August Black Hearts Rachel Zoe

Posted September 22nd, 2011 by AB

Ah, New York how we love you so. Even though we sit on the interior design side of things we obviously still appreciate good design. And what better place to look than New York’s Fashion Week? We’ve been busy attending the shows and have to admit, we’re obsessed with Rachel Zoe’s Fall 2011 line. Together with Pottery Barn’s holiday collection, it’s exciting to fall in love with not only the changing leaves but also bold colors, fine tailoring and high high heels.

 

 

 

 

 


In Living Color with Anna Spiro & Madeline Weinrib

Posted August 17th, 2011 by AB

In our fast paced lives its hard to find time to stop and smell the roses. And as you sit here reading this blog I doubt you’re smelling anything other than your Starbucks coffee thats propped next to your MAC book Pro. But don’t stress. Thats where we come in. Were bringing you more color than any old boring garden flowers. Interior designer and color enthusiast Anna Spiro believes that color can make nearly everything absolutely beautiful and we have to agree. Take note and paint your world with these Anna Spiro inspired fabric designs from the one and only Madeline Weinrib.

 

 

 

 

 


New York’s Secret Oasis- W Hotel

Posted August 3rd, 2011 by AB

Looking to make a scene? We at August Black Home found some exquisite dresses from Net-A-Porter that’ll send every paparazzi within flashing distance scrambling for their cameras.  Why stop there? We think your home should be as fabulous as you are and apparently so does the W Hotel in New York City. This luxurious, not so little, oasis in the famous concrete jungle shows that inspiration can come from anywhere.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Were Watching Hublot Watches:

Posted July 26th, 2011 by AB

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but when it comes to Hublot, theres no debate. Using their keen eye to perfect every facet of these stunning watches we can’t help but notice the correlation between these sparkling works of art and some bright ideas courtesy of Lighting by Gregory. We’re not wasting any time infusing traditional and modern design as we work with our new client at 55 Thompson.

Hublot scores with their collaboration with the reknowned soccer club Manchester United creating this winning timepiece. The King Power Red Devil rebels against the norm with its daring design. A feature we loved enough to use with this lighting MVP.

 

 

 

 

 

 


Have a Winning Hand with Jack Spade

Posted July 20th, 2011 by AB

Are you ready for Jack? Jack Spade that is. Co-founded by fashion designer, fellow New Yorker, and Kate Spade’s very own hubby, Andy Spade, Jack Spade is giving you something to feel lucky about. Blending practicality with a modern twist, these goods will undoubtedly leave you in the winner’s circle. We’ve paired Jack Spade with accessories by Gabriella Sarlo for a hand that’s sure to win at our client in The District.

Add a twist to your standard suit with this intricately detailed pocket square and make sure all systems are a go by peering into this sleek mirror before your early AM meeting.

Who says messenger bags are out? Not us! We love this two toned, leather and linen bag so much we’re using these wall sconces to make a statement in the entryway of 111 Fulton.

This Friday loosen that tie, kick your feet up on this smooth velvet bench and take a slug of your favorite bourbon from this hard to miss flask.

Its been said that orange is the new black and that theory rings true with us. Vintage sports car connoisseurs will love this monza leather cardholder almost as much as we love this tufted Salvo chair, well…almost.

Looking for a bit more color in your collection? How about this waxwear computer file case? Need a dollop more? That’s just what you’ll get from Sarlo’s “Dollop” painting. We’re ordering 2!
