Oh, who cares if we talk about her a lot. This pic's gorgeous.

Thursday, January 04, 2007 by


Laura, Peter and his business partner Lee Mindel were photographed for Interior Design Magazine's In The Air 2006 feature, "Capturing the year's most creative design, art, and ideas."

What a fabulous picture of the three of them! Love the earrings, girl! The text running up the side reads: "
LAURA BENNETT, PETER SHELTON, AND LEE MINDEL The Project Runway finalist with her husband, Peter Shelton, and Lee Mindel, partners of Shelton, Mindel & Associates. Photography: Paul Godwin."

Boys, be sure of something. That are 3 things we will NEVER get tired of: Laura Bennett, Tim Gunn and PRGayBoys. Evah.

And I totally have a crush on Peter.. *shhh* ;-)

Laura looks amazing. And I'd love to steal those earrings right off Her Redness.

Did you see that Laura and Tim Gunn were among those chosen as "Hottest Reality TV Stars" by ...I forget who. I think MSNBC but maybe it was People mag. No question, Laura and Tim are the two breakout stars of this series.

And speaking of Tim, maybe Laura can fix him up with Lee Mindel. Wouldn't they make a mind-blowing pair? Not sure if Lee's single, though. I may have read somewhere that he has a partner.

This keeps better and better. I didn't know Lee Mindel was gay.

Y'know with his arms around her and the hem of her dress bunching up on the floor like that, I'm reminded of Gomez and Morticia Addams (in a good way).

Can't you just see Laura talking about Angela's fleurchons and Peter going, "Laura! That's French!" and kissing her from her hand to her neck?

Here's a nice article and a great picture of Lee and some of Shelton, Mindel & Associates designs:

"Lee Mindel of Shelton, Mindel & Associates, with items from the firm's .25 bath collection for Waterworks. The Chord Lavatory sink, showerhead, faucets, and fittings. The Chord bathtub."

I want that bathtub. It is GORGEOUS! No wonder Peter and Lee are so famous!

Anonymous said...

Interesting. Seems like Lee's always been the front man in Shelton, Mindel's pr efforts in the past. Now he's sharing the stage with Peter and the fabulous Laura.

Looks like their firm has a spread in the magazine for "Best Apartment" of 2006. Must buy a copy.

Laura, here you are again, you fabulous woman! Hey, Peter, you do not look bad either!

I would love to hear Laura talk about her architectural designs, her favorite colors on a wall, objects in a room and all that. I'm sure her taste is exquisite.

Here's some more on Peter Shelton and his projects:
"No project better epitomizes the grand chameleon like talents of Peter Shelton and Lee Mindel than the 170,000-sq.-ft. headquarters for Polo/Ralph Lauren. At the core of one of Madison Avenue's most banal office towers, the architects installed a soaring lobby that surpasses even Lauren's blue-blood fantasies."

Thanks for posting this photo!

What occurred to me was that at least ONE of these three fabulous people MUST be a guest judge on Top Design one day, wouldn't you agree?

Maybe we should write to Bravo, if they haven't already thought about it yet.

Yeah, inquiring minds want to know....Did you check out their bedroom and medicine cabinet when you visited? Any ceiling mirrors or pole dancing poles?

Thanks for the pics.

It's great to see a couple that consists of two fully-formed, vibrant beings. I love Peter -- what he does, the comfortable style he dresses himself, and the fact that he ADORES his wife (and vice versa). Forget celebrity marriages ala two tortured, addicted souls finding temporary comfort with one another and loudly proclaiming they are now cured, have found true love --"proven" by the new tattoos festooned on their bods blah blah blah. You just know they are the real deal.

Never tire of reading about them poodles -- thanks!

This picture is now my screensaver. It is fan-tast-ic. Laura and Peter are incredibly adorable together -- and clearly devoted to each other -- and she is actually my hero.

I totally agree. Laura and Peter make a great couple and you can sense by the proud way they speak of each other and the way they look at each other that they are devoted and totally adore each other. I love how Peter refers to her as "My girl" and that "I waited 50 years for this girl" and how Laura said of him (paraphrased) "I'm keeping him even though he runs like a girl"

I would love to hear their story. I wish someone would interview them so we could find out more about this great couple and how they met.

Hey guys, since you've been there, maybe you can answer this question if it is not too personal. I've wondereed ever since they showed the family hunting for Frank the turtle and Laura said "I hope he didn't go upstairs", Does that mean that Laura's loft has another level to it that wasn't shown? How many bedrooms does it have? And do the nannies live with them too or do they just work during the day and then go home?
Thanks

Less of a comment, more of a sidenote really.. however, ive been rewatching season 2 of Project Runway and have found that in the Clothes Off Your Back challenge, Kirsten looks particularly like Laura. Almost like a mother-daughter feel. Another thing, Guadalupe reminds me of Angela from season 3 due to their tacky aesthetic with the whole "flower" gross-ness. Anyways, that is all.
