Classic Luxury: Mint Green

April 5, 2011 in Bathroom, Bedroom, Classic, Color Palette, Dining room, Feminine, Green, Hottest Designers

Time for some classic design inspiration. With all the color going on lately, this feels like a much needed break (no offense to bright pretty colors, we still love you). This particularly beautiful home is designed by Alexandra Rae.

*

The star of this dining room, with the calm minty color at a close second, is the amazing chandelier.

*

The marble fireplace ain’t too shabby either.

*

Paint color matches BM Dried Parsley. The fun thing about color is that it never stops to amaze; it looks sooo much more minty in the photo!

*

A beautiful beige and mint green bedroom. The glass table lamps and the mirrored chests adds a bit of glamour, wouldn’t you say?

*

Upon closer inspection, you can see that she added some subtle touches of yellow too.

*

The master bathroom is yet another shade of mint, a fresher cleaner one at that. Love the way Alexandra paired it with pink here.

*

Paint color is BM Cucumber.

Hot Shot: Gorgeous Green Curtains

January 5, 2011 in Classic, Green, Hottest Designers, Living room, Nook, White

I find it hard not to love this beautiful living room. It’s designed by Christina Murphy and was featured on House Beautiful. Green is one of the colors I’ve never ever stopped loving, how about you?

Grasscloth + Chartreuse = Design Consensus

October 3, 2010 in Bedroom, Beige, Coastal, Green, Hottest Designers, Living room, Natural, Steal the Style, Wallpaper / Tiles / Murals

Wow, it’s been a crazy week around here, and sadly I haven’t had any time to blog. I’ll try and make up for it this week ;) Now for some inspiratin:

*

This fresh summery living room, designed by Phoebe Howard, has been in my inspiration files forever. I love the chartreuse (green) combined with the grasscloth wallpaper. Apparently, I’m not the only one:

*

This bedroom is designed by John Willey. Since both of these great designers chose this grasscloth/ chartreuse combination, there must be something to it, right?! Anyway, take a look at the green lining of the headboard and the bed skirt. It’s repeated (negatively) on the roman blinds, and I love how the it underlines the shapes, especially of the headboards. What do you think?

*

Did you notice that the rightmost leaf print is identical to the one Phoebe used in her living room design? Some things just go well together, I guess.

*

John painted the back of this adorable built-in shelf green too.

The ceiling is painted in Benjamin Moore Wales Green. The green Island Ikat is available at Quadrille Fabrics, and the brown and green geometric rug can be found at Vanderhurd. So, what do you think, is grasscloth wallcovering and chartreuse a good combination?
