Paris Design Week, 2018
As a designer who wears many hats (I am an interior designer for my residential clients, I design fabric and wallpaper for other designers, and I write about design for the public) I often think about antiques and how to incorporate them into our homes. How do we meld the love for the old and unique with our modern homes? How do we take that family heirloom and make it fresh and new?
On this subject-- please join us for this exciting discussion at the Boston Design Center where I'll speak on a panel about this very topic. My good friend Toma Clark Haines of the Antiques Diva will lead the discussion sharing her expertise, and renowned interior designer Steven Favreau and I will join her on the panel. I have just returned from Paris to attend Deco-off, the Paris Flea Market and Paris Design Week and I am excited to share what I gleaned. I've traveled with the Antiques Diva tours from Parma and Milan to Paris, and we hope to share our experiences and talk about the current design trends gleaned from these exciting antique markets. Here's the skinny...I hope you'll join us!
Happy Nesting
XO Tamara

| Join the Boston Design Center (BDC) and The Antiques Diva for a panel discussion on the timeless effects of classic antiques. Engage with an array of antique experts - including the inimitable antiquer Toma Clark Haines, the iconic interior designer Steven Favreau, and the inspirational jack-of-all-trades Tamara Matthews Stephenson - to ask questions, catch a story or two and learn the tricks of the trade. |

Massachusetts, one of original 13 colonies, is rich with American culture. From the better-known Boston and Beacon Hill to the coastal towns of Essex and New Bedford, Massachusetts is the perfect place to find artifacts and antiques that tell the story of the nation's history.
What some don't know is that, while Boston is a cornerstone for Northeastern antique and vintage finds, it is also at the forefront of style and design and is evolving along with the industry itself - the perfect culmination of old and new.
So what better place is there to talk antiques with the experts? |
