ELEVATE YOUR HOME WITH THESE ARTISTS
OUR TOP PICKS FOR 2024
WHERE WOULD WE BE WITHOUT ART?
For this installment of our Artful Living Notes, we want to elevate and celebrate artists, from those whose art we’ve incorporated into our designs to those WE LOVE.
ARTISTS WE LOVE
GIOI TRAN
San Francisco-based painter and interior designer Gioi Tran is nature’s accomplished, creative force. He draws inspiration for his art from reflections on water. Experimenting with the interplay of light and color, Gioi abstracts these reflections to craft this effect. He’s a dear friend of Lorri, and we plan to showcase his evocative, brightly colored work in our brick-and-mortar space.
PABOY BOJANG
Paboy Bojang, a Gambian craftsman and designer seeking asylum in Naples, Italy, is one of our favorite vendors. We have had the privilege of working with him many times over the years. He creates exquisite, vibrantly colored cushion covers sewn by hand with love. He also employs refugees like himself for his homeware enterprise, In Casa by Paboy.
GUY DIEHL
We used American artist Guy Diehl’s delightful takeout art for the same pied-e-terre at The Pacific. He creates photorealistic still-life prints and paintings that never mimic reality. Instead, they capture what we see in our world so vividly. His work has a playful yet sophisticated edge that serves our client’s tastes well.
AJ OISHI
We used self-taught American artist AJ Oishi’s stunning piece for our client at the Four Seasons Residences. Specializing in abstract pointillism, AJ’s fascination with bold color combinations, gradations, and patterns makes for art that truly draws the eye. Her work adds a dash of modern playfulness to any space. Sometimes, the only muse one needs is a dot.
CREATIVITY EXPLORED
This nonprofit organization in San Francisco has been championing adult artists with developmental disabilities for over 40 years. Also functioning as a studio, the organization celebrates and nurtures creative potential with care and compassion, offering art supplies, training, exhibitions, and sales opportunities. Living by the mantra “Art Changes Lives,” Creativity Explored ensures everyone can access their artistic muse. We have a couple of pieces showcased in our studio!
