I have been an interior designer for over 30 years have an abiding passion for the original, history. Little Augury was born on New Year's Eve 2008. It began as a way of continuing a conversation with a beloved mentor the promise to keep just a bit of his wit wisdom alive by sharing it whenever possible. Little Augury focuses on interior design, art, literature, fashion social history with an eye, always looking back to the past, in hope of understanding what is authentic what will endure what connects us to our environment. Always listening for the footstep on the old stair-the sound of lives that walked that way. In her new book, HOW THEY DECORATED: INSPIRATION FROM GREAT WOMEN OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY she captures the individual design approaches of sixteen icons of 20th Century Style.
