The Digital Land Rush

To digitize or not…Is that the question? For many digital startups, 2019 is going to look like a proud Irish immigrant planting their stake in the westward land grab. Just like Tom Cruise in Far and Away. Only the land is called market share. It’s not land at all. It’s digital market space. It’s up for grabs, and anyone with a good product and tech savviness can enter the race. Watch out Big Box, the starting pistol just fired!

Getting Restoration Hardware's Antique Gray Color

Ever wonder how Restoration Hardware creates those gorgeous colors! We did too, so we tried to recreate the color on an unfinished maple dresser. The look we were after is from the EMPIRE ROSETTE 8-DRAWER DRESSER and you'll be happy to know, it wasn't a hard color to hack!

Museo Dell'Opera del Duomo in Florence

These famous bronze doors helped kick off the renaissance in Florence. They were the first to show “perspective,” the visual trick that allows each life-like scene to come alive in the viewers’ mind. This is a huge leap forward for art!

Weathering Pine Perfectly

What do you guys have planned for Valentine's Day this year? I need some ideas for Los Angeles! It's our first time living there and I don't know what my options are. Now that we are in LA, it's always been a dream to go on the Price is Right! You know what I mean? But now that Bob is gone, it's just not the same. I guess it's not that a romantic day... unless we win! ;)
