Just came across designer Kathleen Hay and I’m already hooked! Kathleen creates the most beautiful spaces with a lot of reference to nature.

I’m starting to realize I have a slight obsession with seashell print fabrics. The color of the accent pillow is totally inspired by the seashell prints on the wall, and I can’t help but think about Maya at Completely Coastal, she picked her wall color right from her favorite shell. So creative =)

Back to Kathleen.. there’s just something about a blue and green color palette like this.. it always makes me think of grass and the sky.. Kathleen’s portfolio is chock full of gorgeous photos, and they are really high res too, so you get to see all the beautiful textures she combines in her work. I urge you to take a look!

Simple, light, airy and coastal.. what a beautiful living room. I love how the circles break up the clean lines and squares in this room.

Those dining chairs are impressive! Very visually heavy too..

OMG, these rooms are GORGEOUS!!!! Wowsers!!! I love, love, LOVE the dining room with the fireplace. The chairs with the three fabrics are nail head trim are fabulous. The chandelier is gorgeous too. And the living room…. love the moulding on the walls. That’s actually similar to what I want to do on a wall in our dining room.
Kathleen Hay might be my new favourite designer!! :-)

P.S. Any idea why the pics in your Hollywood Glam post from last November aren’t showing up??

I’m with Kelly, I am dying over here!! There are so many elements here that I would LOVE to have, that chandelier, the grid paneling (which me and my hubby are going to attempt to do in our home as well!), and the chairs with the circles! It’s too much!!! Thank you for sharing this, I didn’t know about Kathleen’s work.
PS. Thanks for your comment about me in my painting clothes, hee hee! You are too sweet :)

I have those fantastic sofa chairs in my files as another great example of how awesome “theme upholstered” can look! Just love them!!

Love the chairs love the table, but they don’t seem to go together the table to too small and the chairs are to bulky or vice versa,

I love her style and especially the third living room – I just finished a post about it a few days ago!
