Add style and functionality to your home with Studio Seitz furniture

Since leaving my 9-to-5 job early in 2021 to focus on my writing, my home is no longer just my sanctuary, it is also my office. Both my refuge and my need for refuge. As much as “work from home” has become the Covid times lifestyle, that condition is more aptly stated as “live at work.”

Working from home the past year has made me realize no investment I can make is more routinely returned to me than investments in my house – that includes its furnishings. While I’m a few years into building my personal art collection, what I need now are furniture and home accessories to compliment the artwork.

I’ve been impressed by the modern heirloom furniture from New York-based designer Studio Seitz. Founded in 2018, Studio Seitz pieces are “driven by the past and refined for today,” built upon fading traditions through a timeless, yet distinctly modern furniture and home collection.

With family craftsmanship dating back to 1795, co-founders Kevin Seitz and Rob van Wyen combine the best of Swiss precision, traditional craftsmanship and quality sustainable materials with a modern and tactile simplicity.

I’m particularly taken by the Stabellenbank. This archetypal alpine bench is simple, classic and functional. In my home’s entryways and bedrooms, I’m always looking for a better place to sit and put stuff when my hands are full. I’ve been looking for something I can move around easily, something fashionable. The Stabellenback bench is the perfect solution.

As is Studio Seitz’ bedside table which solves my wife’s problem of an overcrowded nightstand. Between her beauty products, water bottles, clothes, tissue boxes, etc., etc., her nightstand is a cluttered mess which spills over into the rest of the bedroom. Not the vibe we’re looking for first thing in the morning and last thing at night.

Every Studio Seitz heirloom is handmade-to-order and, therefore, one-of-a-kind. Beautiful pieces melding past and present to make the future perfect.

I spend more time in my home than anywhere else. Now more than ever. Investing in furnishings from Stuido Seitz makes that time and my surroundings as pleasurable and productive as possible.

What a treat stopping by @historycolorado in @visi What a treat stopping by @historycolorado in @visitdenver to see @virgilortiz “Revolt 1680/2180: Runners + Gliders,” his latest exhibition of Indigenous futurism drawing inspiration from the Pueblo Revolt of 1680, the FIRST American Revolution.
Virgil’s remarkable large scale ceramics, costume designs, photographs and video are paired with an ancestral and traditional Cochiti and Pueblo pottery demonstrating how he carries on a millennia’s old tradition.

Wonderful introduction to @tincupwhiskey this week Wonderful introduction to @tincupwhiskey this week in Breckenridge. 
Tin Cup is a #Colorado company using Eldorado Springs, CO water in its #bourbon and #whiskey. Eldorado Springs was recently judged to have the 2nd best tasting water in the world and best in US.
Tin Cup has partnered with @colorado14ersinitiative, a non profit working to protect fragile alpine ecosystems across the state by keeping hikers on trails, safeguarding decades, sometimes centuries and millennia, of soil deposits and plant growth. 
Tin Cup shares CFI’s passion for sustainable trails and has named its 14-year bourbon this year after Quandry Peak, the state’s busiest 14er for foot traffic. CFI assists on trail maintenance and restoration and education to keep hikers on the trail.

The GORGEOUS entryway to @bottleworkshotel in @bot The GORGEOUS entryway to @bottleworkshotel in @bottleworksindy! Love the art deco detail and ornamentation of this former Coca-Cola bottling factory renovated and repurposed in the past 2 years.
I had the good fortune of staying here on my recent trip to @visitindy and would encourage you to do the same. All kinds of hip restaurants and go-out places in the area, fun duck pin bowling place across the street, blocks from downtown.
Naptown no more, #indianapolis continues to be one of my favorite places to visit.
Happy #caturday from Rex Clawson, ‘Cat with Flow Happy #caturday from Rex Clawson, ‘Cat with Flowers Still Life,’ (1982) at @highmuseumofart.
Checked out a #sunflower field just north of @visi Checked out a #sunflower field just north of @visitindy last weekend! So many bees! I loved it.

Sharing one of the finest, most insightful curator Sharing one of the finest, most insightful curatorial pairings I’ve ever seen. At left, Jim Denomie, ‘Blue Eyed Chief, (2008); at right, Woody Crumbo, ‘Deer and the Moon,’ (1945). What we see here in Crumbo’s “Flat,” precise, refined, detailed, beautiful image and Denomie’s rough, expressive, messy, emotional, grotesque figure is the evolution of Native American contemporary art in 2 pictures. Fabulous. 
Neither better or worse, but very different. I would call it progress. How their colors complement each other is a remarkable coincidence.
These artworks can be seen at @eiteljorgmuseum in @visitindy which recently completed a total renovation and reinstallation of its Native American art collection. The  Eiteljorg is no longer simply one of the finest museums for Native American art in the country, it’s one of the finest Native American museums period. The presentation is expansive, thorough, approachable and executed to the highest standards of institutional excellence from wall text to display cases, lighting, video installations, etc.
Bravo!
Here’s and example of a painting that should be Here’s and example of a painting that should be iconic to the canon of American art, but isn’t. #barkleyhendricks ‘Dr. Kool,’ 1973, at @newfieldstoday in @visitindy.
Major artist, major subject, in major museum collection; it’s large and in charge, fresh, original, unique and I’d never seen this image before my visit to the museum last week, and I’ll bet you’ve never seen it either. I’ll let you figure out for yourself why that is. Hint: it’s not your fault.
