I was leafing through the March 2008 issue of
House Beautiful when I saw a photo of chairs on a stair landing that reminded me of the new
Williams-Sonoma Home store in New York. When I looked closer, one of the names of the designers, David DeMattei, sounded familiar. Then I realized that he is the group president for
Williams-Sonoma and I actually met him at the opening party last fall. The home has a Williams-Sonoma feeling but is not a literal translation of the store. I'm swamped with work so for more information, you can check out the details at
House Beautiful online. Bon Weekend!
