Christopher Kennedy Showhouse
01/July/2016 Filed in: Designers | Showhouses
When Justin Shaulis, New York City based interior designer and trained architect, approached me with the idea to assist him in sourcing vintage pieces for a showhouse I jumped at the chance. Justin and I first met through shared social media contacts so when we finally met face to face IRL (in real life) it looked as though we had been friends forever. Case in point: Justin posted a pic of the two of us to his Facebook page and with a couple minutes received a call from him Mom asking why she had never heard of me! Sometimes you really do click with people. That was why I knew I'd be successful in understanding Justin's vision for the Guest Suite at the Christopher Kennedy Compound Palm Springs Showhouse, February 2016. At the time, I was living on the South Shore of Boston and had lucked into a few mid century homes. I sourced a pair of original Florence Knoll armchairs, a pair of Modeline table lamps, various brass accessories, a concrete torso sculpture and a pair of rock crystal and quartz decorated table lamps. The shopping was intense and I knew there was a deadline. We made it, just down to the wire with the shipper, and Justin installed everything in the Guest Suite to rave reviews. Here are a few pics…
