I baked the cake and decorated cookies for a 30th birthday party.

It was so exciting because I got to work with my favorite colors: black, white and gold. What an elegant soirée; the guests arrived at the cocktail party dressed up in the semi-monochromatic color scheme. The theme was shown through various elements – gold Chiavari chairs, sparkly sugar rimmed champagne flutes, textured gold frosted decanters full of wine on tray tables, sequin tablecloth, a mid-century modern bar set-up, Kate Spade gold foil confetti coasters, old gold party ware, dainty looking hors d’oeuvres and pretty mini desserts just to name a few.

Elements in Doug Aitken’s house in Venice, California, blur the line between inside and out. “The goal was to create a warm, organic modernism that’s also perceptual and hallucinatory.”

Silk-screened walls mimic hedges growing outside the windows; the corner window is amazing. Microphones integrated into the foundation of the house amplify the sounds of the moving earth and sea. Stairs can be musically played as well as tables that alternate as sonic tables that can be played like a xylophone. A kaleidoscopic staircase is constructed of angled mirrors, reflecting the sun’s movement illuminating the interiors.
