  7. Miles sure isn't a bad person to conjure up. And I'm kind of in love with those chevron floors.

  10. My pleasure. I notice that whenever Nick Olsen publishes anything, people automatically say they see Miles' work in it. But this is more restrained and differently edited. It feels distinct.

  12. Ha, you're hilarious. I regularly fall asleep with my laptop in bed- not normal. I'm kinda dying over the intricate wicker basket in the cover shot. Could there be chicer way to store magazines? I think not.

  13. I am in love with Nick Olsen and his designs. He is so good...and I agree a superstar. His rooms are young, fresh, current. I must pick this up.

  14. He is the mix master! So many wonderful elements all playing happily side-by-side. I love the traditional foundation that does not at all feel dated. Just a beautiful, livable, lovely home!
