A great way to update your home’s interiors and keep your space looking new and fresh is to constantly re-arrange your existing furniture and this is an idea that interior designer Nate Berkus wholeheartedly embraces. I’m a huge Nate Berkus fan…I’ve paid close attention to his personal house tours on the Oprah show and have saved all of the editorials featuring his homes over the years. Needless to say I was beyond delighted to pick up the September issue of Elle Decor and see Nate’s Chicago apartment on the cover looking more refined than ever. In honor of his home’s…

A couple of weeks ago my apartment suffered an unfortunate calamity. A neighbor on the fourth floor of my building had a radiator pipe burst causing ridiculous amounts of water to flood his apartment and subsequently ALL the apartments below it…including mine. I wasn’t home when it happened. My bedroom ceiling and walls were severely damaged and starting to cave by the time I discovered the mess and my year-old mattress which I loved to death was soaked all the way down to the box spring (had to throw it out and buy a new one). The saddest part is …
Did anyone catch yesterday’s Oprah? If you did then you saw Billy Joel’s very young wife giving Oprah viewers a tour of she and her husband’s super chic, Nate Berkus-designed townhouse in Manhattan’s West Village. TO DIE FOR! You can see a glimpse in the photos above and below. The main floor has a wide open floor plan and the living room, dining room and kitchen all flow together perfectly. One piece in the home I really love is a black lacquered antique buffet cabinet reveals a surprising hot pink interior when you open its doors. Such a great idea. …

I came across this photo of Nate Berkus and Brian Atwood earlier today. What a hot couple! The Interior designer extraordinaire/Oprah show darling and the talented footwear designer/Bally Creative Director have been an item for the past year. This photo was taken on March 6th at the Bally store on Madison Ave in New York where the pair was celebrating the arrival of Atwood’s first spring collection for Bally. They look like a match made in design heaven!…
So today I spent the morning cleaning and organizing some of my closets. I live in a decent sized (by New York standards) 1 bedroom apartment with four closets but, seriously folks, I’m having a major clothes storage crisis! My front hall and linen closets are just fine but the closet in my bedroom is way too small. Then I have this ridiculously designed extra closet in my hallway that has a garment rod but is too shallow for an adult sized hanger to fit inside it. Actually, I could fit an adult hanger inside but then the door wouldn’t …
Nate and the crew that helped the Hale-Jo family build their dream house.
On yesterday’s Oprah show cutie pie interior designer Nate Berkus worked his magic Extreme Home Makeover style for a family who’s overcrowded suburban Seattle home was in need of a top to bottom renovation. In just 15 days Nate gutted, partially demolished and rebuilt the house from the inside out, opening up its floorplan and even adding a second master suite level to the 1960s former ranch style home. Nate also enlisted the help of his friend, Australian landscape architect Jamie Durie, to completely redesign the home’s …
