creating interest with wallpaper...

 

I am not the biggest fan of wallpaper (I have had to strip a bathroom of paper that was put on with industrial strength glue) but this is pretty amazing if you ask me.  I love the bold graphic nature of these pieces and their ability to completely change the feeling of age in the rooms.

What do you think are you a traditional wallpaper fan?

dark beauty..

 

Feeling so inspired by the contrast in black details right now.  I think almost every space needs a contrast and why not use black to make it happen?  I find that I do the same with fashion.. a little black goes a long way!

Wishing you a wonderful Wednesday!

Grey and blue in the bedroom...

I wanted to thank you for your great advice on the lounges for the pool!  Who knew!  I stumbled across this clean clean bedroom and thought to myself what a relaxing palette.  Love the sconces, so simple they almost hide on the grey walls.

London Simply

When I saw this bedroom picture on pinterest I was in love.. upon investigation now I realize why.  I have posted bits and pieces of this beautiful home before.  The detail of the flooring transition in the hallway and the beautiful kitchen just a few weeks ago.  This is the London home of Rose Uniacke and David Heyman.  I love the simple clean feeling of everything with that touch of elegance that keeps it interesting, perfection.  I am not sure that there is a need to elaborate on my part it really speaks for itself!

Detailed..

 What a wonderful gift to be able to create such detail... I wish that we made more things well these days, so much is just slammed together with just the thought of how cheap it can be made and how quickly..  I love to find people who believe in the quality of things and the talent and time it takes to make them well.. As I get older I find a need for things to be made well and stand the test of time with grace and beauty like this..

I hope you are enjoying your Spring so far!  The weekend was beautiful here and the week promises to be warmer and full of surprizes!  Happy April!

intricate detail...

 

The detail is so amazing in this space.  I cannot even imagine in person how beautiful it must be!  I hope you are having a wonderful Tuesday!  Today I am so excited to visit a little vintage fabric pop up shop.  I cannot wait to share my finds with you.  I will admit that fabrics are one of my weaknesses, that along with books and purses and shoes, and clothes, and side tables... okay so I have a few weaknesses but fabric is at the top of the list- I suppose it could be worse right!?

Klismos dining chairs...

I am totally obsessed with the Klismos chairs, it seems I am not alone.  The chairs design dates back to the ancient Greeks so I see some staying power.  There are so many styles and types currently available it can be hard to find just the right piece.

 

These are beautiful and the legs are so elegant.

 

Clean and contemporary and I love the boxy feel of the back.

 

Simple and modern with upholstered seats and nail head detailing

.

I love the open rope style seat on these.

 

Contemporary legs and an open back.

These are the beauties that I am waiting on for my own kitchen with a little bit of it all and the contrast in color they are perfect for me!

contrasts..

 

I find that contrast is so necessary in a space, it doesn't have to be as obvious as this, which I love, but it can be simple and textural as well.  This combination is beautiful and interesting, the antlers make it for me.

I hope your weekend is full of beautiful days- we are expecting another 80 degree day here in California before it cools again.  If you are visiting us from One Kings Lane- Welcome - we are happy you are here!

Finding inspiration at the LA mart... January

I truly enjoy going to market, no matter where you go it is very inspirational.  There are so many talented creative minds that work on the showrooms it is really a treat to see most of the time.  This past weekend we visited the LA Mart for the show and found some great new pieces and some really great displays.  

Two's and Tozai never disappoint!  This book display was amazing!

 

The Walls in this room were painted gold and were super cool.

 

Love the paper runner- great idea!

 

I think I need this even if I have no place for it, so sculptural and cool!

 

Our best seller the star pendant with mirror.. love!

 

This is my favorite chandelier and I have been desperately trying to find a special place for something like this.. I know that one day it will happen.

I am off to Las Vegas for the furniture show there today, wish me luck!
