Wow take a look at that gorgeous fireplace! From what I can tell this is the home of Spanish interior designer Belén Domecq.
Here’s another beauty of a bedroom, courtesy of At Home Arkansas. It’s the bedroom of Interior Designer Cynthia Smiley. Notice how Cynthia uses textures to perfection. I also love how effortlessly she mixes styles in this room, just look at the Gustavian benches, the sleek modern bed frame, and the coastal elements and rattan bedside tables. The result is luxurious but far from pretentious.

According to At Home Arkansas, the paint color is Benjamin Moore Coastal Fog. To achieve this look, go for light colored fabrics in white, cream, beiges and grays. Pay extra attention to textures, and add a touch a color with toned down hues of peach, green and blue.
This beautiful bouquet of peach colored roses finishes of one of the bedside tables perfectly. The other one is topped with an equally pretty white coral.
This silver leafed dresser is decorated to perfection. The power of a perfect vignette is undeniable. Another closeup just because it’s so pretty. To read the article and view the source list, visit At Home Arkansas! Hope you enjoyed this room ;)

When I came across this picture on Decorati, my eyes were transfixed on those gorgeous green drapes. I love a good puke green, do you? Okay, more like olive green, but I love a lame joke ;)

Same view, less zoom. Another thing I love about this room is the way Gerald Tolomeo, the designer, combines classic with modern, and balances strict clean lines with organic shapes and fun pattern.

Notice how he carries the green into the dining area with the striped chairs.

New York Based interior designer Brett Beldock of Brett Design inc is behind this luxurious bedroom design:

I’m loving the over sized paisley wallpaper pattern in this bedroom. It certainly adds a lot of drama to the room. The color palette is soft but dramatic with taupe and smokey light blue. Adding to the drama is the heavy curtains mounted just underneath the ceiling, draping onto the floor, and the carefully planned lighting.

Zooming in we get to take a closer look at the bed. Notice the padded headboard.. it has got armrests! At the end of the bed Brett placed a Gustavian bench. I love the warm red color of the lamp shades too.

The wallcovering is called Rajapur by Cole & Son, the Gray and yellow Ikat pillow is available at Etsy and designed by Elegant Touch, and the drop dead gorgeous gray herringbone throw is available at Utmost Fashion.

This East Hampton home is designed by Larry Laslo and is a real classic beauty:
*
The focal point of this room is definitely the fireplace. It looks really tall. The wall above the mantel is decorated with a huge frame-less mirror with a round mirror framed in branches, layered above. I’ve seen a lot of mirror-on-mirror action lately. Do you like it?
*
See how the window is framed in a semi-circular arch from the inside, but is actually square.
*
The dining room is just the right balance between formal and casual. I like to call it “liveable”.
*
Is that a porcelain cabbage?
*
The foyer is light and welcoming with its white walls and dark floors. I like how it is kept really clean and simple. On another note, you won’t be late for anything with a clock that size..
*
For good measure, here is what the house looks like from the outside. I guess it’s a mansion rather than a house? Either way, it is simply beautiful.

San Francisco based design firm Charles De Lisle Workshop specializes in artisan designed furnishings, lighting and art. Who’s up for some artistic eye candy?
*
Have you ever seen a coffee table like that? A pile of rope in a glass box. It looks so much better that it sounds.
*
The ocean art on the right is really big. If you go back to the first picture, see how it is the perfect size behind the sofa, as if it was hanging right above it? Impressing design!
*
Absolutely love the heavy raw wood console with the beautiful vignette contrasting both the classic architecture and the very sleek modern furniture. I want this!
*
The golden side tables probably specially designed by Charles De Lisle Workshop. If you can’t afford custom, both Neiman Marcus and Z Gallerie have alternatives.
*
The Color Palette: Wall color would be something like BM Angelica.
*
A calm and beautiful bedroom of beige and crisp white on dark hardwood floor. I don’t understand how one can make an orange Arne Jacobsen egg chair (1958) look so elegant!
*
Door frame says it all…
*
The contrast between simple modern furniture, raw materials and classic beauty is readily visible in this dining room too. Take a look at that light fixture!
