Drive-By Design
We don’t mind stopping traffic to get the perfect photograph or some inspiration – even at the risk of running into a few Vermont moose!
That’s how Charlotte got this great shot showing how an architect integrated wood storage into the design of this cabin -
Of course, you can get drive-by inspiration without having to stop traffic…check out the interior of this phone booth in the lobby of Charlotte’s hotel, Twin Farms, which was designed by the late Jed Johnson and Thad Hayes.
You thought you were making a simple phone call – and then noticed a little inspiration all around you! This is a cool and affordable way to dress up a closet or a corner.
A masterful & rustic tramp art buffet in the hotel sitting room – filled with ceramics by artisans of the region. A great way to store dishes and show them off at the same time!
So, our “Drive-By Design” points:
- Decorate a closet or a corner with postcards…you can visit a museum shop for postcards of your favorite artists, paintings, or anything that excites you!
- What’s in your cupboard? A collection of something that would be great to display?
- Not everyone can design their house especially to organize & show off logs, but the idea is to get organized – grab a basket or a bin and create your own outdoor still-life.
- Even the simplest things elegantly arranged can be an artful composition
- Great colors don’t just come from paintchips. This barn picture reminds us of faded Nantucket red trousers….Look outside the paintbook to get inspired!
