Patricia Gray (in my opinion, one of the modern greats of interior design) has a gorgeous post on her blog of photos taken on what appears to be a leisurely Sunday in Milan. Milan is one of the major city centers in Italy we still have yet to tackle. (somehow Southern Italy keeps stealing our attention...)

And while she captured some of the most astonishing photos, the city seems to be devoid of anyone else out and about (if I know my Italian friends, it's much too early for them to be up and about... last night was Saturday night after all ;)

While you're there, be sure to read Ivan Meade's interview with Patricia. What is astonishing and refreshing, is that Patricia considers it a delight to be among the many greats Ivan has interviewed (including Thomas O'Brien and Kenneth Brown). But Patricia truly is a force to be reckoned with in the interior design field. And best of all, she's one of the nicest people I've spoken with. To see what she was up to just a year ago, here's a link to an interview she graciously offered me last fall.

She has had an amazing year, and has added new accolades, travels and projects to her list of accomplishments. But if you're just looking for some stunning imagery, be sure not to miss her tour of Venice. Between Pucci storefronts and stunning architecture, there's something there for everyone.

Enjoy your Sunday!
