<a href="http://www.dwellondesign.com/">Dwell on Design</a> returned to Los Angeles this year for another round of great design events and exhibitions, seems like it gets better and better every year! This year I explored the show to see both new finds and old finds, but always interesting new showcases. From ideas on landscaping to space-maximizing bathroom ideas from <a href="http://www.geberitnorthamerica.com/en_us/index.html">Geberit</a>, here are some of my highlights from this year’s #DOD2015.<br />

For a second year in a row, I’ve had the opportunity to team up with Geberit. I’ve since come to know their products and have seem many installed in both commercial and residential use that look amazing. Pictured above, is the <a href="http://www.houzz.com/photos/11028985/Geberit-White-Glass-Monolith-Toilet-modern-toilets-other-metro">Geberit Monolith</a> and <a href="http://www.houzz.com/photos/11022847/Geberit-Jet-Black-Sigma50-Flush-Plate-modern-bathroom-fixtures-other-metro">Sigma50 Flush Plate</a>.

<br />
I've been using <a href="http://www.art.com/">Art.com</a> as a source for specifying art for client projects and using on client concept boards to convey how art selections will fit into a room setting. I recently had the opportunity to experience a new app from Art.com: the <a href="http://www.art.com/~/switchart-iphone-app">SwitchArt</a> app. A fun app that allows you to upload images (your pictures) to the app, select to be printed, & easily switch out with a magnetic backing for an ever changing art look.<br />
<br />
<img alt="" class=" aligncenter" src="http://materialgirlsblog.com/losangeles/files/2015/04/IMG_4742.png" height="372" width="400" /><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
The <a href="http://www.art.com/~/switchart-iphone-app">SwitchArt app</a> from Art.comSwitchArt is the simplest way to change out prints, often and easily, in the same frame. Watch a tutorial here to see how it works. The great thing about SwitchArt is if you want a new look, simply peel off the print and replace it with a new one in seconds. No hammer required. No need to buy a new frame.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
The new Art.com SwitchArt App makes things even easier and allows you to bring your photo stream straight to your walls. Simply download the app, buy a pack, and begin uploading personal photos from their camera roll, Instagram feed or Facebook page. Each pack includes a SwitchArt™ Magnetic Frame in the color and size of your choice, and a number of prints you select.</div>
<br />

<br />
Art.com's line up of<a href="http://www.art.com/~/art-apps/"> mobile apps</a> for art selection and ordering.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
One tool that is a great feature on Art.com is the ability to view different frames and mat features for art pieces. I use this for client project selections and screenshot the images for my concept boards. It's such a great way to incorporate the right look into a room design - or helpful for the consumer trying to select the best frame option.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to attend an event with <a href="http://www.bosch-home.com/us/">Bosch Appliances</a> at their headquarters in my (native) Orange County, CA. The two day event included a handful of designers and bloggers to experience, learn, and interact hands-on with the Bosch line up of products. (One thing I can say is we were very well fed over the course of just a few days!)<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img alt="" class="aligncenter" height="368" src="http://materialgirlsblog.com/losangeles/files/2015/03/IMG_4356.jpg" title="boschjillseidner" width="491" /></div>
<br />
Our first evening began with cocktails and this view, from Laguna Beach, CA at The Deck restaurant.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img alt="" class="aligncenter" height="368" src="http://materialgirlsblog.com/losangeles/files/2015/03/IMG_4357.jpg" title="jillseidner" width="491" /></div>
<br />
The evening progressed to a sunset dinner hosted by Bosch at The Deck restaurant where we met and talked with many of the a Bosch team members.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img alt="" class="aligncenter" height="491" src="http://materialgirlsblog.com/losangeles/files/2015/03/IMG_4355.jpg" title="jillseidner" width="491" /></div>
<br />
Bosch even added their "stamp" to our desserts.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img alt="" class="aligncenter" height="368" src="http://materialgirlsblog.com/losangeles/files/2015/03/IMG_4358-0.jpg" title="jillseidner" width="368" /></div>
<br />
Early the next morning we were straight over to the Bosch Experience & Design Center, a full showroom of product displays and a full functioning kitchen. I took to Bosch's integrated coffee machines. The built-in coffee makers provide everything from coffee, espresso, cappuccino, at the touch of a button in record making seconds. As a coffee connessier, I was addicted. And kept going back, for more, and more, and more. As everyone knows! So good.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img alt="" class="aligncenter" height="446" src="http://materialgirlsblog.com/losangeles/files/2015/03/IMG_4359.jpg" title="jillseidner " width="446" /></div>
<br />
By late morning, we were learning everything about Bosch design and engineering with demonstrations in their modern state of the art kitchens.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img alt="" class="aligncenter" height="368" src="http://materialgirlsblog.com/losangeles/files/2015/03/IMG_4363.jpg" title="jillseidnerbosch " width="491" /></div>
<br />
And by noon we were in the kitchen ourselves, with interactive cooking and preparing our lunch for the day! (Bloggers seen here teamed up with Bosch employees.)<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
Fortunately everything cleaned up well, in the quietest of dishwashers from Bosch.<br />

I was recently introduced to the online source of <a href="http://www.fiberandwater.com/">Fiber and Water</a>: a collection of accessories, including wall art and pillows, printed on burlap. Hand-crafted in Maine, with many patterns having a nautical theme, I was instantly attracted given my beach and boating upbringing on the Southern California coast. So much so, I encouraged Phoebe of<a href="http://www.fiberandwater.com/"> Fiber and Water</a> to reach out to our local boutiques, especially those of my hometown of Newport Beach and Balboa Island. Here are some of my favorite finds!<br />

I like black. While I love color too, there is something about black being basic, classic, elegant, and perhaps a basis for a neutral. Plus when used in a specific way, can become high contrast. It stands out from the crowd. It is, of course, all the colors mixed together.

