" JASON MARTIN Los Angeles, CA  jasonmartindesign.com WHAT&amp;#039;S NEW ABOUT YOU? My work isn&amp;#039;t modern but it&amp;#039;s tailored. I always ask myself, &amp;#039;Will the space look good once there&amp;#039;s been a year&amp;#039;s worth of living done in it?&amp;#039; It has to look fresh but can&amp;#039;t be something that will look tired/dated in a year.  WHO&amp;#039;S YOUR FAVORITE DECORATOR EVER? Albert Hadley and Jed Johnson for their unerring sense of style, lack of pretense, and the timelessness of their work. And for shining a spotlight on American design.  WHAT&amp;#039;S THE MOST INSPIRING THING YOU&amp;#039;VE SEEN LATELY?  Recently I toured a house for a client. It was in total disrepair. But walking around, I began to notice that it had beautiful proportions, lots of natural light, and the overall sense of a great family house. I love the idea of bringing a house back to life for someone.  TELL US ONE OF YOUR SECRET DESIGN RESOURCES. Children&amp;#039;s books from the &amp;#039;60s and &amp;#039;70s. I&amp;#039;ve always been drawn to their color palettes. Take a look at Where the Wild Things Are. There are enough interesting color combinations in there for a lifetime.  MAKE A DECORATING PREDICTION. I feel like we&amp;#039;re in a &amp;#039;morning after the party&amp;#039; phase of design. Once we&amp;#039;re past the hangover, design will thrive again, but with an emphasis on good, honest, sustainable craftsmanship. I&amp;#039;m starting to feel really optimistic.
