Jamie Herzlinger

Our favorite David Sheflin, recently introduced us to the lovely interior designer Jamie Herzlinger. While looking through Jamie's beautiful portfolio of work, it is clear she has a natural sense of working texture, geometry and graphic lines into a space.

We're also finding her blog to be an interesting read, chock full of practical design advice. We love her take on how to bring out the best in your floors, ceilings and walls --and future clients, take note, she's a licensed general contractor to boot! A peek at Jamie's past projects below.

Interior of the amazing Hollywood Regency-style Casa Blanca house she designed and oversaw construction herself! Check out the video on this house here.

Jamie's own home (Solano house) is an exemplary example of her beautiful aesthetic.

The Daily Jhuzz: Mediterranean blue

This warm, Sunday sun has us thinking of azure waters, white-washed walls and a hefty serving of gold jewelry against bronzed skin. Share the fantasy...

The Daily Jhuzz: Gilt Hollywood Regency mirror, Asian modern lacquered console table, c.1960's Murano lamps, brass jack, Blenko large vase, Blenko sun decanter, Italian glass decanter, and c.1950's stools with new upholstery.

Design crush: Kelly Wearstler

As a child reared on tv, I find the lack of it at home is generally a godsend -- but hey, that's what the internet is for, huh? I usually miss out on the latest pop-culture shows, unless a friend updates me on "who's in, or who's out," or I catch a Dancing with the Stars bonding-marathon with my mom. When Top Design came out, I missed the boat on the drama, why so-and-so is always juxtaposing seating at an angle to the area rugs, and so on.... So you see, I was robbed of the weekly going ons of Top Design judge, Kelly Wearstler, and her high fashion ensembles.

During a bout of web surfing on saint verde digest, I came upon Ms. Wearstler's website, and was blown away at all the dramatic, interior stylings -- most especially the residential projects. Over the top, yes, but there's definitely a clear voice talking here. I find it beautifully comes together. It's like a big, bubbly stew: equal parts 70's and art deco, a unique dash of The Fountainhead meets neoclassicism (I know!), pinch of Cy Twombly, a long walk on the beach, some Mid-Century Modern, and a healthy helping of Hollywood glam. Whew, an interesting mix of ingredients, but it works.
