CGH Inspired: Show Some Skin!

Written by

We couldn’t help noticing Sara Ruffin Costello’s article this past weekend in the Wall Street Journal.  We have loved Sara  ever since the Domino days and con­tinue fol­lowing all of her great design work and trend spotting!

In this par­tic­ular article, she shares her love of leather and how this inde­struc­tible uphol­stery can with­stand many spills and only gets more beau­tiful with time.  Paying homage to icons such as Albert Hadley, Miles Redd, and Kelly Wearstler,  Sara notes sev­eral notable designs which we had to search out.  Here is what we found…
