GLAMOROUS: Palmer Weiss

Today, I have the day of for the President's Holiday! 
Yeah for me! Slept in until 8:00, walked the dog and now I am enjoying a steaming hot cup of coffee while I post and read some of my favorites this morning!  This weekend was crazy busy. My house looks like a tornado went through it! Shifting furniture, hanging art (lost of art!) moving stacks of books and magazines. Organizing getting ready for spring!  How was your weekend?

Continuing with Glamorous design this month, today I bring you 

Palmer Weiss
A southern girl from South Carolina
Lives in San Francisco
She designs with beautiful balance of familial, formal yet livable, functional with a touch of southern eccentricity with bursts of colour.

I enjoy her use of modern furniture in traditional settings, she blends and blurs the lines of the eras combining them harmoniously.  The glint and glamour is minimal but glamorous, just the right amount of pretty. The textures she uses are a visual delight from grass cloth wall covering to pretty lightly colours glass lamp bases to shiny patton leather on seating to lacquered pieces with a gloss beauty all their own. Oh, and I love her occasional use of animal print!
