Sometimes, an amazing room starts with one statement piece. Such was the case in this Northwood Village dining room, brought to life by Piper Gonzalez of Piper Gonzalez Designs for the 2016 American Red Cross Designers’ Show House. “I drew my inspiration for the dining room from a stunning custom chandelier, created by artist Louise Gaskill, which features an orchidcolored piece of vintage Murano glass,” Gonzalez says. With the chandelier as the centerpiece, the designer added splashes of the same purple hue paired with gray silk walls and a bamboo silk rug from Jaipur Living. Gilded flower artwork by Tommy Mitchell and subtle metallic pops imbue the final look with a modern elegance. Says Gonzalez: “Bringing in traces of orchid throughout the room adds a feminine touch, while silver and…

Charcoal is good for more than just a summer barbecue. When treated to increase its absorbency, it becomes activated charcoal, which has a variety of medical and beauty benefits. It is frequently used in hospitals to treat poisonings because it can attach to toxins in the stomach and absorb them before they make their way into the bloodstream. In recent years, the ingredient has become a beauty-blogger favorite because of its purported ability to pull oil, dirt, and other undesirable substances from clogged pores. It’s most commonly used in facial masks (a great one to try is Origins Clear Improvement Active Charcoal Mask to Clear Pores) and is particularly effective in treating oily skin and acne. In addition to appearing in shampoos and soaps, activated charcoal is also heralded as…

OUTDOOR VOICE For her contribution to the 2016 American Red Cross Designers’ Show House, Melissa Z. Guerra of NXG Studio brought Miami chic to historic Northwood. “The inspiration for the terrace came from an imagined Miami Art Deco boutique hotel,” Guerra says. “We wanted the space to have a modern-retro vibe, so we brought in elements of whimsy, including synthetic grass rugs and a living wall made of artificial boxwood. In order to enhance the modern aesthetic, we enlisted the help of a local artist to create wall panels and sculptures made of weatherproof aluminum. To complete the look we opted for organic shapes, teak accents, and a large white sectional. We then tied each part of the space together with pops of bright aqua, reflecting the colors in the…

CRIG H. LICHTBLAU, MD WHEN SELECTING A SPECIALIST IN REHABILITATION MEDICINE, WHAT ARE THE KEY CRITERIA? Physiatrists are specialists in diagnosing and treating problems of the neurological and musculoskeletal system. In addition, if patients need any other services—such as those of other medical, physical, occupational, and speech therapists—the physiatrist will coordinate that treatment. The result is a specially designed treatment program tailored to the patient’s needs. When picking a physiatrist, patients want to be sure the candidates are board certified, are well trained, and have vast clinical practice experience. WHAT ARE THE LATEST DEVELOPMENTS/INNOVATIONS IN YOUR FIELD? The technology of our M6 laser and Accu-Spina are some of the latest innovation in the field. These are two of the nonsurgical approaches to treating chronic and acute pain and injury. WHAT…

Kerri Verna The first yoga class Kerri Verna ever participated in was the one she taught. A Maryland resident at the time, she was on a quest to become certified in nearly every type of fitness program offered at the gym where she worked: Pilates, tai chi, kickboxing, weightlifting—you name it. But when a pregnancy halted her high-cardio training, she decided instead to pursue “that easy yoga stuff,” as she describes it. “I instantly loved it,” she recalls. “I fell in love with how it made me feel—at peace.” Verna taught yoga until the day before she delivered and later became certified after she and her family moved to Florida nine years ago. Now, since 2012, Verna’s studio is the beach in Lake Worth, where she instructs Wednesday and Saturday…
