It’s official!

No Era will be closing down their booth at in Cincinnati.

As much as I’ve loved being in the space, it feels right to open it up for others in the local community so you can get more of what Cincinnati vintage has to offer.

Starting today, everything is 40% off. Some exclusions do apply. I also have additional inventory stored in their lower level, just ask their staff for assistance if you want to see those pieces.

I know a lot of you might wait it out for a deeper discount , but if something’s been on your radar, now’s the time. The sale will also extend to my online shop, but I wanted to give you first access to awesome local deals.

For questions, it’s best to reach out to directly, since they’re handling my Cincinnati inventory. Even better, go in and take a look in person.

Bye 👋🏼

Good Morning 🌞 🌳🦜

A slice of life from my surreal bedroom design I affectionately call The Bird Haus.

Being a morning person, I tend to gravitate toward light-filled spaces. I love that the windows in here face east, so that I rise with the sun.

Do you lean toward a dark, quiet room or something more open and bright?

Stay tuned for more bo***ir inspo from The Bird Haus.

Lighting does more than light a room when it has character.

These striking botanical floor lamps by Christian Pellizzari, part of the Odyssey of Nature’s Rebirth collection, are exactly that idea in practice. They are sculptural Murano glass forms with mirrored and copper toned surfaces that respond to movement and angle rather than sitting static in a room. The botanical references are present but not literal, giving the forms a surreal and otherworldly presence.

What makes them interesting is that they don’t separate function from form. They still work as lighting, while also changing how a room feels just by being there. The result is something much more playful, whimsical, and a little unexpected.

Although most of us are not working with a 1stDibs level budget for home accents, the good news is there are still options that do not rely on price or rarity to feel considered. Vintage lighting, especially Postmodern pieces, tends to be more experimental in form, material, and scale than what is commonly produced today, particularly when compared to standard retail lighting. Roguier was well known for luminous biomorphic creations, alongside Herman Miller designers like Noguchi and George Nelson. For those who are more color adventurous, Jonathan Adler and ABC Home also offer pieces that bring that same sense of playfulness into a room.

It starts with thinking about lighting differently and considering, beyond light and utility, what colors, textures, shapes, forms, and materials can be introduced into a room through a lamp.

Start paying attention to the lighting, especially the next time you walk into a space that actually leaves an impression. Notice what the lamps are doing, how they are placed, what they add beyond light.

Luxury Without Context

More and more, I’m seeing vintage and designer pieces priced at a premium, but the environments they’re sold in haven’t kept pace. What’s missing is the restraint around the object, the context that gives it weight. Flea markets, vintage warehouses, and thrift shops that once held a sense of discovery now feel inflated, competitive, and performative for social media.

“Design inspiration” has also become something people are paying to access. Ticketed events positioned as cultural moments, but the reality is often underwhelming. Poor lighting, inconsistent presentation, and objects stacked on top of one another without much consideration, all carrying prices that suggest something far more deliberate.

You don’t need to pay admission to appreciate design.

Walk into Printemps New York and the difference is clear. A Paris institution, now in New York, operating with a level of consistency between product and setting that feels considered.

Here, the Red Room, designed by Hildreth Meière, comes into focus. A suspended shoe forest moves through the Art Deco inspired space, set against red ombré walls and gold mosaic tile. Nothing about it feels incidental. The presentation holds together through the room itself, where each element has space to register without competing for attention. And get this, it’s open. There is no admission nor performance around access. You can walk in, take it in, and leave without obligation.

Luxury is not just the object. It is the context around it, the restraint that allows it to hold weight. Without that, it is just markup dressed as relevance.

Field Trip

Mall World, have you heard of this? It is a recurring dream phenomenon people talk about on Reddit and TikTok. Endless mall environments that feel familiar at first, then slightly off the longer you stay in them. Escalators that do not align, flickering lights and figures with no faces. Most accounts describe the same sensation of being lost inside it.

Mall World reads like a liminal space because its structure does not behave like a real environment. It feels more like an artificial, AI-generated version of a place constructed from human memory.

This majestic sweeping staircase, designed by French architect Laura Gonzalez, sits at the center of Printemps Department store in NYC. With its helical form, mirrored walls, and curved oak handrails, it has the same surreal, disorienting quality people describe in Mall World, only more regal and pleasing to the eye.

This is the version of Mall World I want to be lost in. Meet me here in the astral plane, or in real life for a coffee at or oysters at . We’ve got options.

Kicked my way into a stack of Peter Max works like I own the place.

Peter Max is an American artist who became known for bold pop imagery in the 1960s and 70s, closely tied to the visual culture around The Beatles and the broader psychedelic era. In his later work seen here, that sharp graphic style softens into atmospheric, washed color fields where forms dissolve into haze rather than sitting on hard outlines. Airbrushed gradients replace flat blocks of color, and recurring symbolic elements like angels, doves, and planetary motifs feel suspended and diffused across the surface instead of locked into defined edges.

In interiors, they work really well individually but really come together when hung as a diptych or triptych, especially when unified through ornate gilt framing, which ties the variation in color and detail into a single visual rhythm.

Lately I’ve been referring to my Brooklyn studio as a design monastery.

When I first arrived it was modestly furnished. A carved wood pew, a French Gothic iron torchère you’d expect to see in a basilica, and walls filled with fine art. It sat somewhere between gallery and place of worship.

Since then I’ve brought in a few of my own furnishings to make the space feel like my own. I’ve kept a few pieces as a nod to the quiet monastery like environment it originally created in the room.

Unfortunately for me, they are not mine to keep but they can be yours. These objects and more are available for purchase online or for local pickup in Brooklyn.

DM with interest.
