Oh Debra – Pae and Tom are as amazing as their home is! You’d LOVE them, and visa versa!

Pam, this is a house worth a tour – a real live tour – and it just keeps getting better and better! We are planning a “Garden of Intoxication” on their undeveloped hillside that is going to have a small vineyard in it! FUN!!! (And their front is MAGNIFIQUE!)

Susan C – these are your PEOPLE! Pae works in all media – she recently did the stage curtain at the National Opera House in Oslo, Norway – it was woven out of metallic thread to replicate the look of crinkled aluminum foil – it reflects the seats! What a stunner! You have to look up her work – you’ll die!

Loree you and I are cut from the same cloth, what can I say? And I want to live in this garden, too – isn’t it dreamy! LOVE!!!

Camilla – I ADORE those pavers! They used cardboard pipe forms to set the concrete, and then they sprinkled the glass on the very top and then lightly pressed it in. SOOOO pretty! And leucodendrons are just stupendous plants – I wouldn’t be without them in this climate! Thanks for visiting!!!

Fabulous interior and exterior. I’d like a bit more of that in my home. Love that leucodendron too and those round pavers with the tumbled glass are a great and so-simple idea. Were the glass pieces embedded into the pavers? I couldn’t quite tell.

Haha…while our New Years posts carry a similar message (be yourself boldly! Go forth and garden YOUR way) the pictures you share are decidedly more tasteful than the ones I posted. I would LOVE to live in this garden!

Happy New Year! Here’s to meeting you in person finally in 2011!

Germi–

Every time you post something like this you make me want to move back to southern California. Damn girl, what I wouldn’t give for some hot color in the grey snowy landscape. I think I’m going to paint all of my ironwork ORANGE!

Happy New Year!

Ah, Germi, you give the best tours. I love this house. Those orange chandeliers! The whole dining room, really. It’s both inviting and exciting. I will definitely be looking for the front garden in your book!

Color and whimsy, a library/dining room, a sweet dog, and a house built around a courtyard. I love it!
