Photographer Dillon Marsh…


It is no secret we love photography and it’s a happy day when we discover a new photographer. Such is the case with South African photographer Dillon Marsh’s work. We are drawn to his stark landscapes and are fascinated by the way he isolates a particular subject and creates a series out of them–power lines, dead trees, cell phone towers–are just some of the things he masterfully captures. And oh the weaver birds nests…such incredible houses they make. Would love to see those in person. Here are a few of our favorite photographs from his site.

Sculptor Nic Fiddian-Green

Our love of horses and riding is just one of the many things we share in common. So when we saw the work of artist Nic Fiddian-Green we were stunned by its scale and beauty. Inspired by his own chestnut hunter George (see below for picture of Green with his beloved horse), his work is utter perfection to us. We’d take any of them. Here are a few of the many pieces we fell in love with on his site.

David Wiseman




The NYTimes T magazine recently published a story on the notably talented artist David Wiseman. A resident of Los Angeles, Wiseman’s work centers around nature’s most delicate forms–blossoming flowers to fleeting glaciers. We are captivated by his ability to transform everyday materials like brass, glass and porcelain into gorgeous interior objects and lighting that retain a sense of natural wonder. We can’t wait until we have a client with an artful eye and adventurous interior to install one of his masterpieces in their space!

John James Audubon




Nicki, our resident bird watcher, has gotten us both obsessed with spotting and fawning over the plethora of our feathered friends as they stop over in Central Park before heading south for the winter. To solidify our nerd cred, we stumbled upon an exciting and eye-opening talk about one of the most famous bird obsessed individuals John James Audubon who is best known for The Birds of America, the book that contains his illustrations of all 435 birds that were known in the United States around 1827, the year the book was first published.



Listen to this two part podcast from Stuff You Missed in History Class about Audubon’s early life and the process of getting TBOA published. It’s fascinating look at man who changed the face of ornithology.



Landscape Artist April Gornik


We stumbled upon painter April Gornik’s gorgeous landscapes after seeing one her paintings hanging in Ina Garten’s new kitchen. This American born artist paints nature like it’s a stunning photograph. We are a bit obsessed and would love to find a home for one in one of our clients’ spaces!
