Arriving home yesterday to a teetering tower of mail on my kitchen island actually had a silver lining. Included in the stack of new magazines, I found my copy of the July/August issue of Coastal Living.
Waking up at 1 a.m. this morning (thank you jet lag!) gave me the opportunity to relax and enjoy the article featuring our clients' home.
I love this picture of our clients' guest room, taken by photographer Roger Davies. How could anyone wake up unhappy in such a sunny room?
Roger Davies captured the amazing relationship that our client Jen has with her two daughters.
Thank you to Coastal Living Design Editor Steele Marcoux for this wonderful feature and to stylist Emily Henderson (now the star of the HGTV show "Secrets from a Stylist") for working her styling magic on our clients' home.
THANK YOU to our fantastic clients, Steve and Jen for giving us the opportunity to design their home with them.
To read the article written by Sarah Latta and to see more beautiful images of our clients' home, please check out the July/August issue of Coastal Living.

What a nice welcome home! Makes it worth going through that huge stack of mail after being gone for more than a few days.
Jen and Steve's bedroom is how I picture an oasis to be.
And congratulations, Brooke- 2011 is the year of Giannetti!

Love the idea of two upholstered chairs at the foot of the bed in place of the expected bench or even a settee. Beautifully done!

When I opened my copy of "Coastal Living" and saw "that" painting on the wall...I just knew the Giannetti's had "struck again," and immediately e-mailed Kelly. (You'al were in "hmmm...Tuesday it must be Belgium...") Velvet and Linen is "hot, hot, hot!" franki

Welcome home. I subscribe to Coastal Living so I will savor the feature! You and Steve truly inspire with your eye for design.
I didn't get a chance to comment on your most recent post from Greet's home in Belgium but I have saved the post so that I can go back and re-read it and study each beautiful image. Thanks for taking us on vacation with you and your family.
