    It’s always fun to visit this place, Pam. I really enjoy your beautiful New England photos. The classic boat show you’re spotlighting this week is similar to the Woodward Dream Cruise held every August here in suburban Detroit. Boomers from all over the country come here to VROOOM up and down Woodward in their classic wheels. Wish I had your eye and your camera. It might make a good blog subject.

    Hi Pam,

    I wanted to get in touch with you on behalf of Ames Hotel in Boston, designed by renowned design team The Rockwell Group. Open for less than a year, Ames has already garnered many awards which have been given on account of the design team finding a happy medium between the building’s historical roots & its newly born modern additions.

    Three distinct art installations honor both the old and the new. The original mosaic, barrel-vaulted ceiling in the hotel lobby was restored to its original state. London-based artists, Sophie Nielsen and Paul Knudsen, created the “Mirror Chandelier,” composed of thousands of individually cut metalized discs suspended from the Romanesque-Byzantine ceiling. At no point during the day will you find the same reflection illuminated on the mosaic ceiling. The wall behind the reception desk features hand cast porcelain pieces as a constant homage to the building’s exterior. Finally, in the tradition of New England curio cabinets, the on-premise Woodward restaurant and bar present the “Cabinets of Curiosities.” Each glass box contains a New England inspired object, such as a wooden carved Patriot or a Victorian birdcage, lending an almost ominous feel to a time gone by. I’ve attached a few images of the hotel to this e-mail.

    We’re reaching out to you today because of your interest in design, specifically New England design and would love to extend an invite for you to stop by for a personal tour.

    If you’re interested in learning more about the design and style of Ames Hotel, please let us know ASAP and we’ll work to coordinate. We hope you’ll join us!

    Warmly,
    Kate

    After reading your comment on my blog I had to do a little more digging and found your blog, which by the way, I thoroughly enjoy. I have a soft spot for New Hampshire. My wife and myself honeymooned there and left with lots of fond memories. You’ve just been added to my “favorite blog” list. Thanks.