I was recently looking for a window treatment company for one of my online design projects and came across <a href="http://www.DaVillBlinds.com">DaVill Blinds</a>: a competitively priced site for shades, shutters, and blinds backed by the trust of two former interior designers. Given their motto is they never have a sale, I felt the stability of pricing and being able to buy when ready (vs the sometimes rush to buy my clients get to score a sale). In other words, a great resource for clients who may implement the selections on their own time and budget.

The <a href="http://www.christopherguy.com/index.php">Christopher Guy</a> showroom on Beverly Boulevard, in the heart of the <a href="http://westhollywooddesigndistrict.com/contact/">West Hollywood Design District</a>, is in full festive holiday mode. The front windows are decorated with gifts and an elegant white tree among sophisticated Christopher Guy furniture pieces. I happen to pass by the other evening en route to an event and catpured a few pictures of the glam window display.<br />

On the market in Bel Air is a 40 million dollar home that I recently had the pleasure of touring on an architectural design tour with <a href="http://www.cadillac.com/">Cadillac</a> and <a href="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/">Architectural Digest</a>. The home previuosly was occupied by none other than <a href="http://blog.homes.com/2014/10/beyonce-and-jay-z-lease-l-a-home-for-how-much/">Beyonce and Jay-Z</a>. The contemporary home is comprised of 16,000 sq ft including seven bedroom suites and features high ceilings, glass walls, a two story living room, a home theater, tennis courts, and an infinity pool with ample deck and lounge spaces.<br />

<br />
I recently had the opportunity to tour an iconic home, designed by famed architect <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Lautner">John Lautner</a>, and referred to as the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheats_Goldstein_Residence">Sheats Goldstein Residence</a>. The house was built between 1961-1963 and sits atop Angelo View Drive in Los Angeles. The original home belonged to the Sheats family and was then purchased by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Goldstein">James Goldstein</a> in 1972. The house blends with the landscape in it's organic form merging indoor and outdoor living. A unique quality to the home are the "drinking skylights": the coffered ceiling living room is pierced by 750 mini skylights. The home uses cross ventilation for cooling; there is no air conditioning and the floors are radiant heated with copper pipes. Exterior covered pathways lead to the guest bedrooms and the master bedroom, hence the indoor/outdoor living.

<br />
Last month I attended an event at probably one of the most interesting architectually designed homes, quintessential of California living, in Venice, CA. The home is more noticably recognzied as being featured on the hit tv show <em><a href="http://californicationhouse.com/0ao9c3fia5sq51283sjuzynv9vhv98">Californication</a></em>. The architect is <a href="http://davidhertzfaia.com/mckinley-house/">David Hertz</a> and it is also his home. The event was hosted by <a href="http://www.legrand.us/adorne.aspx">Adorne</a>, makers of switch plates and wall plates, that offer a seamless minimal contemporary design, a perfect fit for the McKinley House.<br />

I love walking through neighborhoods and seeing houses. So, the other day I happen to take a stroll through a Westwood neighborhood, in the heart of Los Angeles, just east of Westwood Village and near to UCLA. The neighborhood still retains many of the orginal homes that were built between the 1920's and 1960's.<br />

<br />
On a recent visit to Chicago, I had the opportunity to meet up with my fellow Material Girl's blogger <a href="http://materialgirlsblog.com/chicago/">Julia</a> at her showroom and design studio. While Julia and I have met up on several occasions (both in LA and at High Point Markets) I had yet to visit her in her base city. Along with our friend <a href="http://lisamendedesign.blogspot.com/">Lisa Mende</a>, we spent a morning checking out the fab <a href="http://buckinghamid.com/">Buckingham ID</a> showroom followed by brunch at <a href="http://www.sohohousechicago.com/">SoHo House</a> in Chicago - and had a great time all of us together!<br />

<br />
Lots of events took place in LA this past week and I am here to share! Along with showroom parties and openings, I had the opportunity to takeover the <a href="http://westhollywooddesigndistrict.com/">West Hollywood Design District's</a> Instagram account for "A Day in the Life". It was fun to take part and feature some of my favorite places around town. For a full recap of photos, you can view <em><a href="http://instagram.com/wehodesigndistrict">here</a></em>.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Which catered to a very packed crowd: Celebs, design friends, and pretty much all of West Hollywood was there!</div>

<br />
The next evening I attended a much more intimate party. This one at <a href="http://www.wovenonline.com/">Woven Accents</a> for the "Spark The Imagination" installation invited by my friend Ginna of <a href="http://www.27ground.com/#home">27Ground</a>. (Pictured above with Shirley of <a href="http://shivhon.com/">Shivhon Rugs</a>.)<br />

On a recent trip to Chicago, I had the opportunity to stay at the newly opened <a href="http://chicago.langhamhotels.com/">The Langham</a>, an exquisite luxury hotel located at <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/330_North_Wabash">330 Wabash</a> (home of a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludwig_Mies_van_der_Rohe">Mies van der Rohe</a> designed building). I have been a fan of the architect since my days in design school. The landmark building is located in downtown Chicago adjacent to the river, 52 stories tall, and boasts over 300 guest rooms and suites. The second floor lobby (pictured above) is a testament to simple refined elegance.<br />
