old school cool

My fabulous cousins Paul and Shannon, the design-duo behind Paul Allen Design Group, recently renovated the old Washington School House Hotel in Park City, Utah. The "the historic schoolhouse-turned-boutique-hotel" is on "Park City’s list of ultra-luxe inns." The hotel was also featured in Martha Stewart Living's Summer Travel Issue!

Their design and renovation are breath-taking and I just had to share. They have an absurdly acute attention to detail and staggering style. In short, they are just SO COOL. The article is great too, because it turns their aesthetic and design sense into decorating tips we can all use.

My favorite details are the stunning elk antler chandelier lacquered "and bejeweled with dozens of crystals" by my cousin Paul,  the antique rug "over-dyed in dark blue to give it a modern edge," and "the 10-foot antique French opera house mirror."

It might still be too small to read (drat!) so if you'd like to read the article let me know and I'll email you the pdf. :)
