Santa Monica-Street Surfing @nancy_fire
Quick trip to LA to remind this New Yorker that street life in Santa Monica is a bit more chill than in NYC!
Always great to get my LA fix and reality check while visiting the west coast…my type A personality is quickly downgraded to type B.
Excited to share that HGTV HOME was awarded “Best Corporate Brand Program” at LIMA this year and yesterday on Instagram we hit 50K in followers! Proud to be affiliated with such a creative and dedicated team at Scripps Networks Interactive and of course all our HGTV HOME Partners! As Design Director of HGTV HOME, as well as Creative Director and Founder of Design Works International NYC, I am blessed to be working with such creative, talented and dedicated individuals!❤️
What a creative way to start your day at IKEA’s “Moments About Food” in NYC! Honored to be invited to this creative and inspirational event with its focus on food, food sourcing, product introductions, tips on organic farming, canning and urban farming on your own rooftop!
Amazed by IKEA’s newest product introductions that are “Trend Right” and “Eco Savvy” featuring substrates like cork, bamboo, various woods and woven fabrics! Colors are updated and fresh with many combinations to pick from.
IKEA’s newest “Section Kitchen Selection” is brilliant. Each drawer is a personalized space for all your kitchen gadgets as well as food storage, dinnerware, drinkware and utensils. Shown in a fantastic green finish, this kitchen is a vertical masterpiece! No more reaching for items that are too tall to grab..this is a kitchen with maximum bandwidth!
Be sure to check out IKEA’s newest catalog and product in stores and help them celebrate an amazing new introduction of some of the most innovative and clever product ranges I have viewed in a while. From innovative placemats with i-phone pockets to organic new jams, cork outdoor ensembles and beautiful textiles….you will be updating your home in no time!
Oh and a special “shout out” to Katie Lee for sharing some great food tips and yummy treats!
HAPPINESS……is when your favorite store in the universe is a client and that client printed fabric in your studio and now the fabric we printed is in their beautiful display windows on Broadway in NYC! Love ABC Carpet and Home💕💚.
One of my all time favorite quotes…makes me stop, think and slow down to remember what really matters! L.I.F.E.

After capturing this image I could only imagine that I was living in a mid-evil village back in time or on a film set…only to come to terms with my reality of being on the corner or 97th and Amsterdam in NYC!
Just love this city…they say it’s “The City That Never Sleeps” and I truly know why. It’s not just about the “Action” in places like Times Square or the busy streets of NYC…its about that magical moment when day turns into night and the city takes on a new form of energy…its like a symphony of lights between the sky and the city. My favorite time of day in my favorite city to go for a “Night Walk in Central Park”.
