Rowlan Lofts Living Room


Since I have just ended all things Tom and am in between topics, I thought I would share a project that I have been working on. It's a design for a Bachelor's Loft at the Rowland Lofts in downtown Los Angeles.

You'll soon realize this post has nothing directly to do with Tom. I know, I'm breaking the rules for my topic of Tom! Hear me out though.

Tom Ford Vignette


I am occasionally working for friends and family on Interior Design projects, but my new hobby is to find actual floor plans of residences in the Los Angeles area and create projects. It can be a lot of fun considering I work with no budget.

Tom Ford's Santa Fe Ranch


This is the stunning contemporary ranch that Tom Ford calls home outside of Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Music: Tom Ford


"I don't pop molly, I rock Tom Ford" raps Jay-Z on his twelfth studio album, Magna Carta...Holy Grail.

MCHG is at the very least the best rap album of this summer and at the very most the best rap album of the year. It was certified Platinum the day of it's release! That has to be some kind of record and was accomplished in part to due to an unprecedented digital download deal with Samsung subscribers. An innovative and modern day approach to album sales by Jay-Z.

Scent: Tom Ford Private Blend Collection


The collection of Tom Ford fragrances already boasts thirty-eight different varieties since it's inception in 2005. And the private blend collection, a group of fragrances each designed to capture a different, distinctive mood, has a new addition every year.

Education: Tom Ford


There is no better Tom for my celebration of all things Tom than Mr. Tom Ford. To say that I am completely in love with everything that this man does is an understatement. Although I am not financially established enough (yet) to don his designs from head to toe, I take any piece of him I can get (glasses, sunglasses, books, fragrances).

Inside by Tom: Studio 5


I have been a fan of this space by Interior Designer Tom Delavan ever since it graced the pages of Architectural Digest Spain (my absolute favorite design magazine).

Tom of Finland Dining Room


While we are inspired by Tom of Finland during my month of all things Tom, let's design a Dining Room with his working class, motorcycle fueled art as inspiration.

Art: Tom of Finland

 
Tom of Finland is a huge artistic inspiration in my life. I have three of his books (with plenty more on my Amazon Wish List) and am constantly studying his style of sketching when I work on my own art pieces. I love the way he outlines the form and shadows his work.

Inside by Tom: The Dock Kitchen London


Brass heaven. This space by Tom Dixon at The Dock Kitchen London is contemporary, industrial and glamorous all thrown into the same pot.

Book: Tommyland


I already know that I'm not going to sound very cultured when I say that Tommyland is one of the few books I've actually finished reading. Not that I haven't ever finished another book, but this one really kept my interest. So much so that I read The Dirt: The Life and Times of Motley Crue after finishing it.

Inside by Tom: The Tokyo Hipsters Club


I can't tell you how much I love the leather punching bag in this space. Very masculine. In fact, that was the idea.

Education: Tom Dixon


Rock and Roll meets Interior Design. Many Interior Designers are familiar with Tom Dixon and his line of exquisite sculptural home furnishings and lighting. But, did they know that music and motorcycles were the first pieces of inspiration for Dixon?

Tom Bianchi Outdoor Space


My Tom Bianchi inspiration just keeps on running. But how can you translate literal inspiration into Interior Design? I'm going to give you some ideas using an outdoor space with Bianchi and Fire Island Pines in mind.

Style: Tom Bianchi


Feeling inspired by Tom Bianchi yet? If not, maybe it's time for a new uniform for your assembly line.

With the help of Mr. Porter, Urban Outfitters and SSense, I've got your Fire Island Pines essentials.

Inside by Tom: Copake Lake House


I love a gorgeous wall treatment. I work as a painter sometimes (on the side) distressing cabinets and finishing walls with stripes or leather and plaster techniques.
