and remarked that other homeowners might have stained them dark which would created a much different look.

It's hard to tell but there is a jib door on the left that leads to a powder room. I really loved the red trim that runs along the cabinetry.

When I looked down it as we were leaving, it reminded me of the photos of Paris buildings that I had posted earlier. The first area is the "mudroom" where they hang coats and also the washer and dryer that are hidden by doors lined with chicken wire and antiqued mirror.

Luckily, it has a window to the front street so it feels more cozy that small.

I won't name any names but there were a lot of big designers at the party and one whose own home you have oohed and ahhed over also mentioned wanting to redecorate while another said it made her feel like she still lives in college!

It definitely inspired everyone in the room.

It might have made the cover too busy or interfered with the typeface.

It's hard to tell but it looked to be hung from an anchor and had dolphin motifs.

It's nice to have places to sit things where you need them.

It was neutral and soothing but not devoid of interesting details. The closet door on the right has inset panels of antique mirror which make it look like it has been there forever.

It was also styled with topiaries for the party and looked like a great place to eat dinner or enjoy a glass of wine in the evening.


I really want to thank Steven Gambrel on behalf of everyone who attended the party for inviting us into his home. It was very generous of him to open it up to a big group and I think I speak for everyone when I say that it was truly inspiring and motivating and I know we all hope to get to his level someday
