Southwest In My Soul


After living in the beautiful state of Arizona for two years, I developed a deep love for "Southwest"style. The rugged materials, layers of textiles and mounds of color were so much fun to pull together for clients. We did not in Arizona long enough for me to go all out and design a  hacienda for ourselves, (which is probably a good thing because I would probably have some totem pole sitting in our living room right now) but there are elements of southwest influence that will stay with me forever, here are a few of my faves.

Otomi patterns:

Equestrian prints:

Spanish Mirrors:

Agate +  Southwest Abstract Landscape Paintings:

Suzani's and Navajo Pillows:


Ikat lamps and pillows:

Turquoise Beads:

And of course, the sunsets...and the margaritas and salsa...but definitely the sunsets!
