Villa San Micheleb

Tucked away on a grassy hilltop sits a magnificent place with views of trees, terrace gardens, Arno Valley and the city of Flor-ence. Villa San Michele has to be seen in or-der to comprehend its exquisiteness. The villa, originally a mon-astery built in the 15th century, is now one of Europe’s most capti-vating and extravagant resorts.

This fabulous structure at Villa San Michele is attributed to Michelan-gelo himself!

KTHE CHATEAU LYON CONTINUED

Notes by: Designer, Ann Shogren

KITCHEN DETAILSOF YOUR DREAMS

The kitchen in Chateau Lyon reminds one of the kitchen in a European castle and at the same time, it’s modern amenities are there to help a chef create the most fabulous cuisine in the world.

QTalk about a hood. Wow! Incredible. This hood with serious copper accents in a work of art. So regal and yet so creative at the same time.

The variety in textures, surfaces, colors and earthy elements in the Chateau Lyon kitchen works to build the old world ambiance and also provides everything necessary for all kinds of cookery.

“I can just imagine opening a bottle of incredible French wine and sipping it in this kitchen while the aroma of fresh French bread fills the air..."

When one delves deeply into a sub-ject or an object, and grows to know it intimately, its essence is revealed in ways unimagined. And it is the role of an artist to take that revealed essence and, coupled with his own vision, create works of art that en-capsulate and communicate it in a way that others may experience it as well.

DESIGNER: ERIN MARTINCOMPANY: MARTIN DESIGNLOCATION: ST HELENA, CA

READ THE THE STORY IN AN UPCOMING ISSUE.

SUBSCRIBENOW u

Discover Erin Martin and her amazing design talent, in an upcoming issue.

E�Erin Martin doesn’t play by the rules.

Her design philosophy is “Go long,

or go home!” Exhibiting gusto and

wit, Erin is unafraid of “grabbing

the bull by the horns” and throwing

herself into the ring, so to speak.

Her interiors are gutsy, edgy, and

confident. Never ordinary, she

utilizes unexpected and innovative

materials with intention and ease.

Her sense of detail and balance is so

pleasantly unexpected, beautifully

bringing together elements of style

that often contrast in texture, color,

or scale. Definitely a West Coast gal,

Erin’s surely inherited THE design

gene. With an architect father, an

interior designer mother, and loads

of culture surrounding her, she was

destined to design.

Clients love that Erin’s interiors are

grounded in warmth and history,

yet seem to have an adventurous

soul. She loves to maintain a sense

QsummerWINES and the sippin’ is easy...

from California to Milano

Henry Jamesonce remarked thatthe two mostbeautiful words in the English language are

“Msummer afternoon.” With the beaux joursof summer upon us, you’ll want to be pouring wines that are, as the French say, gouleyants, easy to drink.

During the warm season, wine temperature, more than any sin-gle factor apart from the wine itself, influences whether a wine is gouleyant or an oenological dog day. Reds if not appropri-ately chilled will explode as picnic-crippling alcohol grenades; whites kept in ice-buckets won’t bloom.

megaYACHTCENTRAL STAIRCASES

As happens when a fine wine is expertly

matched to an epicurean meal, there arises be-

tween a distinctive megayacht’s central staircase

and the vessel’s overall interior design concept

a life-affirming, poetic symbiosis.

Top designers agree that a yacht’s central stair-

case is crucial to the unity and harmony between

the interior’s detailing, functions, atmospheres

and colors. Frank L. Pieterse of Art-Line Inte-

riors in The Netherlands says: “Since our first

project in 1984, we’ve started every design with

a staircase concept. The staircase, quite simply,

is the backbone of yacht interior design.”
