Miller Me!
I am inspired by Sarah Richardson. I think the way she mixes patterns, textiles, new, and old pieces is genius. I love her color palates and always love her bathrooms! My favorite house is her farmhouse (Sarah’s house Season 3). I love Eames because it lends itself to eclectic decorating and taste. I can see a classic Eames rocking chair hanging out next to a tiger-maple bowfront dresser! I would DIE to have anything EAMES!
Lauren says
MILLER ME!
I’ve always loved the look and feel of mixing a bit of industrial/modern elements with some antiquey/cottagey accents. A concrete floor with simple/modern dining table & an old chandelier = perfection!
Chris says
Miller Me!!! Definitely Frank Lloyd Wright because he pretty much “invented” the greatroom concept in his homes…a wonderful gathering place for family.
Karly Watkins says
Miller Me! I would love to have an Alexander Calder style mobile in our house. Oh and an Eames chair =)
Eadie says
MILLER ME!
I love Harry Bertoia’s designs. I have been in love with the Bertoia Bird chair ever since experiencing one at my friend’s house when I was a child. Of course, I had no idea it had a “name” until later when I was an adult. I loved to curl up in the nest-y seat of that chair! I will definitely have one, one day!
Lisa @ Fit in the Midwest says
MILLER ME! I love the artist Raoul Dufy and would love to own a painting by him.
Kirstin says
MILLER ME!
Jessica A says
Miller me!!!!!!!
Kelly says
Miller me! I love Eames, Saarinen, Bertoia, all the mid-century modern designers! I think they look best when mixed in a cozy environment, instead of showcased in the home like a museum! I am moving to Los Angeles, my 1st apartment on my own out of college, and could really use some new furniture! Fingers crossed!
Alex H says
MILLER ME! I’m a new fan of Eames but have been a longtime fan of Frank Gehry.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen something by Ralph Lauren’s home collection that I didn’t love :)
jessG says
MILLER ME!!!! I LOVE LOVE Charley Harper – mid-century artist…his artwork compliments Miller and Frank Lloyd Wright. He’s a local artist (from Cincinnati) but his artwork is internationally recognized…it’s charming, witty and whimsical…think you would love it! Our son LOVES his children’s books

MILLER ME! My life is dominated by photographs. It would be too hard to pick just one that I admire. Also, Grace Bonney. She’s the best.
April says
MILLER ME! I’d love to have an original by Jean-Michel Basquiat he started out as a graffiti artist in New York City in the late 1970s and evolved into an acclaimed Neo-expressionist and Primitivist painter by the 1980s (thanks Wikipedia) I saw a documentary on him years ago and I was hooked.

Miller me! An Eames chair in my home would be a dream come true!
KayAlex says
Miller me! I was fortuante enough to have a Henry Miller Aeron chair at work, but our office design consultant told my boss to get rid of it because she didn’t like the color. Huh? Fortunately, I got to take it home.
Crystal says
Miller Me! I love Monet and Van Gogh!
Carly says
MILLER ME!
I have always been drawn to Edward Hopper paintings.
Christina says
MILLER ME! I dunno if I have a favorite architect. I fall somewhere between loving the funcationalist designs of the mid-century and the woodsy-details of Art Nouveau.
Carollyn says
Miller me! Frank Lloyd Wright. Such beauty in everything he does. His Waterfall House is my all time favorite.
Kelly Fair says
Miller Me!!
Jasmine says

Jenny says
MILLER ME!! Frank Lloyd Wright for sure; need to schedule a trip to FallingWater.
Janice says
Miller Me! I love walking through Frank Lloyd Wright houses – so serene and natural. I’d love to have a house designed by him.
Erin says
MILLER ME!
BONUS QUESTION: I went to the Stein exhibit at the MoMA in SF last year and Matisse’s “Lady with a Hat” captured my imagination. The painting has inspired me to experiment with color, something that intimidated me before. Art had never affected me like that before!
And yes, I’m still swooning over the idea of having a real designer (Eames no less!) piece in my home!
Spenser says
MILLER ME! I’m signing up on my husbands behalf – he is a huge Herman Miller fan and would be beside himself if we won!
Mollie Armour says
Miller Me!
I’m an Egon Schiele fan all the way!
Rebecca says
Miller me!
I have to say Frank Lloyd Wright, even thought that was your example. I live in Wisconsin so we’ve got a lot of his inspiration around here. I don’t love it because of his local ties though, I just love the clean lines.
Rachel says
Miller Me! Please!!
SarahRamirez says
Miller Me! I dont have any fancy pants stuff but I sure would like some!
