Over the past few years, while visiting our home in Trancoso, Brazil, we have gotten to know many of the people that work and live there. Whenever we entertain, be it a dinner party or an impromptu beach BBQ, we invite neighbors, storekeepers, people we have met on the beach, as well as friends we [...]
I took the girls on a shopping trip in our town of Trancoso last week. We found some great treasures. You never know what the corner store or local boutique will have. The simplicity of this lovely store highlights the locally produced clothing and house wears. I usually buy sarongs rather than towels for the beach – so much [...]
Our house in Trancoso, Brazil is the perfect antidote to life in NYC.

We had no time and even less money to renovate this house in the Hamptons—hello white paint and imagination. In this retro gym in Hoboken, NJ we wanted the [...]
Art is a part of every project we do, no matter the size or scope—we cannot live without it! We are fortunate to get to work with amazing artists and craftspeople and here we will introduce you to them, ann Carringtin. Beware—she will blow your mind. This is the first piece we bought from Ann, [...]
So now that we are getting to know each other, we would like to invite you to our house in the country. This is the weekend escape, the anti-NYC. Open the door and kids are free. We have moved so many times, but this house is our constant. If you took the tour of our [...]
