bowlines

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.

So throw off the bowlines.
Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails.

Explore.
Dream.
Discover.

Chairs have such influence in a space. To me they are like a statement necklace - it elevates the design of a room. Of course Atelier Doré did a great piece on the Paris apartment of Emmanuel De Bayser a few months ago and so did Trendland of his Berlin home- below some pictures that feature exquisite chairs.

Emmanuel’s ability to incorporate an ornately decorated bedroom into a crisp modern aesthetic proves he knows exactly what he’s doing – in design, comfort, and space.

Emmanuel just re-painted the apartment, dyed the parquet, added a library and a fireplace in the living room, not much more was needed to showcase his amazing mid century collection
