Find Your Next Home Treasure at Moo Roo Renew

 Moo Roo Renew is full of beautifully restored treasures like this couch: Auntie Marnie.

Auntie Mamie started off a little down and out, have spent her better days in a life of beige. After a little love from designer Mary Norton and her team of local Charleston artisans, things changed. Auntie Marnie soon became the bright vision she was born to be!

Auntie Marnie boasts a beautiful soft turquoise cotton-velvet upholstery that compliments her hand-painted gold tipping beautifully. Pair Auntie Marnie with bright pillows and your favorite throw for the ultimate luxurious experience.

A Look at SieMatic Charleston's 2014 Kitchen Updates

It’s been 5 years since the original installation was completed at SieMatic Charleston.  That showroom won them the Kitchen & Bath Business magazine Showroom of the Year award for 2009 (Link to KB&B Article).  However five years is a long time in the luxury furniture industry so the innovators at SieMatic have switched things up. Visit SieMatic Charleston to see their showroom updates in person.

This first display in the front window is very modern in layout with a long rectangular island in Agate grey lacquer and natural walnut.The hood is a ceiling mounted unit and cooktop a flush-mounted induction, to keep the furniture sleek and less “kitcheny”.

The long countertops are in a ceramic material which replicates basalt. There is really no reason to consider natural stone in place of this incredibly strong, impervious and eco-friendly material. This countertop is a SieMatic exclusive, and comes in several colors and finishes.

Keeping Up With King St. From the Charleston Mercury: Go On Up, It's Worth the Effort

Keeping Up With King Street

This week I visited Ann Reinert’s Yellow Door Gallery on King Street, just upstairs from the Reinert LePrince Fine Art Gallery at 179 King. I wanted to see the MJ Green archival metal prints featured at the last 2nd Sunday on King Street, before they were all gone. Green’s unusual treatment of black and white captured my attention wasn’t printed on metal, “The Bridge 1” is a dramatic black and white photograph on paper featuring the Ravenel Bridge boldly shot from below. One might think a bridge is a bridge, but ours has a way of playing with light so much so that it looks different every day. MJ caught it looking ethereal. She obviously loves it too.

The Yellow Door Gallery has other wall art, some by Reinert’s famous impressionist husband Rick, and those bold colors and textures are expertly presented with wearable, tasteful items like jewelry, scarves and even bath products. You can tell Ann is having fun with this place. Vintage-inspired hand crafted jewelry by Robin Goodfellow Designs features colorful swirls of crystals, rhinestones, and pearls along with glass and metal beads. Rick Hunter, Scott Simmons, and Otter Rotolante contribute handblown and torchworked glass in a rainbow of colors that float invisibly on window shelves for a striking effect.

Spoleto Festival Welcomes Media to Stop In and Stay Awhile

As part of the preparations surrounding the 36th Annual Spoleto Festival USA, Charleston interior designer, Michael Mitchell, was selected to design this year’s Society Lounge and Press Room, located off the oval room of the Historic Middleton-Pinckney House (c. 1796).  

In the tradition of true Southern hospitality, the inviting Society Lounge and Press Room was designed to both stimulate and relax the senses. Mitchell brings his trademark flair and vitality to the space while maintaining the integrity of the room’s serene and historic bearing. Partnering with Baker on many of the furnishings, Mitchell deftly mixes contemporary components creating the perfect foil to the smooth, rounded walls and the Neoclassical architectural details.
