Did you see Erica Tanov’s home and studio in Issue No. 8 (“Lived-Grandeur,” page 22)?
When I stepped into it a few months ago, I was immediately filled with envy; the same kind of envy that overcomes me when I see a woman with that didn’t-try-at-all hairdo. (You know what I’m talking about.)
Truly, Erica’s home is every bit as gorgeous, ethereal, and effortless as it looks in the article. In the words of Rod Hipskind, the prop stylist for the story, “There’s so much soul in this home. It’s a home that styles itself.” (But not to be a man out of job, he did add some of his own touches to the place during the shoot!)
Kelly Ishikawa, the photographer, and I were overwhelmed by how much detail there was in just Erica’s sitting room alone. We joked that we could have spent a full day simply shooting in that small space. So even though we dedicated 12 pages to Erica’s home and studio in Issue No. 8, here’s what we weren’t able to share with you in the magazine’s print pages.

Gorgeous, just like her clothes. I also like that it’s not perfectly tidy, it looks happily lived in.
The wall is so unevenly painted, so splotchy, and it works so well! I can see what they mean by it styles itself!
it’s all so lovely. it seems like every item or thing is special, and it makes the whole home feel so special as a result.
the dog is the icing on the cake! otherwise, i really love the casual yet intentional decorating that is like nothing else. original. and it works. i want to hang out at your place.
