What does a 2007 issue of Domino have in common with a room you'd design today? More than you'd think.
In this episode, I dig through a stack of old design magazines — Domino, Flea Market Style, House Beautiful, Veranda, and Country Living, spanning 2007 to 2019 — and ask the question I find myself returning to constantly: what still holds up?
We talk suzanis, suzanis (yes, still), the case for painting all four walls instead of just one, why the humble breakfast nook deserves a comeback, and what the best white kitchens actually have in common. I share my ongoing plinth hunt, make a confession about Country Living being my Bible in the late '90s, and make a gentle but firm plea for the death of the accent wall.
If you've got a pile of old tear sheets, a half-finished vignette, or a dining room that could use some bookshelves — this one's for you.
In this episode:
What Domino got right about sustainability back in 2007
Minimalism vs. maximalism — and why neither is ever really "out"
The case for the jewel box room (powder rooms, butler's pantries, and going all out in small spaces)
Layered window treatments, bed canopies, and other things that keep coming back around
Why I think the accent wall's days are numbered
Treating your kitchen and bathroom like actual rooms
