Interior Decorator Alex Papachristidis

Would like to share with you this beautiful work of interior decorator Alex Papachristidis for his elegance, sophistication and luxury. The work of Alex Papachristidis can be described as a dynamic fusion of modern and eclectic combined with luxury and tradition. Editors, designers and clients alike use the word “fresh” to define his approach, his color palette and the delightful details that make even a small room sizzle with style. This blogpost is a repost of my blog of 07-12-2014. Be Inspired .......

Born and raised in New York City, Papachristidis got his first big commission - a large Manhattan apartment - while a student at Parsons School of Design. This quickly led to a second project, a townhouse, for a couple he met at a dinner party in the South of France. “Once I started,” says Alex, “I never looked back. I established my own firm in 1987. Even now, I find decorating the most amazing career. I can’t imagine doing anything else. Growing up, I traveled widely and saw many beautiful homes in Europe and America, which helped cultivate my eye. And I was born to shop!”

Today, Papachristidis’ interiors can be found all over the world from Manhattan, the Hamptons, Connecticut, Florida, Texas and Colorado - to London and Saudi Arabia. Recent projects include a grand English style country house in the Hamptons, with a creative layering of patterns, embroidery and sisals; an Eaton Square apartment with an unexpected mix of modern and 18th century furniture; and a Westchester home with whimsical old world prints, silk velvets and chinoiserie.

Unlike some designers, Papachristidis welcomes his clients’ ideas. “Often the most interesting projects are the ones in which a savvy client is intimately involved,” he says. A perfectionist, he likes to see a project through to its smallest details - from the finials on lamps to custom made linens and couture tissue holders. “The greatest pleasure for me,” says Papachristidis, “is when clients tell us we’ve turned their home into an ‘exquisite haven,’ a place to simply sit back, relax and enjoy.” In December 2009, Papachristidis launched his first line of carpets and is currently developing furniture and fabric lines. Can't wait to buy his inspiring interiorbook: The Age of Elegance - Interiors by Alex Papachristidis.

Meet Idan, the fashion designer

After becoming the family company’s Creative Director, he realized his passion in luxurious couture bridal gowns and eveningwear. After graduating from fashion school Marangoni, Idan came back from London to Israel in 2011 to open his own humble studio in Dizengoff. A rapid success, three years later the studio has moved to a 4000 sq. foot store in the fashionable neighborhood of Neve Tzedek and nowadays Idan opened his luxuries fashion house in Jaffa Tel Aviv in a spectacular vintage space of 200 years old.

Interior: Nice hocker design 'Mr. Grasshopper' for In- and Outdoors

Good Morning! Would like to share with you today this nice & funny hocker design 'Mr. Grasshopper' by Peter & Mirjam Carels. Mr. Grasshopper is a grass green hocker. Sustainable, soft to sit on and strong in use. You don't need to cut the grass. :-) It is weather resistant and the grass doesn't need to be watered either. A real eyecatcher in the garden! Also for styling e.g. the living room or the office space, it is just sufficient to place the hocker there. Upholstered with high-quality artificial grass. This nice hocker is available at the Dutch company Tafel-design.nl. They have more inspiring products, e.g. Retro Furniture Fesign, the Ergonomic design stool 'Ercolino' in beech wood as well as the 'Baby Ball Design Chair' for the little ones. This blogpost is a repost of my blog of 24-04-2017.
