Hey Stratos, not “trendy” per se, but ubiquitous, or seeming to be a requirement in every modern lover’s home.

I do not think the Barcelona day bed is trendy… it is a timeless elegant piece of furniture and always enjoye seeing it in various homes. As for the Tom Ford book… I have it too!!! And it is prominently displayed in my IKEA Expedit bookcase, having a partition all on its own! Ha ha.

That Helmut Newton book (Sumo) is one huge mamma of a book…

Becky,

When I saw the pictures I didn’t really read the title of the post and all I could think of was “man, Becky should add this to her design drinking games.”

Erik, what a small world! If it wasn’t the same interior decorator, it’s quite a coincidence. I had no idea that so few copies of the book even existed when I wrote the post. That’s rather amazing to me!

Thanks for sharing!

Hello again,

The interior designer on this project brought the Helmut Newton book as a potential prop. I stuck it in this photo because we needed something on the left side of the picture. Who knew it was being photographed somewhere else for the same issue. I think only 1500 copies of this book was ever printed?
