Dear Neighbors and Friends,

In 1874, my family established Jacob Schoen & Son Funeral Home and for five generations, we have cared for the families of New Orleans during their time of need. Providing only the highest standard of funeral service to all, regardless of financial circumstance, is ingrained in our business and continues today as our heritage. One constant in 144 years of service is our strong commitment to the people we are privileged to serve. Every life deserves a special time of honoring and celebrating; we are here to serve you. As a fifth generation Schoen, I am proud to return home to Jacob Schoen & Son Funeral Home and further my family’s legacy. We have a rich history in our community. To better serve New Orleans, we have embarked on a complete restoration of our iconic Canal Street property - including the addition of the new J. Garic Schoen Memorial Chapel. This is our commitment to you, neighbors and friends - a pledge to our beloved city. From our family to yours, we invite you to join us in the renewal by visiting Jacob Schoen & Son Funeral Home. Please give me a call at 504-482-2111 and I will personally arrange a tour for you.

Sincerely,

Patrick M. Schoen Managing Partner www.schoenfh.com

Nosotros, orgullosamente, servimos a nuestra, comunidad Hispana. 3827 CANAL STREET, NEW ORLEANS, LA 70119 (504) 482-2111

A s the temperatures drop in late September and cooler weather arrives, the city is filled with the sights and sounds of al fresco dining. Locals and visitors alike flock to romantic courtyards and open air dining spaces to enjoy seasonal cocktails and the relaxed fine dining that New Orleans does so well. Our season for al fresco dining may be short; but what it lacks in time, it more than makes up for with personality and style. Two of the most popular outdoor settings, Avo on historic Magazine Street and Sylvain nestled in the French Quarter, are also known for their outstanding fare. An evening at either popular restaurant will never disappoint. Al Fresco Romantic Courtyards and Plein Air Dining by katy danos | photos by leslie gamboni

AVO 5908 Magazine St.

At Avo, New Orleans-born chef Nick Lama prepares modern Italian dishes that reflect both his cherished family recipes and his originality. The ivy-walled indoor/outdoor courtyard has a retractable roof and the elegant outdoor candlelit dining room oozes with ambience. The staff is gracious, the cocktails creative (they have a fantastic happy hour), and everything on the menu is mouthwatering. As the sun goes down, head to Avo – flickering candles, air conditioning if needed, and an inventive menu all set the stage for a truly special al fresco dining experience.

Just one block off of Jackson Square, Sylvain is tucked down a narrow side alley in what was once a carriage house built in the 1700s. Indoors, the bar scene bustles and the charming dining room is always filled. But in their courtyard, distinctive architecture, gaslit lanterns, and banana and sweet olive trees create a perfect spot for lingering over drinks and Southern classic dishes with an elevated spin. French fries and Taittinger champagne is a regular on the menu and it can't get more authentically New Orleans than this intimate Quarter setting.

SUSU stall AND HER ART-FILLED RENOVATION IN THE GARDEN DISTRICT

By katy danos | photos by joshua brasted

ADORE • FALL 2018

W hen Susu and Andrew Stall purchased their Italianate style house in the Garden District twelve years ago, their friends and family thought they were crazy. As Susu explains, "all we had inspected was the structure; we knew everything and I mean everything else had to be updated." But sometimes you can just feel it in your bones. They knew immediately that this grand old house, built in 1879 by noted German architect William Fitzner, could easily become their dream home with plenty of room for four pre-teen children and their art collection to grow. Well, okay, maybe not so easily. Though the stunning architecture was sound, a two and half year renovation was required to bring these particular old bones – plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling among other things – up to modern day speed. Fitzner, who immigrated to New Orleans in 1859 and is credited for building such gems as Dominican College and the former brewery which now houses the National World War II Museum, would surely be pleased.

