The Bohemian Aesthetic
What is Bohemian?
Browse the photo book below and notice how this elusive style secedes from conventionality. It's more about self expression and passion than about accepted design standards. Notice the use of bright colors with a neutral underpinning, the reinventing of vintage items, the layering of intricate patterns and textures, the use of natural elements to create warmth, and an emphasis on art. It is adventurous, global, humble, handmade, with an unstudied air. Whatever you consider your style preference, be it Traditional, Victorian, Post-Industrial Modern, Midcentury Modern, whatever it is, your inner Bohemian will help you to express your creativity and ingenuity.

The Art of Assemblage
Local Artist:
Laurel Wiker
As a self taught artist, Laurel mixes salvaged architectural artifacts, colorful vintage glass and natural elements to create pieces that have an enduring appeal. Her art is often a collage of found objects intertwined with classic or esoteric art prints and framed by a vintage window of hand blown glass. Laurel’s pieces may invoke the memory of a musty attic full of treasures, or perhaps the earthy fragrance of a favorite hiking trail enveloped by a thicket of mountain laurel . She is masterful at reinventing the ordinary. See our page featuring more of Laurel's art.
