You'll learn how to: Articulate what makes you happy so you can design to reflect your truest style; Layer the lighting and enhance natural light so you feel (and look) your best; Know what to let go of and what to re-purpose so that every space is organized; Prioritize function and comfort for every room; Understand the impact of decor and confidently pick patterns, palettes, and pops.

Brainwashed [videorecording] : sex-camera-power / by Dash, Julie,on-screen participant.; Menkes, Nina,film director.; Spheeris, Penelope,on-screen participant.; Yi, Charlyne,on-screen participant.; Kino Lorber, Inc.,publisher.;
Julie Dash, Penelope Spheeris, Charlyne Yi."If the camera is predatory, then the culture is predatory." In this eye-opening documentary, celebrated independent filmmaker Nina Menkes explores the sexual politics of cinematic shot design. Using clips from hundreds of movies we all know and love from Metropolis to Vertigo to Phantom Thread Menkes convincingly makes the argument that shot design is gendered. It illuminates the patriarchal narrative codes that hide within supposedly "classic" set-ups and camera angles and demonstrates how women are frequently displayed as objects for the use, support, and pleasure of male subjects. The film features interviews with an all-star cast of women and non-binary industry professionals including Julie Dash, Penelope Spheeris, Charlyne Yi, Joey Soloway, Catherine Hardwicke, Eliza Hittman, Maria Giese, and Rosanna Arquette. The result is an electrifying call-to-action that will fundamentally change the way you see, and watch, movies.E.Closed-captioned for the hearing impaired.DVD ; wide screen presentation ; Dolby Digital 5.1, Dolby Digital 2.0.

If the sun never sets / by Huang, Ana,author.;
Five years ago, he broke her heart. Now, he'll do anything to win her back. When Farrah walked into her lunch meeting, she didn't expect to see him. Blake Ryan. Her first love, her first heartbreak, and now, her first client as a freelance interior designer. It's been five years, but she'll never forget the way he shattered her. He whispers pretty words, but she'll never believe him. Her body craves his, but she'll never give him her heart. Not again. Not ever. Money. Looks. A booming sports bar empire. On the surface, Blake has it all. But inside, he's haunted - both by nightmares of a tragic loss and dreams of the girl he once betrayed. When fate reunites them, he sees it as a sign: it's time to get the love of his life back. No matter what it takes.
