You know when you just stumble across a photo of a beautiful space, and you just NEED to see what the rest of the home looks like? This was the case when I first saw this room. Luckily I did manage to track down the designer behind this beauty, and her name is Megan Winters. Let’s take a little tour, shall we?
Sneaking a peek at Osbourne & Little’s spring collection left me feeling really inspired. The color palettes are so creative, and the patterns are more amazing than ever. Great styling too!

Terracotta walls, leopard area rug on chevron floors, white tufted leather sofa and snake art. Could we expect less fabulousness from Choo mogul (lame pun very much intended ;-) Tamara Mellon?
This picture had me at hello. Love how they painted the walls, bookshelf and window frames in a high gloss rich blue color. Orange always works well with blue, they aren’t complimentary colors for nothing =)
When it comes to design, I tend to lean towards the classics. And that’s where Restoration Hardware comes into the picture. “They” have this way of twisting the classics into something new.. and still manages to keep the classic part of it. If you know what I mean? Case in point: the tufted sofa.

But what really caught my eye were these spectacular birdcage chandeliers! Caged pendants and lanterns are nothing new, but actual crystal chandeliers? Amazing! They come in 5 different sizes. I’d have to sell my car to be able to afford the XS one ;-)

Have you noticed RH’s approach to design? It’s all about scale. Super size, symmetry, and the power of many. All done in a neutral color palette with interesting textures and finishes. And I love it!

Last thing to catch my eye was the gorgeous artwork. They are original drawings.

It’s Friday.. let’s just pretend :-) Have a great Weekend!
