Did you know that designer Loi Thai of Tone on Tone Antiques, based in Bethesda but recognized nationally as a premier source for 18th and 19th century Swedish antiques, has recently started blogging? I was so excited to come across his blog just a few days ago. Today he posted about his former home - gorgeous! The thing that strikes me most is the feeling of openness and warmth at the same time. You almost expect to feel a fresh summer breeze while walking from room to room. (Traditional Home 2008, photography by Erik Johnson)
Doesn't everyone who loves design know this image? For me, the picture of this swedish secretary is one of the most memorable interiors shots of this decade.For more images of Loi Thai and Thomas Troeschel's previous home, go here.
Hope you have a great spring weekend!

Hi Michele - Such a great post! I agree with you and was so excited too to learn about Loi's blog. He has the best style (and is so nice too!). Any updates yet on the work being done at your home? I'm sure I'm not the only one who can't wait to see what you're doing. Have a great weekend,

Hi, Michele - Thank you very much for introducing my new blog! This is such an honor!! I am so grateful and appreciative of your generosity. As I mentioned to Jennifer Sergent a couple years ago, your blog is one of my favorites. I especially love your features on DC area designers. Also, I really enjoy your contributions to the Washingtonian magazine! Congratulations. Kindest regards, Loi
Every single one of those images are incredible. I am running to his blog......
Really great style and mix of luxe and comfort and color.
Yes, I noticed Loi's comments on a few blogs and was so happy to see him. I hope one day to visit his store on our next DC trip. His taste is exquisite - his rooms are some of the most beautiful.
