Hudson New York


9:25am










The Hudson hotel is one of the Morgan group hotels located in New York City. This hip hotel has a spectacular private garden. The ceiling of the lobby is made of glass, inspired by a green house with fake ivy crawling all over the ceiling, coupled by a huge chandelier off center. The cocktails are a superb treat in the unique lounge. While chilling on a ghost chair and looking down at frosted neon glass floor and a huge log made by Droog,  completed this edgy ambience . My experience staying in the hotel was outstanding from beginning to end.  Good location, whole foods, museums and central park were near by, and most of all I had the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in for six days.

The Classics






Here are some of the classics I think will always be beautiful no matter how long you have them for or how worn  the furniture is. Charles & Ray Eames, Carl Hansen, Cherner , Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret & Charlotte Perriand, Eero Saarinen are those who inspired me when it comes to chairs and furniture design.

Geolu





Figure in the Garden - St. Michael, a Madonna, a giant, and a snake, all rendered in precise detail and finished in bold colors. Religious symbolism and references to mythology abound, yet any fixed meaning remains open and elusive.
