Wish List: Italian Style Home Goods from Promemoria
Irwin Weiner ASID - If you've ever had a decorating experience with a vendor, you know that some of the items they carry are grand and you'd use them for any client. Some things are so-so, and you hold your nose a bit and bear with it when a client falls in love with something not quite so wonderful ... but you go ahead with the purchase regardless because it's a client must-have. And then there are dreadful items where you ardently talk your client out of their infatuation with something akin to design drek. But a year ago, a ray of sunlight burst onto the New York City showroom scene, and while I've never shopped at Promemoria for a client - yet - I have a powerful hunger to buy out their store, so to speak. These Italian home goods are stylish and beautifully tailored, like items you'd see at the finest Italian 5-star hotel. I've included some of my favorites below, and for more information you can visit the Promemoria website. (And if any of my clients are reading this post, let's go shopping at Promemoria in 2012!)
