THE Chic Home Office

Raise your hand if you haven’t seen this home office before. I’m guessing there aren’t a lot of hands in the air. Then you probably also know that this is Designer Mary McDonald‘s private home office. The feature wall is hand painted by Artist Jefferson Miles, and the classic black and white fashion photos include framed tear-outs from magazines.

Get the look with this gorgeous chinoiserie wallpaper by Sarah Hardaker. As the name implies, this wallpaper has a grand pattern, I’d love to see this one on a wall. The best thing about it is that you can order the wallpaper with any color you’d like, so as to match your wall color, for no extra cost! I never knew that was possible anywhere.

You can read more about Mary and her designs in one of 1st Dibs great Style Compass Magazines!

Pulp Design Studios

February 18, 2011 in Bedroom, Classic, Glamorous, Gray, Hottest Designers, Living room, Modern, Powder Room, Silver

This cute little living room is designed by Pulp Design Studios. I love it when a room is decorated around a great piece of art, how could you better pay respect to such a fine element than by arranging everything around it?

*

The gray, maroon and green color palette is carried into the bedroom, with an addition of a vibrant plum (color of course).

*

The headboard is covered in a beautiful velvet damask fabric.

*

Now this is what I would call a gorgeous powder room! I have a huge thing for furniture with long tapered legs, it just looks so elegant. And the star pulls takes this sink console from gorgeousness to perfection. The damask wallpaper, mirror and sconces ain’t to shabby either (to say the least)!

*

A very intricate chandelier graces the ceiling of this lovely home office:

*

Which is decorated in a modest white and black palette. So classic yet dramatic.

*

And let’s top it of with this gorgeous bedroom. The walls and ceiling appears to be painted a light blue-gray color, a perfect backdrop to the rich brown woods and linens. Isn’t that bed spread fantastic?

Don’t you just love stumbling across fabulous furniture boutiques chock full of eye candy and inspiration? This was definitely the case when I came across SummerHouse Style (located in MS).

*

This fabulous boutique is owned by Interior Designer Lisa Palmer.

*

I’m such a huge fan of white accents on a rich brown wackground (typo, but it stays haha!!). Gorgeous!

*

Love this rich brown leather sofa, the nailhead trim makes it just perfect. Looks so good paired with this zebra ottoman coffee table, don’t you think?

*

Some white and brown bedroom inspiration. LOVE the chairs!

*

Another absolutely perfect sofa, paired with a beautiful mirrored coffee table.
