Other developers might have come in and saved nothing but the shell or, worse, just taken a wrecking ball to the whole thing. But, states designer Vanessa Alexander, “We always treat the homes we renovate as if we were going to live in them ourselves.

The Milan digs of gallerist Matthew Noble and independent filmmaker, Pierantonio Micciarelli – a former farmhouse in the Barona neighborhood – combine a decidedly metropolitan air with warm details that echo the building’s humble past.

Wonderfully irregular. A mite off-kilter. Perhaps a little rough ‘round the edges. A home that is made, not rigorously orchestrated, is never picture perfect. Or formula driven.

“The Berkshires is a beautiful place to connect with nature and escape the cities, [and] Canyon Ranch is a place to reset, recharge and be well."

With the dog days of summer starting to settle in, now is a better time than any to heed your call to the wild. Lounging poolside or from the comfort of a patio might be two suitable, yet slightly superficial, ways to soak up the sunny season. However, if you want to connect with Mother…

Truthfully, when most people think of kitchen appliances, they likely envision function-first fixings. A means to an end — something to get the job done — but an appliance that excels in both form and function? Not quite. However, to conventional wisdom’s surprise and delight, Monogram proves ...
