Windsor Smith for Arteriors 6

I’ve been a longtime admirer of designer Windsor Smith’s work so when I heard she was developing a line of lighting in collaboration with Arteriors, I knew I’d love it! The new collection features an assortment of furniture, lighting and decorative accessories that showcase Windsor’s brilliant ability to mix modern and traditional aesthetics. Much of the collection was influenced by classical elements of Greek and Roman design and features a variety of materials and finishes including quartz crystal, marble, resin, antique brass and vintage silver. The collection is available online and through Arteriors showrooms in Los Angeles and Dallas. …

Gwyneth

It looks like Gwyneth Paltrow has finally settled into her House of Windsor!  After purchasing the Windsor Smith-designed Bretwood estate in 2012, she finally gives us a tiny glimpse of what she’s done with the place in this cute video with Michael Kors whom she recently launched a fashion collaboration with for her lifestyle site Goop.

Me & Windsor Smith!

Very recently I spent 11 days in LA, doing a little work, having a bit of fun and meeting some pretty amazing people including my design idol Windsor Smith whom I’m pictured with above. Right before I headed to the airport to jet back to New York I was able to spend some time with Windsor for a long chat about her design work and career as well as her newest venture, Room in a Box. I was also lucky enough to get a grand tour of her AMAZING home that we all saw and …

I first learned of Windsor Smith after seeing a feature on her LA home in the August ’07 issue of Domino and I immediately became a fan. The opener of the Domino story included a shot of Smith wearing a colorful shirt, white jeans and classic, cognac colored riding boots and I remember thinking to myself, “she looks like a cool chick.” Her choice of outfit seemed to be a mirror reflection of her design style which epitomizes California cool. In a nutshell, Smith takes traditional furnishings and design elements and injects fresh color and interesting patterns to create interiors …
