...omitted as what is included. Recent hotels that echo the gospel include Jonathan Adler's Parker Palm Springs, styled to resemble the rambling estate of a madcap aunt, and Christian Lacroix's Htel du Petit Moulin in Paris, with suites decked out in couture illustrations and a wild m??lange of texture and color. What all these disparate projects have in common is an aversion to the white-box mentality. "I like white, and you need neutral things," says Wearstler, "but to have a room all in white?I would go crazy...

Despite our best efforts, illusions invariably end. And if leaders like Morales choose the wrong waters for their already beaten barges, they will only condemn their constituencies to poverty and instability when commodity prices fall or fossil fuels run out.
