Tuesday April 27th, Diane Saeks covers Brian Dittmar’s room at the SF Designer Showhouse.
Check it out, the area rug looks terrific.
The centerpiece of this room is a tone-on-tone custom designed rug (through Mark Nelson Designs in New York City), woven with the Auguste Rodin quote “Nothing is a waste of time if you use the experience wisely” in handwritten script lettering. Given the large scale of the words, they first appear as an abstract, contemporary pattern — but upon further inspection, the words will become clear.
