I think I just became a maximalist. More stuff, more color, more pattern, more aged finishes. You’ll see why as you scroll through this week’s goody bag of Instagram shots from the West’s best designers and architects.

My garage. #sodomino

1. This shot was the moment I fell in love with Los Angeles designer and stylist Shayne Blue. So freaking good. She’s also behind the decorating in Fitz and Tantrums bassist Joe Karnes’ place.

2. I don’t know where the team from Seattle design/build firm JAS are right now, but I want them to join them there.

Lovely shot @timothyragan and I set up yesterday @nickeykehoe. #BorgeMogensen #redleather #japanesetonsu #notwithoutmydaughter

3. Stylist and designer CJ Sandgren has me pining over a leather chair. CJ just joined the team at Nickey Kehoe in L.A. and I can’t wait to see more of his work with them.

Like a ship in a bottle: @thomaskeller_com and his incredible team @_TFL_ will be working out of this temporary kitchen, outfitted with all of the equipment from the original kitchen, until the permanent kitchen and courtyard are completed. The temp kitchen leverages our expertise in interim uses (see: @proxysf ) to shorten the fallow period of time that comes with the territory of extensive renovation.

4. The French Laundry’s temporary kitchen looks like it has a pretty lush view. Thanks to Berkeley-based architecture firm Envelope A+D for the sneak peek!

If I didn’t think we had mold lurking behind this paper I would so leave it in the boys bathroom. #NewHouse #OldRadWallPaper

5. San Francisco-based interior designer Cecily Mendell‘s got some groovy wallpaper in her new place. Hope it inspires something equally cool in its place.
