ARMONIA DECOR / MEGHAN BOB PHOTOGRAPHS
I discovered this amazing designer on Love Design the other day, and have already developed a serious romance. Her name is Emily Ruddo, and she is the LA based owner of Armonia Decor.

I must profess my love for Style at Home, they always feature the most beautiful rooms and interesting articles. This particular one called “One room, two styles” is styled by Samantha Pynn, who’s style I also happen to adore (and I know a lot of you do too), lets take a look at some of them:
*
This pretty dining space was turned into a makeshift home office by adding a table lamp and a tray of desk accessories. Samantha advices the use of trays for easy recovery when the table is inevitably needed for dining. And aren’t those dining chairs amazing? They are actually spray lacquered garden chairs!
*
This vanity is rendered ultra feminine with pale pink accessories layered over a curvy silver mirror. Samantha suggests displaying jewelry and makeup accessories for easy access and organization. BTW I’m in love with that feather photo, isn’t it beautiful? From what I understand it’s the work of Photographer Virginia Maconald, who also shot all the beautiful images for this article. Anyone know where to get a copy?
*
Another beautiful piece of art in the living room. Even I could live with a TV in my home if it was layered into the decor like this one. And aren’t the wallpapered cabinets awesome? It adds so much more depth to this space.
*
Light and airy, colorful and patterned. Just wow! Be sure to check out the entire article on Style at Home, there’s a lot more pictures like these ;)

I’ve been a huge fan of Amanda and Jolene of Domicile Interior Design for years now. In 2009 I featured a bedroom they designed (click here to see it), and it’s still one of my all-time favorites.
*
It made me wonder what it is it about their design style that is so unique?
*
First of all, they create these unusual color palettes. Beige, coral and yellow, not a color combo you see often, but the result is surprisingly wonderful. There’s this understated cheerfulness to it.
*
Second, their extensive use of brass and golden finishes. Isn’t that side table amazing?
*
I’m sure many of you recognize this dreamy home office from Rue Magazine. Beige yellow and turquoise this time.
*
Third, their impeccably arranged vignettes. Wish my desk looked like that =)
*
I featured this image in an earlier post about chic trays (click here to read it), photo via Rue Magazine. You can still enter my giveaway here to win a personalized acrylic tray ;)
*
The girls obviously master the art of mixing vintage with high end.
*
You can find beautiful hand made wall art here.
*
Pure eye candy.

Happy Weekend my Friends!!

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.
*
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.
