Design Lines Indoor/Outdoor By Pamela Hughes

Design Lines – Indoor / Outdoor By Pamela Hughes Sarasota! What better place to let the outdoors in and live in the outdoors! So much of our year has balmy breezes and minimal bug-life that you can spend a great deal of time either in the sun or under cover. Either way there are many ways to enjoy comfort and luxury while enjoying nature’s gifts. One of the ways we like to use the outdoors is an architectural feature often called a “loggia”. This is often a terrace with a roof, sometimes part of the structure of a house, sometimes […]

Design Lines The Sarasota School Of Architecture By Pamela Hughes In our last column, I wrote about Modern Design, so I thought it might be interesting to further the discussion and specifically focus on Sarasota itself and “The Sarasota School”. It is interesting to recall that this “modernism” is now more than 50 years old! While that is certainly true, it is also true that as one drives around Sarasota and occasionally sees these houses and buildings from that time, they retain a freshness and originality that is still stunning and inspiring. In an earlier time, Sarasota was a beautiful, […]

Design Lines – Modern Design By Pamela Hughes There is lots of talk and awareness of “Modern Design” today, so for this month’s column I thought it might be interesting to explore the history of how this design style evolved. Sarasota is a place known for its Modern Design heritage, and in fact, has numerous wonderful examples of this design dialect, which we will delve into in a future column. So, let’s look at a bit of history first. Design is all around us, whether we are aware of it or not.  Any time a human being has applied paint […]

Design Lines – Embellished Surfaces by Pamela Hughes

Design Lines – Embellished Surfaces By Pamela Hughes It is amazing how intertwined art is with design. The two words are almost synonymous. In previous columns, I’ve written about buying art and how to frame it, and we have had numerous columns about various facets of design. In this column, I’d like to write about having art actually created on the surface of our interiors: truly blending art with design. We have long been an admirer and proponent of painted surfaces and have often used artists and craftsmen to embellish limited surfaces of a home. Like most things, if overdone, […]

Design Lines: Houses with Boats By Pamela Hughes What could be more fun than having a house on one of our many beautiful Sarasota waterways and having a boat with the house as well? Well, not much, as long as the house is in Sarasota or some other gorgeous locale. For this month’s column, I thought it would be entertaining to write about a project we are completing in the British West Indies. The project is 19 Deckhouses at The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman. These are individual luxury homes with all the services of the nearby Ritz-Carlton. Each home includes an […]

Reaping What We Sow By Tracy Eisnaugle Getting your hands dirty and relying on the earth can be just the inspiration that one needs to realize that with some hard work, patience and a lot of love you too can reap the rewards from your own garden full of fresh fruits and vegetables. Last February I decided to give gardening an honest try. As a certified over-planner and known germaphobe this was going to be a challenge for me, but I knew I had to get over all my internal dilemmas and just dig in. After some late fees on […]

Ready Set Market Part II By Tracy Eisnaugle Last month we started discussing design consultation or staging techniques to assist in the process of getting your home or listings ready for the market. This month we will continue the discussion with additional tips and pointers remembering that our goal is to de-personalize and de-clutter the residence. Potential buyers need to be able to visualize their own style and furnishings in the potential home, if a home has too much stuff even if it is great stuff buyers can become overwhelmed and distracted. Here is a list of additional pointers to […]

Tracy Eisnaugle Ready Set Market – Part I

Ready Set Market – Part I By Tracy Eisnaugle Over time as we live in our homes we tend to accumulate clutter, adding the latest trends, attaining things we just have to have or gifts we didn’t necessarily ask for. Somehow we find the space and incorporate more and more into our homes. One of my professional duties is to provide design consultation services to real estate agents. Some people use the term staging, but I do not offer furniture or design services to my agents’ clients, eliminating any sales pressure for the homeowner. My goal is to assist the […]

Design Lines – Buying Art By Pamela Hughes In a column a few months ago, I wrote about the art of framing. Now, after spending a few weeks searching the art markets for clients, it seems appropriate to write about the selection and purchasing of art. The phrase, “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder,” is never as true as it is with art. Even educated and totally knowledgeable art critics can have different views on a particular piece of art. Sometimes art is selected because the viewer sees it as pleasant, calming, beautiful, technically well-produced, shocking, avant-garde, valuable, […]

“Recessionista” In The Kitchen – Part II By Tracy Eisnaugle Last month’s column was Part I of “Recessionista” In The Kitchen, we embraced our inner lunch lady and learned how to pinch a penny by multi-purposing our proteins. Being that I love to cook and enjoy the creative process almost as much as I enjoy eating and saving a buck, it was difficult to fit all of the kitchen related Recessionista tips into one column. So this month we finish off the kitchen with a few cooking, prepping, shopping, and dividing techniques. Living in Florida is a wonderful experience, but […]

The Concession Golf Club and Residences is being developed by Kevin Daves with an outstanding golf course designed by Jack Nicklaus and Tony Jacklin.
