In February, I took a trip to my old stomping grounds of New Orleans and visited artist Hayley Gaberlavage, whose work I featured on Casa in September. I met Hayley through another NOLA artist, Amanda Stone Talley, and both, with their sweet Southern hearts and innate, nonpareil style, were instant friend crushes. Hayley lives on the coolest block of Magazine Street, one of the most vibrant, Read more
Here's a post from CasaSugar Community member aah123 from the Su Casa group: I recently relocated to New York from Los Angeles and in the process, lost half my living space. With only approximately 450 square feet to work with, I decided to get creative and go with a non-traditional layout. My bedroom is set up where the living room is normally situated, and my cozy living room is typically used Read more
After visiting Julie Neill's stunning New Orleans lighting and furnishing shop — take the tour here! — Julie was kind enough to walk me down the street for a tour of her studio, where she and her talented team of artisans create custom chandeliers, sconces, and more by hand. It was fascinating to see how a detailed sketch is transformed into a working, ETL-approved light fixture, which will Read more
YumSugar editor Katie has been working on decorating her studio lately and came to me for a little advice. In addition to a real cowhide rug (she accidentally ordered a polypropylene one), one of the big items on her shopping list is a storage bench — another multipurpose piece I wish I'd owned in my old studio. She's been eyeing the Urban Outfitters Jet Set Storage Bench ($248), but she's not Read more
Here's a post from CasaSugar Community member dezignerwannabe from the Su Casa group: My husband installed a mini chandelier, painted the walls in shades of violet, and installed new floors and crown molding on the baseboards, ceiling, and window! I LOVE my creative space now. The white furniture is from Target.com. After photos: View 3 Photos ›Photo 1Photo 2Photo 3 To see the before Read more
Here's a post from CasaSugar Community member SoFlaNYCnola from the Su Casa group: I'm just getting settled in a studio apartment in the French Quarter of New Orleans. After living in NYC for so many years, I'm looking forward to having some color and sunlight in my home. I have colorful art (more on the way), and a very colorful dresser arrived just this morning. I love the upcycled dresser but Read more
PartySugar asked the Assisted Living group for help decorating her new place: Hey readers! I just moved and need to start decorating my new place. I have tons of white walls and am open to affordable and creative ideas. The bad news is, I can't paint because I don't own the place. I took a bunch of photos of the space now. It's a studio. I'm going with brown as a base color and pink, turqioise, Read more
Small is beautiful, as Johanna proves in her pretty, hip, and organized Växjö, Sweden, studio. Take the tour with me to check out her Scandinavian style, and then pop over to her site to learn more about the woman behind the apartment. Source: Flickr User Johanna.B Read more
Here's a post from CasaSugar Community member ChicConservator from the Su Casa group: One of the main projects in my house is to go through and paint all the rooms. With all the snow days I've had this winter, I've had plenty of time to re-paint the room I am calling my studio. The paint color I chose is "Environmental" by Behr. We went with the Behr premium plus paint and it is so nice to Read more
The New York Times recently featured the 178-square-foot Brooklyn studio of Zach Motl, a junior designer for design firm Robert Couturier & Associates, who also worked for Miles Redd. The amount of stylish, sophisticated furnishings packed into Motl's one-room apartment is nearly impossible, but somehow it looks polished. One of the things that helps his digs look less cluttered is his Ikea Read more
