DEMYSTIFYING DESIGN

Your home is a TEMPLE, and we want to be the high priests.

A Big Welcome to “Weenie the Wallpaper-Loving Wonder Dog!”

September 23rd, 2011 by Demystifying Design


Weenie!

Weenie looks askance at a new sofa from the Kreiss Collection. Weenie thinks the Kreiss Collection is oversized, overpriced, and ugly. "The Kreiss Collection sucks, I hate it," says Weenie. She prefers furniture from Baker or Hickory Chair. Weenie is frightened by white leather, beige, boring, and anything with too many ruffles. She will pee on the aforementioned ruffles.

Gang:

We are starting a new column called “Weenie the Wallpaper-Loving Wonder Dog,” so get ready. Weenie, in case you didn’t know, hails from High Point, North Carolina, the so-called “furniture capital of the world.”

Weenie is very design-oriented and loves to peruse fabrics and comment upon whether a certain Farrow & Ball shade is spot-on or spot-off.

So get ready for Weenie’s comments, thoughts, and musings. She is going to turn the design world upside down: She will lick what she likes, and pee upon what she does not.

Weenie’s Likes:

-Ikat fabric

-Designer’s Guild

-Smythson of Bond Street

-Farrow & Ball: “J’adore,” says Weenie. “I like it like my tongue likes a good dog treat.”

-Fortnum & Mason

Weenie’s Dislikes:

-Four Seasons Hotels: “Boring!,” says Weenie.

-Gilt furniture: “Too nouveau Russian,” barks Weenie.

-White ceilings

-Oversized televisions: “I prefer proportion,” notes Weenie.

A warm welcome to our newest columnist, Weeenie, aka Space Monkey Alien.

    Weenie – you are adorable! I look forward to hearing your reviews. I live with four dogs so maybe you can give me some designing for dogs advice! :-)
