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.

Auböck Exhibition

Just found out (via Hoping for Happy Accidents) the gorgeous New York City gallery shop, Mondo Cane, has a show of furnishings & objects by Austrian Modernist, Carl Auböck, on exhibit through June 19th. The presentation looks amazing! If you're in NYC, we highly suggest a look-see. Otherwise if you're in San Francisco, you can get a dose of Auböck by checking out our sweet, burl walnut table in our showroom (shown below).

The Gibson Eye

Grant K. Gibson that is! The noted interior designer takes C Magazine on an excursion of his favorite San Francisco boutiques and galleries, with Monument included on the tour. We were pleasantly surprised to see our photo in the opening spread. Smiles all around!

Check it out in C Magazine's May 2010 issue on stands now. Note Ellen Pompeo definitely looking radiant in yellow. We like the cover style coordination with our brass, white and neutrals display. Spring/Summertime indeed!

Photos by Alex Farnum. View more beautiful pics of this story on Alex's blog post, and check out more design journaling on Grant's blog, as well.

Sam's House Tour on Apartment Therapy

Apartment Therapy recently did a House Tour on our very own Sam's Victorian flat. They did a lovely write up, and the feature turned out quite snazzy. We are right chuffed! Sam has a knack for mixing a dash of slick Mid-Century Modern here, with a bit of Hollywood Regency there, peppered with unusual vintage art finds, and antique objects -- all curated in a cohesive flow. I know, sounds methodical, but Sam will just tell you he's been collecting since his first baby steps.

Check out the feature on Apartment Therapy here. For more eye-candy, check out our Flickr slideshow, along with some outtake pics below.




Living room seating area


Coffee table display. Swarovski crystallized antler, made by a friend, plays nice with brass, quartz, zebra and bugs. Note the cast-wood like texture on the table base.


Living room view. Mixed metals meets natural materials.


Art corner. An amazing coiled wood sculpture, C.Jere owl, figure studies and the sweetest German Sheperd face.


Cocktails anyone?


Front window display. Ceramic, paint, glass, wood and shell make a nice tableau.


A wee turtle shell


A very distinguished hound


Paul Frankl dining table looks on the 1950's Baker sideboard with lamps to die.


Sideboard owl & forest creature collection, and more lamp love.


The little Bertoia corner that could, with the mini Saarinen marble-topped side table holding it down.


Amazing vintage pen & ink drawing. Very tattoo art!


Criminal sheeting meets lacquered headboard meets colored abstraction.
