Just Looking


It may be considered rude to peer into other people's windows while passing by, but if the curtains are open I see it as an invitation. I don't mean that in a creepy way; I really just like seeing how others decorate their homes. I think it’s a harmless hobby, so as long as the shades are open, I’ll be a browsin’.

Los Angeles based interior designer, MichaelS. Smith, has designed many a room that I would love to lay my eyes on. He is internationally acclaimed and creates a pleasant mélange of modern and traditional, and American and European styles. His portfolio includes both residential and commercial interiors and he is the current decorator of the White House. If fashionista Michelle Obama can get down with his décor, I certainly can too.

His fourth book, Building Beauty: The Alchemy of Design, hits shelves this spring. Just to get a taste of his style, here is a selection of his lush designs:
