Current Obsession: Glass Display Boxes

August 10, 2010 in Blue, Chic, Coastal, Glass Display Boxes, Living room, Modern

This image from Elle Decor keeps popping into my mind since I originally posted it about a year ago:

I love everything about this room; the cool blue walls, the slightly deeper blue moldings, the natural textiles, not to mention the lantern in the ceiling. But this post is about another element in this room; the glass box in the back. Isn’t it a neat display? Or would you rather it be filled with water and colorful fishes?

Kathleen Hay’s Coastal Designs

July 28, 2010 in Classic, Coastal, Dining room, Green, Hottest Designers, Living room, Lounge, Natural, Nook, Summer, Yellow

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..

POTTERY BARN

A coastal vignette of candles and corals. At first I thought the tabletop was filled with sand, which would be a bit inconvenient.. then I realized it’s a table runner.. =)
