PRANA YOGA & PILATES

Hey another ELMONT girl doing good for herself, my friend and alumni, Lauren Calarco-Zummo From the class of "85, recently opened Prana Pilates and Yoga studio in St. James. With her partner Nicole they have created a warm, and highly relaxing atmosphere that speaks to your body and soul. Featuring "state of the art" pilates eqipment, a yoga meditation room, massages, and babysitting the studio offers all the anemities your looking for. Lets talk logo and decoration, thats where yours truly comes in, I designed a logo using the colors Lauren and Nicole suggested, and then did some decorative painting through-out the studio to create some visual pizazz!

Latest project

Here is a photo of a private spa I recently finished in East Hampton. The walls, and ceiling are plastered in a custon tinted pure lime Venetian Plaster. The results are a semi smooth surface with lots of depth and movement. The benefits of natural lime in a spa like this are tenfold due to the nature of the spa. The spa is below the ground , and quite damp and steamy, the lime retards mold, mildew and bacterial growth. The Lime is a "green" product and it "breathes" allowing clean air flow and a certain"freshness" in the spa area. Not only is this finished spa a relaxing and rejuvenating space for the home owner, it is also an environmentally friendy area for enjoyment that will keep its beauty for years to come.

Flip that house with Faux

This project was a wonderful opportunity to help a family in diress, and also to be involved creativly with a group of artists donating thier time and skills for a better purpose. The mural I worked on was a ceiling mural, I was contacted by Jeanette Fischer last spring, she told me about the project and I was more than willing to participate. Jeanette told me the dimensions of the room, and e mailed me a sample of the fabric selected for the bedding. I designed a mural utilizing the unique bamboo leaves and delicate florals from the fabric. I wanted to soften the the edges of the room and ceiling with an entwined motiff in the bamboo. After I painted the mural on a light weight canvas I mailed it to California from my NY studio. There the mural was installed to the ceiling -the results very pleasing and comfortable master bed room. To read more about this project scroll down and hit the link to the right.
