All photographs by Lisa Romerein from Patina Farm by Brooke Giannetti and Steve Giannetti, reprinted by permission of Gibbs Smith.
You, of course, know my friend Brooke Giannetti, the gifted interior designer behind
Velvet & Linen fame and her uber-talented husband, architect Steve Giannetti.
Yes, of course you do, how could you not?!!
I found Brooke's blog Velvet & Linen right after I started writing about our renovation of the farmhouse that I first developed a following of readers, which in turn encouraged me to continue writing about our journey. So, in essence Brooke is the reason you are here reading my blog! She gave me my blog-wings and I can not thank her enough for that. Both Brooke and Steve were so generous and gracious with helping me figure out several very important details around the house during our renovation and for that I will be forever grateful. They are both such lovely, kind people.
I can honestly say that the only home that I have ever seen (that could make me walk away from the farmhouse;) where I could walk right in, not change a single element or piece of furniture and live happily ever after (with Dan and the girls of course;) is Brook and Steve's Ojai home!
The house and property is pure magic.
Watching their progress over the last several years... from selling their gorgeous home in Santa Monica, (which was the subject of their first book Patina Style HERE) to buying land in Ojai, to breaking ground on the house, to Brooke discussing all the design elements, to watching every detail of the landscaping and viewing Steve's renderings of what they wanted the property and house to be has been a riveting journey for their love of a house. That they created a home and property that looks like it has been there for 100 years is nothing short of amazing.
Brooke and Steve's new book, Patina Farm is a beautiful collaboration of the duo's love, passion and talent to create "home." I have savored every moment of reading the book; taking in the story of the decisions, the design elements, the choices made and why they made them makes the book a wonderful, informative read. This is a book I will use over and over again for inspiration.
Take a look at some of the magic for yourself....
