A beautiful setting for an inspiring evening. Last night at @villageeastbyangelika … The premiere of The Weight of It: Hermanx Reimagined reminded us all of the power of creativity and the importance of craft. Produced by @abcstone , the film explores the lifelong creative process of multi-disciplinary designer @markgrattan — from his Ohio roots to studios in NY and Mexico City — and follows the artistic journey of the latest iteration of the Hermanx table, from a quarry in Vermont to a historic theater on the Lower East Side. 👏

On a chilly afternoon last week, I had the pleasure of a very warm welcome at @heirloomxahd , a beautifully curated home & design shop in Westfield, NJ. The visit was to participate in the latest panel discussion hosted for members of AHD Trade, a program created by @ahdandco to support designers in their community. Together with photographer @mikevantassell , marketing pro Val Anderson/@vianderson23 & architect and owner of AHD&Co Anastasia Harrison, we discussed “Getting Your Work Noticed: A Designer’s Guide to Visibility.” From photo shoots and styling to editorial pitches and personal social feeds… we covered it all. Happy to be a part of such a great conversation and always glad to see creatives supporting one another. 💫

RESCHEDULED EVENT:
Designers — want your work to get published, shared, and remembered?
Join us for an upcoming AHD Trade Session focused on what actually drives visibility in today’s design landscape — and what gets overlooked.
Getting Your Work Noticed: A Designer’s Guide to Visibility brings together architectural photographer Mike Van Tassell, writer and editorial director Jennifer Quail, and marketing strategist Valerie Anderson for a candid, practical conversation on how to position and present your projects for press, portfolios, and digital platforms. We’ll cover photography standards, editorial expectations, outreach strategy, and project storytelling — with real guidance you can apply right away.
Guests will also be able to explore a special Phillip Jeffries wallcoverings and Kravet fabrics display installed for the event for added material inspiration.

Last week, I had the pleasure and honor of moderating two talks packed with the brilliant insight of LA creatives at the inaugural Design West Hollywood, an event designed to celebrate 75 years of design excellence in this vibrant neighborhood.
At BoConcept, we traveled around the world to discuss The Evolution of Global Design with Cesar Giraldo of @cesargiraldodesign , Huma Sulaiman of @humasulaimandesign , Ryan Saghian of @ryansaghian , and Richard Landry of @landrydesigngroup , making stops in Brazil, Mexico, Singapore, and beyond to share design inspiration from around the world.
And at MASS Beverly, we stayed hyper local to discuss Iconic LA: The Past, Present and Future of an Architectural Legend. Our intention was to both reflect and inspire as we discussed the cultural and personal significance of what was lost to the wildfires and how to move forward together with Jaime Rummerfield of @saveiconicarchitecture , Adam Hunter of @lacando_org , Andre Herrero of @ch_herrero , Paul McClean of @mccleandesign , Huay Wee of @rioshome , Kelly Schandel of @thinkpure_interiors , David Montalba of @montalbaarchitects , and Jamie Bush of @jamiebushco .
Thanks to my remarkable panelists for their thoughtful contributions, to @wehodesigndistrict and @lacando_org for partnering with @aspiredesignandhome for this amazing event, and to master organizers @kelsdodsonsmith and @jcfujii with support from @nancyganz_ and @eclatprofficial .
