This bedroom, designed by Samantha Pynn really caught my eye the first time I saw it, but the more closely I look, the more I love it!

Blue and Orange Living room

February 11, 2011 in Beige, Bright, Chic, Color Palette, Living room, Modern, Steal the Style, White

Images via House Beautiful, photography by Victoria Pearson

I LOOOVE the living room of Melissa Warner, one part of the design trio Massucco Warner Miller. Her home was featured on House Beautiful a while ago, and I couldn’t help featuring it here in case any of you haven’t seen it yet (and If you have seen it, it doesn’t hurt seeing it again, right?)

*

It’s all about the details, and Melissa’s home is a great example of that. The blue sofa is a vintage find. Aren’t the circle pillows awesome? Adds such beautiful texture.

*

Love how she adds color in fun ways like here; through candy and peaches. Do you ever try to match what you serve with your decor? (I have to admit I sometimes do)

*

I love the shell lamp on her desk (which is skirted and has a glass top!!). Jonathan Adler has a similar lamp in his collection.

*

Melissa shares some great advice on colors in the HB interview, it’s definitely worth a read.

*

Wall color is BM Soft Chamois. Keeping the walls pale, add blues, orange and pink. Balance the bright colors with white. Be on the lookout for fun showstopping pieces and exciting patterns.

*

Circle Pillow, Orange Ikat Pillow, Blue Artwork, Coffee Table, Zebra Chair, Blue Table Lamp, Quarz Votive,

Beat this: that coffee table is only $504.00 at the CSN Stores! You can see the rest of Melissa’s home (her bedroom is really awesome!) and read the accompanying interview on House Beautiful.

Glamour by Tobi Fairley

February 4, 2011 in Bedroom, Blue, Bright, Chic, Classic, Color Palette, Glamorous, Gray, Hottest Designers, Living room, Luxurious

I’m sure most of you remember this unforgettable cover of House Beautiful. The room is designed by Tobi Fairley (of course :)

*

The blue color is mesmerizing, don’t you think? It’s such a fresh and clear color, but not at all overbearing. I was a bit surprised to see (what I believe is the) un-edited photos of the same room. The colors are so different:

*

But beautiful all the same. Isn’t it amazing what color alone can do for a room? The bluer version comes off as more playful and daring, while the blue-gray (un-edited) colorway result in a more classic sophisticated look. I’m kind of fascinated with the “empty” painting above the sofa. I feel creativity flowing just by looking at it!

*

Living room paint colors: Poolside and Sky

*

Moving on to the bedroom, a real piece of eye candy.

*

Everything in this bedroom screams glamour to me, the tufted velvet headboard, the shimmering bedspread, mirrored dressers and the gorgeous sun mirror. But most of all, the lamps *swoon*

*

And here is the un-edited version. I love both colorways of this room too, but the pops of pink in the former two images definitely added a little something extra.

*

I have to say I’m kind of obsessed with those table lamps!

*

Aaaand that’s it! So tell me, which colorway would you choose for your living room / bedroom, the fresh fun blues, or the sophisticated grays?
