To all our friends and family far and wide, Happy Thanksgiving!

We were surrounded by friends and family here in Paris this weekend for a Franco-American Thanksgiving Feast. I’m never happier than when my house is full of people I love, food, and booze. Here are some pics of the look:

Thanksgiving

Josh Hickey — Wed, 16 Nov 2011 08:22:46 +0000

Well, it’s that time again! I’ve started the countdown to our annual Paris Thanksgiving event, which is always super lavish and always one of the happiest days of the year. Our travel schedules have pushed our date forward a week, and this Saturday a fine turkey will meet its destiny here in the 10th arrondissement. I was looking back at last year’s pics as I am considering the new look for this year…Check it out here

Stay tuned for the full story! I’m off to start the cranberry sauce…

The Reverend’s Rhuby

Josh Hickey — Fri, 04 Nov 2011 14:48:44 +0000

On a recent trip to Philadelphia (the greatest American city), I made a stop into the amazing store/gallery Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction on N 3rd street in Old City. They were showing a series of incredible watercolor paintings by the local artist, Reverend Michael Alan…They reminded me of the amazing Frakturs by the Pennsylvania Dutch in the Winthertur Museum’s collection I had just seen the day before. I love the poetic rendering of neo-classical Americana. These paintings really capture the chic American aesthetic of Philadelphia.

Today, two arrived from Philly to Paris. Merci Rev Michael!

Check out his website to see all the amazing things he is doing: reverendmichaelalan.com

The note is as beautiful as the paintings themselves!

The Details

Josh Hickey — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 08:02:37 +0000

It’s all about the details….Here are some detail shots from a Paris pied-à-terre I’m working on now. The project has an open deadline, so the project has become a real laboratory of detail where I’m able to create a pretty complex collage of materials, and as the time passes, there are always new fresh seasonal flowers everywhere, (even in the bathroom I’m painting…)

Triangle

Josh Hickey — Tue, 04 Oct 2011 09:13:53 +0000

My partner in crime and I refer to the past few years of hip style as the “triangle” style. A certain set of today’s youth are marked by the triangle in the logos of their favorite brands, their tattoos, and their asymmetric hairstyles. Why the triangle? There are many theories….

Then comes along a triangular visionary, who pushes the work beyond triangle into superb. I’m praying for a new client for whom I may purchase this divine piece of furniture by the super architect/designer Rafael de Cardenas. I’d love to put one in the center of a great classic french room, and make it the bar. Perhaps with a marble side table just in front to one side, with some gold candlesticks and a big amethyst…What I most love about this piece is the ombré/gradated color which has been my obsession since we designed ombré wallpaper for our wine bar project here in Paris.

Indian Summer

Josh Hickey — Mon, 03 Oct 2011 11:01:59 +0000

It’s a real Indian summer here in Paris and the dahlias are in still full bloom in the most fiery autumn colors. I took this picture yesterday in a residential project I’m finishing. The sun was streaming through the open window and the interior just seemed like a painting.

The dahlias were placed on an amazing hand painted Moroccan side table with a very cool antique style cup I got from the Benaki Museum in Athens, and a vintage Fornasetti opera tray….all new favorites for the new season.
