Sketch Gallery made me
fall in love with pink. Por-
tola’s Starman is more
subtle, less public-space
pow. It comes in a specialty
finish called Royal Satin
that has mica in it, so even
though it is a blush color,
it has a silvery sheen, like
satin ballet slippers. I can’t
wait to try it in a kitchen
with brass cabinet doors.”

“Years ago, John Ike—one of the partners in my
firm—introduced me to James McNeill Whistler’s
Peacock Room. It was totally the opposite of
what I would normally be drawn to—ostenta-
tious, a total show-off—but it was beautiful!
The color was like a deep ocean with different
shades of blue and green. I want to see it used
on faux-shagreen kitchen cabinets.”
