Barry Dixon

Barry Dixon is speaking at the Michigan Design Center in, well, about 2 minutes.  Needless to say I will not be making it.  Mr. Dixon will also be making another Metro Detroit appearance as the featured lecturer at the 2010 and 26th Annual Christ Church Grosse Pointe Antiques Show, which will be kicked off this evening at the preview party and silent auction. He is speaking on how to incorporate antiques into modern homes... what a great topic! With a life that has taken him from South Africa to India and beyond I am sure that he will have a gobally cultured point of view.  Being published in numerous national publications, combined with his new hit book, "Barry Dixon Interiors" this is a much anticipated event for any design enthusaist. If you are feeling like you need to get a little revved up on the topic check out this worthwhile 1stdibs profile. I have also included some inspiring images of his work below. I am sure there are fabulous finds and stories for every room pictured below.
