I think the SRT is so special because it's such an informal format, and we really get to hear designers talk from their heart, instead of what's chosen and edited in print.FrenchGardenHousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07121507761140372411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3350982326967242853.post-25835684096719656962009-11-29T17:12:03.007-08:002009-11-29T17:12:03.007-08:00wouldyou three let the lady talk, please!wouldyou three let the lady talk, please!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3350982326967242853.post-49998137522074981012009-11-27T08:39:28.694-08:002009-11-27T08:39:28.694-08:00I enjoyed this interview so much and have admired ...I enjoyed this interview so much and have admired Alessandra Branca's work for a long time.

This IS a great format. If we've learned anything it's that designers love to talk but we only get their words in print. This SRT hit home for me at Thanksgiving: Space so nice and so flexible that folks want to be there, space that accommodates family doings while creating lifetime memories.Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14154846109609330503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3350982326967242853.post-81951612156710560142009-11-26T08:17:25.570-08:002009-11-26T08:17:25.570-08:00All things just keep getting better...don't th...All things just keep getting better...don't they?

I was so fascinated to learn more about her. I spent my early childhood living and traveling extensively in Europe. I grew up in Lake Forest among the gorgeous estates, many of them designed by David Adler. My parents lived on Sheridan Road and I went to Ferry Hall for prep school and my brothers went to Lake Forest Academy. I know that growing up amidst such incredible style and elegance had a tremendous impact on my aesthetic. I have never to this day seen more beautiful homes than in Lake Forest. I remember one of my friends in grade school whose family estate had peacocks wandering all over the manicured lawns and we would run around collecting the feathers they had dropped. I kept them in a vase on my dresser. I hope Alessandra reads this comment. Thanks for another wonderful interview. I will enjoy her work even more now knowing our shared connections. Happy Thanksgiving to all.Beth Connollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10443450944645563476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3350982326967242853.post-52716439396813658002009-11-25T10:03:48.927-08:002009-11-25T10:03:48.927-08:00Great to have coffee with the four of you...and th...Great to have coffee with the four of you...and thanks to Alessandra for the interview! <br /><br />Best,<br />MichelleMichellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02677523077030329256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3350982326967242853.post-54669933883566061122009-11-24T15:12:16.368-08:002009-11-24T15:12:16.368-08:00I think this is one of the best interiews yet!
