I love to collect...Asian hats, seashells, books, old boxes and pictures.... things take on new impact when they are displayed in groups or repeated systematically in a space. Collections can be displayed with a clean modern aesthetic that doesn't smack in the least of Granny's curio cabinet....its all about form. Quite often I'm asked about how best to frame and display family photos. I love to take my favorite photos, enlarge/copy them in black and white, then display them in large collections in strategic areas...along a staircase, down a hallway, banking a fireplace. Below are some examples from my own circa 1880 home. Enjoy and be inspired to display those things you love to collect!
