  8. On my recent trip to Italy I was fascinated by door knobs.&amp;nbsp; I probably took 200 plus pictures of every door and door knob we came across.&amp;nbsp; I&#39;m going to share one I liked in particular.&amp;nbsp; It has a rock n roll quality that I admire, a little edgy and different.&amp;nbsp; Very inspiring to me I hope to be able to inject a little bit of this in my creative design work.&lt;br /&gt;

Unfortunately I was very much disappointed to learn that the &lt;a href=&quot;http://kipsbay.org/show_info.html&quot;&gt;Kips Bay Decorator Show House&lt;/a&gt;, has been postponed this year until the fall, so I guess I&#39;ll have to go back in the fall. I still had much to see,  great restaurants to eat at, and wonderful shops to wonder through.  I also lived in New York for about a decade and have many friends and family to visit with.  I thought to share some of the pictures with you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot;

In France  Louis XV style gave a great opportunity to Chinoiseri as it blended well with the Rococo style.  Whole rooms were painted with compositions in this style, no court residence was complete without a Chinoserie room.&lt;br /&gt;With the rise of the neoclassic movement, Chinoiserie lost some of it&#39;s popularity. In the world of antique and collectibles, Chinoiserie has remained very popular, and Chinoserie wall covering has become somewhat of a craze.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot;

Classical America (ICA&amp;amp;CA-SCC)&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.habitatla.org/habitat.asp&quot;&gt;Habitat for Humanity&lt;/a&gt; 2010 Multifamily Housing Design Competition, hosted by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.waterworks.com/&quot;&gt;Waterworks&lt;/a&gt; in their beautiful West Hollywood showroom.   Last years&#39; competition was for single family housing,  25 teams submitted designs and the winners were announced at a gala event on July 16th at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.waterworks.com/&quot;&gt;Waterworks&lt;/a&gt;. This year promises to be even better with the award ceremony and gala reception at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.janusetcie.com/&quot;&gt;Janus et Cie&#39;s&lt;/a&gt; showroom in West Hollywood.    The winners will have their designs published in a pattern book to be distributed by Habitat for Humanity.&lt;br /&gt;The goal for this competition has been to inspire neighborly, affordable, sustainable,  housing projects to be built by Habitat for Humanity volunteers. This is a way for the many talented designers and architects in our community to reach out and help provide a well designed, aesthetically pleasing solution to the critical need of safe and decent housing for families in Southern California.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can see some of the winners from last years competition &lt;a href=&quot;http://classicist.blogs.com/weblog/2009/08/affordable-housing-southern-california-chapter-habitat-for-humanity-competition-.html&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;About the ICA&amp;amp;CA-SCC&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The ICA&amp;amp;CA is the leading national non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the practice and appreciation of the classical tradition in architecture and the allied arts.

During the Great Depression this colorful glassware, a cheerful and inexpensive antidote to the dark days of that era, could be purchased at the dime store for about a nickel.
