Is anyone else totally inspired by the interiors of Anthropologie stores? I've always favored their clothes and housewares, but even just walking into their retail locations is an experience. I love that every store is different -- each location has its own interior stylist/visual artist, going way beyond the "merchandising" at regular retail that follows a prescribed map of where and how items should be laid out. Without fail, I gather inspiration from the walls, ceiling, music, floors, etc. each time I visit Anthro. Just check out the latest installation at the store in my 'hood...
Cloud sculpture made out of paper plates...amazing! Reminded me instantly of the brilliant paper plate chandelier that Nathan Thomas created for the dining room in his winning townhouse on Bravo's Top Design...
Both of these are definitely going on my Flattery Board (or Inspiration for Imitation Board)...
