A Finn Juhl Pelican chair inspired by modern “free art” sets the tone for this Coal Harbour condo. The interior is sleek and simple with a focus on function and organization. The use of curves, angles and simple edges, coupled with clean lines creates an open, uncluttered space.

We have mastered one of our favorites – Spaghetti Quattro. It all comes down to a perfect balance of simple ingredients. The recipe comes from Quattro Restaurant in North Vancouver. Simply delicious!

In this project, we once again we had the opportunity to explore the relationship between the single male and interior design. There continues a movement in design today that reflects a more masculine sensibility. With this project we further explored the world of restrained furniture details and sombre colours. The goal was to create a masculine home with great style without appearing in poor taste. The clean lines, beautiful woods and varied textures found throughout the space helped in achieving the look. You don’t have to be a man to love this style.

Yesterday, I made this delicious Pot au Chocolat with Fleur de Sel. It was the perfect amount of luxurious sweetness to end a meal. So happy to finally use these beautiful porcelain cups from Soizick de la Bruguiere that we bought in Paris years ago. Bon Appetit!

Summer makes me think of Claude Monet and his home in Giverny, where he lived for 43 years. The French painter, one of the founders of the Impressionist movement, had one of the most beautiful properties in Normandy.
I can only imagine walking through his house and garden and dream of what the atmosphere of the kitchen with its walls covered in blue Rouen tiles must have been like. The coolness of the blue contrasting with the soft glow of the copper pots and utensils is inspiring. I envision fresh flowers strewn about, with vegetables from the garden being prepared for family and friends.
We may never have the house, however, we are now able to have the kitchen tiles thanks to Pavé Tile, Wood & Stone, Inc. This American company has recreated Monet’s tiles, ensuring that any combination of the hand painted blue and white works of art will add French elegance to any style of kitchen.

“Every day I discover more and more beautiful things. It’s enough to drive one mad. I have such a desire to do everything, my head is bursting with it.”
– Claude Monet
I made this French Lemon Tart last weekend, when our good friends were visiting from Nevada. It’s a trusted recipe from one of my favorite pastry chefs David Lebovitz. The French would never consider putting berries on top of their Tarte Au Citron. I however, wanted to combine it with something local. The result, although less European, was heavenly. Bon Appetit!
