We went to a book release party last night.
Back in the Spring we were asked if our house could be included in a book celebrating homes of all types in the San Gabriel Valley. We have a 1948 Mid-Century Modern Home in Altadena designed by noted architect Gregory Ain. The book, entitled “At Home Pasadena” is published by Prospect Park Books. The imagery was shot by two Art Center colleagues Jennifer Cheung & Steven Nilsson. And the Foreword written by David Brown who was the President of Art Center and is now the director of Descanso Gardens. You can see a few spreads of the book at their web site: http://www.athomepasadena.com/
Our house is featured on six or seven pages. One image of my favorite piece of art that resides on our hallway is on the web site if you go to “View Inside” and click on the third thumbnail. It is an illustration of Andy Warhol by a good friend of ours, Kamran Moojedi (also from Art Center – we’re everywhere!) We have three other pieces by Kamran that grace the walls of our home and would have more but we have run out of walls!
We own the same piece by Kamran Moojedi – the image of Andy Warhol! We have had it since about 1996. We are interested in selling it if ever you come across someone who would like to own one of their own. We live in Yucaipa, CA.
It was exciting to see our piece in your home but our style has changed and the piece no longer has the same meaning to us as it originally did.