the fine antiques and breathtaking art. As Trudy points out, "this house with its millwork, moldings, and finishes would be gorgeous even if empty, but Andrew and Susu both have a stylish way of mixing things up which brings a relaxed vibe to all of the rooms." The living rooms and hall are coated in Benjamin Moore's sophisticated neutral, Grant Beige, at full and half strength, which allows the vibrant art to take center stage. In the parlor, the color cue comes from the exquisite 18th century rock amethyst chandelier from Soniat House Hotel and Antiques. The room features a black marble fireplace which is original to the house, aubergine Fortuny drapery and a pair of sofas dressed in mushroom velvet. A knockout abstract landscape by Alison Stewart is the perfect counterpoint to the dramatic French gilt

"We wanted to honor the history and craftsmanship of the house for sure, but we also wanted to keep it fresh and lively. Andrew and I both love to entertain, as do our kids, so an inviting floor plan and extremely comfortable furnishings are key. We use every inch of this house, including the pool house. It was important to us that our large extended families and our kids and their friends would want to hang out here and trust me they do," says Susu with that kind of knowing grin that comes from being almost across the finish line of raising four kids in a home you truly love. With renowned architect Caroline Ferguson on board, the Stalls set about opening walls and adding bathrooms, a kitchen, French doors galore, and a pool. Interior designer Trudy Hurley assisted with the fabric and furnishing selections; full-scale upholstered furniture in durable fabrics provide the perfect balance to

mirror that the Stalls purchased in Paris. Antique French bergeres in a Manuel Canovas stripe, a bench covered in purple cut velvet, and a lilac side chair continue the soft color story. As you enter the second living room, a large- scale work by Nicole Charbonnet, one of the first paintings the couple acquired for the house, and a pair of Andrew Bucci figural abstracts lead the way to bolder colors and shapes – a grand piano, vibrant accents of persimmon and poppy, and an Yves Klein D'or cocktail table. Let's talk about that drop dead gorgeous table! Designed by the French artist, Yves Klein, and patented in the early 1960s, only a handful of these cocktail tables are made each year. As an ultimate abstract art piece, the line between function and art is blurred and the sheer visual power it brings to a room is intoxicating. Each signed and

love color which is evident in the lively Elemore Morgan landscapes that fit snugly above the dining room transom, the luscious glazed walls and stunning marble floors in the powder room, and the beautiful Bradley Sabin ceramic art installation commissioned for the stairway. Stronger color and hardworking upholstery show up in the family den. Anchored by a rug bought during a family trip to Istanbul, a seriously cozy Italian sectional in linen velvet, white cowhide side chairs, and deep cushy club chairs in Holly Hunt Etoile velvet can seat the whole family and then some. More dramatic art fills the space – a large painting by Mike Williams and a stack of works by Dana Ruth Harvey – acquired from Cole Pratt Gallery on Magazine Street. "What we love about our home," says Susu, "is that it is filled with things we personally select. Andrew loves landscapes and I adore color and unique details; the house is definitely us!"

numbered plexiglass, glass, and steel table, available in one specific size only, is shipped from Paris and installed right on site. It's an all day affair. Three thousand pieces of crumpled 24 karat gold sheets are placed in the table one by one before it is sealed; Susu was even invited to place some of the pieces herself. "Andrew had long admired the iconic tables, so I surprised him with one for our anniversary," Susu explained. "We love it! It's so glamorous yet totally easy to maintain." A persimmon pallette with layers of apricot and muted corals continues in the art and antiques-filled dining room. Hanging above the French buffet de corps are two oil on paper works by Andrew Bucci dated from the 1950s; sitting on the dining table are a pair of candlesticks by ceramic sculptor Bradley Sabin and atop the bronze sconces are two additional Bucci abstracts – all tied together by an envelope of warm silk wallpaper. The Stalls

Flagstone excavated from the original side yard and used for the pool and patio area gives it that "always been there" feel and a fabulous painting by Ashley Longshore, commissioned for the breakfast room, is a nod to the present state of affairs in this old house. As Susu laughs, "we wanted the kids to want to hang out here; we love the chaos of family life and this house is activity-central for sure." So many decorative touches in the house are true to the couple's personalities. Andrew, who owns Stall L'Hoste Investments, avidly collects works by Southern artists and Susu, who owns SOSUSU, a women's clothing boutique, has a passion for fashion and individual style. Dressmaker details such as greek key trim on living room sofas, luxurious upholstered walls trimmed with grosgrain ribbon in the den, and a sophisticated yet playful mix of patterns throughout the entire house are all so Susu.

