A healthy body leads to a healthy mind.” Michelle Cook Indesign “My favourite quote is... ‘When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.’ ~ Wayne Dyer” STYLE EDITOR FOR CANADIAN HOME TRENDS Whitewash & Co. www.whitewashco.ca “I always get a good chuckle when rooms have no design principles and the person brags that it is the best design ever!” CANADIAN HOME TRENDS’ FOOD EDITOR Mistura, Boccone Trattoria Veloce and Boccone Pronto www.massimocapra.com “My favourite 30 minute meal is Radicchio and Apple Salad with warm bacon and onion dressing, topped with shaved Asiago cheese. I pair it with a spaghetti, preserved tuna, capers and olives.” DIY EDITOR FOR CANADIAN HOME TRENDS Nicholas Rosaci Interiors www.rosaci.com “A chore I absolutely hate doing is cleaning my vintage black onyx crystal chandelier that hangs over my kitchen isla nd. The dark crystals look stunning but attract lots of dust!” Kim Bartley Design www.kimbartleydesign.com “I would love to have a drink with Philippe Starck at his hotel, The Delano. In his iconic Kartell Louis Ghost chairs, we would discuss his belief that well-designed quality objects are not just for the elite, and his mission to make life better for everyone through design.” Jane Lockhart Interior Design www.janelockhart.com “If I could only wear one colour for the rest of my life, I would wear deep purple, almost black. I like this colour because it is rich and historical.”
