Le premier.

This is the first post of the blog I've been thinking of writing for some time. It will be a slight melange of things, but mostly about interior design and fashion. I am excited to see how it evolves. The namesake of this blog is an homage to my favorite novel, The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand. The Enright House was designed by protagonist Howard Roark, who eschewed everything about traditional architecture and it's meaningless excess. He was a true minimalist, and as young girl reading this book for the first time I was deeply moved by his honesty, as well as his innovative style.

"I aspire" was the motto of author Truman Capote, and I like it because it seems like a phrase that is filled with hope, and yet is still ambiguous. I aspire to be many things, and I think if I remember his motto I will never lack in motivation. As far as Mr. Capote, he intrigues me for a number of reasons, but mostly because I've always wished that I could have attended his famous "Black & White Ball." So I'm putting this out now-- if you ever need a +1 for a masked ball, black & white or otherwise, let me know. On a similar note, I can be packed for Paris in practically no time.

In the end, I aspire to inspire-- to inform, and to give my input on anything that enters my mind at a given time. If anyone enjoys reading it, then I will be a success; I will have built my own Enright House.