I t goes without saying that my Ashley Longshore painting makes me happy!

ADD SHINE TO YOUR HOME AND WARDROBE

STAY

By heather burkett

A little gilding goes a long way. Take a cue from the golden autumnal tones of fall and hone in on gold accessories for your wardrobe and decor. You’ll beam in whimsical earrings inspired by organic silhouettes, stacks of bangles, and bold statement necklaces. Create a luxe moment at home with metallic lamps or side tables for added drama. Matte, glitzy, or with a touch of sheen, gold elements create a flashy fusion between classic and contemporary styles – leaving room for interpretation and plenty of opportunity to shine.

In addition to housing the hooch, a built-in bar or bar cart is the perfect place to raise a glass to personal style. A martini shaker, good corkscrew, and a variety of alcohol and mixers are basics. Colorful coasters, monogrammed napkins, and good looking decanters are where it gets fun. Get your creative juices flowing with recipe books for both cocktails and mocktails and a collection of glasses for your signature drink. Handsome bar tools and colorful accessories will definitely raise the bar. By catherine campbell

W hen we graduated from Tulane University in 1985, we beelined for Manhattan – Bryan to become an actor and Katy to live the life of a creative. Having grown up in a place so steeped in tradition and history, New Orleans was going to be hard to top. New York City seemed like the logical next step and the world was our oyster.

KATY: I convinced my parents that this was my "graduate" school. Maybe I wasn't going to leave with a lot of money, but I was planning on earning my PhD in all things stylish and creative. I landed on Seventh Avenue at the height of the 80s, learned the fashion industry, and freelanced as an interior design gal-Friday every chance I could get. Oh... and I saw my friend Bryan in play after play. BRYAN: Performing on Broadway was my dream, which meant leaving the security of New Orleans and family connections – I was green but determined. Of course, the Beach, which my grandfather founded, was never far from my mind. Once, while I was rehearsing a workshop of a new show with Elaine Stritch, the choreographer's assistant ran up to me with a crazed look in his eyes and started

reciting every possible fact about the Zephyr roller coaster and Pontchartrain Beach. At the end of his dissertation, he asked me why it closed. I joked, "it may be my fault; I wanted to be an actor." Fast forward to the millennium. With aging parents and the inevitable tug home, we longed for a chance to spend more time in New Orleans – this time as adults. Short visits turned into longer visits until there was no denying – this was our place. BRYAN: Once I was back, I was stunned by how many people wanted to talk about Pontchartrain Beach. Strangers would come up to me to tell me their stories and memories. When my first book about my mother came

out, I was deluged with "why don't you write a book about Pontchartrain Beach?" The plan was hatched.

KATY: There's something about having a certain amount of accomplishments behind you or maybe it's turning fifty or maybe the process of losing your parents, but we started to look at our parents and grandparents with a very different eye. We were really thinking about where we're from – genetically and spiritually – and how we wanted to give back. With the Tricentennial in sight, we took the plunge. We knew that if we didn't tell these stories, they would be lost forever. In a collection of personal stories, rare photographs, and memorabilia, we present this portrait of a bygone place and time. It's definitely a New Orleans story like no other.

SCORE MAJOR STYLE POINTS By heather burkett FASHION GAME CHANGERS

T raditions, pride, play, and rivalry – there's nothing like football season in the South! The energy is electric, the devotion unparalleled, and the fandom unwavering. Football fever and game day gear have never looked so good, so show your team spirit by tackling your attire like a pro. With sweltering temps plateauing far into the "fall" season, keep your summer staples that bleed team colors close at hand. Be tailgate party-strong by kicking up your stadium style with playful accessories that boast collegiate colors or Saints black and gold.

As the stadium lights burn bright, go head-to-head in a match up of dream team colors. Accessories like belts, earrings, and handbags are fall football favorites. Throw in spirited barware and some well-placed tiger stripes, some bold gold, or waves of green and you'll be ready to cheer for the home team in great style. Big points to these tailgate trends. Suit up – it's game time.
