Editor's Note
There's something downright magical about the way natural light transforms our rooms throughout the day. I’ve studied these nuances my entire career, like, how the low winter sun casts an ethereal blue gray through a window while summer sunsets powdercoat a room with blush and mauve. So, I know how to harness these effects to alchemize color stories that fit how you envision moving through your space.
My mother taught me that what you first see when you wake can color your entire day. This wisdom still resonates with me, alongside the science and symbolism of color, intelligent components of design, and the moments we long to create and enjoy in our homes.
Why Plein Heir? "Plein" is a nod to the French technique, plein air, which is painting from real life. "Heir" refers to the heirloom quality colors, objects, and styles we'll employ to invite the long lasting memories that will come with everyone who gathers there. Plein Heir is a new way of looking at the art of color for our homes.
Through all the iterations of my work as Artist, Color Curator, Television Host & Producer, Color Marketing & Creative Director, my focus remains on looking carefully at spaces and listening closely to how people want to feel in order to explore color, and all its possibilities, to discover the truest comfort in our homes.
