Jonathan Adler and Simon Doonan Describe Their Greenwich Village Home
Most of us describe our homes in fairly generic terms, tossing out "modern," "traditional with a twist," or "relaxed Regency," if pressed for a characterization. Well, leave it to Jonathan Adler and Simon Doonan to turn dull description on its head. To hear how they describe their home, read more

There's been no shortage of coverage of uber-cutie couple Jonathan Adler and Simon Doonan this year on CasaSugar, because the pair has churned out a surplus of great design.

Halloween How-To: Simon Doonan
Yesterday, I showed you how your man can dress like Jonathan Adler this Halloween. Adler's wardrobe is an endless bucket of fun, so he's an ideal costume inspiration for any design fiend. But Adler's hubby Simon Doonan, creative director of Barneys New York and recent Top Design guest judge, is the go-to guy when it comes to fashion expertise, and never shows up at a party in anything less than eccentric.
Top Design, Episode Eight: "Light It Up"
Three men (Preston, Eddie, and Nathan) and two women (Ondine and Andrea) remain on Top Design. Right off the bat, we are treated to more homesickness from Andrea (in case you forgot, which it is literally impossible to do if you watch the show regularly, she's Ricky Schroder's wife). As the episode begins, Andrea receives flowers and a love poem from her hubz, which she says makes her even more homesick.

Coveted Crib: Jonathan Adler and Simon Doonan's Pied-à-terre
In honor of Jonathan Adler and Simon Doonan's impending nuptials, I thought I'd give you a sneak peek at what their married life at home away from home looks like. USA Today recently interviewed them in their Shelter Island, New York home, which Doonan aptly described as, "a fully branded home." The space is in many ways the love child of a Jonathan Adler shop and a Barneys window display (Doonan is creative director) — bursting with energy, color, creativity, and Adler's inventory.
This Just In: Jonathan Adler and Simon Doonan to Tie the Knot
It's not every day that one of my favorite designers gets hitched, so I'm excited to tell you that designer Jonathan Adler and Barney's New York creative director (and author) Simon Doonan plan to legally tie the knot in mid-September in California, according to New York.
But their big day won't be your usual ostentatious celebrity wedding. In the New York article, Doonan was quoted saying, "I always thought we were married, so I don’t feel like celebrating the fact that the government’s allowing me to think I’m married.

Halloween How-To: Martha Stewart
This Halloween, I've costumed you as some of the biggest forces in the design world: Jonathan Adler, Simon Doonan, and Kelly Wearstler. But, you must also consider the queen bee homemaker herself, Martha Stewart. She may not sport a floral button-down daily like Doonan or experiment with wild tress techniques like Wearstler, but she does have a distinct style: classic and age-appropriate, always with her signature blond bob.
