The Humble with the Splendid



When interviewed for a thirteen page spread in Utah Homes & Garden Magazine, I was asked what my design philosophy was in building our new Country Home




That's easy,  The Humble with the Splendid




Utah Homes and  Garden







Utah Homes and Garden




Utah Homes and  Garden




Utah Homes and Garden





Some People like Silver, I LOVE Gold





I also Love my French and Italian Chandeliers





This is the other gold mirror, this time without the base.  I can't believe that we transported both mirrors in our old truck.  They arrived without a scratch.


Have a great weekend, my dear Blogging Friends

Gina

    Congratulations, Gina! The beauty and charm of your house will doubtlessly make for one of the most popular editions of the magazine. Did they use the montage format in the magazine, too?

    Hello Mark, The montage series I did yesterday, walking around my house. The straight photographs, for the magazine, were shot a few years ago by a very talented photographer, Mikel Covey. My "reproductions" don't do them justice.

    Congratulations, Gina, on the magazine! Your house is such an inspiration for European style! I have always loved everything about your design, and now everyone can enjoy it through the article. Which issue of the magazine is it?

    Dear Barbara, Thank you for your compliments. It was their Anniversary Issue. The magazine won many awards but sadly, was not able to contimue publishing.
