A High-Style Bachelor Pad in Austin, Tx with Architectural Digest

I’m excited to share designer James Saavedra’s home in Austin, TX with you. This 750-square-foot condominium is the ultimate example of small space chic!! He’s filled the space with the most amazing art and vintage finds, namely the living room coffee table which is a beautiful piece from John Saladino . The finished product was the fruit of a collaborative styling effort. I incorporated layered elements throughout the home to add dimesion and one of my favorite ways to add depth were the beautiful frames along the kitchen counter to give the space a little structure. The immensely creative James, who’s also an artist, created the black and white drawings in those frames upon my request—the night before the shoot. Improvising: it’s one of the secrets to nailing the perfect shot!!!

A Conversation with ReStyle Source and Alyssa Rosenheck

I'm excited to share my recent Q&A with ReStyle Source, an online destination for discovering local talent in remodeling, design, photography, and more. In it, I share my current insta-crushes, favorite design details, styles I'd love to grow into trends, and entrepreneurial advice. When it comes to discussing my business and day-to-day life, I can't begin the conversation without sharing my mantra: Start living your passion! The moment I left my former career and picked up a camera, I finally felt like I was living and working with purpose. Try it—contentedness looks good on you.

Lofty Goals featured on MYDOMAINE Xx

You know me, white and neutrals are everything to me. But every now and then a shoot comes along that causes me to crave a little color. Kendall Simmon’s eclectic loft space is a prime example. Details that grab your attention like Cobain hanging out by a bright tomato orange bar cart call for a double take. Bold stripes on floor rugs, bright and color framed art, and the combination of eclectic furniture all work together to make a space that is uniquely Kendall.

As always, it’s the story behind the home that moves me. In pursuit of a larger life, Kendall and her husband sought smaller space. Leaving the suburbs behind, they downsizing to make room for more travel and bigger experiences. If her one of a kind loft is any indicator of the beauty, travel, and experiences that await her, well, there are beautiful and creative things ahead for Kendall.

Thank you, Kendall, for letting me into your most precious space your home. And thanks to MyDomaine for highlighting this exceptional space.
