velvett said:In fall of 2001 B.Smith hired my old company to re-design her new NYC penthouse apartment.
I just read today in the NYTimes how she designed the place herself.
Designed all the cabinetry, picked out all the stone and tile.
Well, well, well.
Who the hell is B. Smith?? I need my office re-designed.

Well, yes and no.
The article specifically says she designed it.
She's not qualified as an architect that had to get approval for the demo and to keep the place to code.
I personally drew up the plans including the demo and designed all the cabinetry for that apartment which in the article the author says she designed.
"Ms. Smith and Mr. Gasby worked closely on the apartment with Jonathan Arnold, a cabinetmaker, who expedited Ms. Smith's ideas on design in lieu of an architect. She described her style at home as global."

On me no - I worked for the company that designed it - so they should do that for my old company. It's not really surprising - I mean to the public world why should a stylist have to hire a designer...
I'm dying to find out if the old bosses have seen it yet.

Velv,
B.Smith?!? I haven't lived in NYC full time since '96, but I remember her well, my finacee at that time (whew, that would have SUCKED!) consulted on her menu at 'B.Smiths', not even sure if that incarnation of her restaurant is still open.
anywho: when they got a shorty in the Times, guess who was credited with 'designing' all the food?
You got that right.
LoL.

Atleast you have a chance to get some coin out of this. The very least you'll probably get from free pub for you/your company.velvett said:

I won't personally - my name could possibly get mentioned but it wasn't my company that did the just the company I worked for at the time of the project.
If they haven't thrown anything away they should still have every drawing, invoice and communication that I had saved.
I know their lawyer from prior dealings at the company - it should be an interesting show.
interesting.
call me, silly. I have an interesting opportunity for you.
