Grasscloth + Chartreuse = Design Consensus
October 3, 2010 in Bedroom, Beige, Coastal, Green, Hottest Designers, Living room, Natural, Steal the Style, Wallpaper / Tiles / Murals
Wow, it’s been a crazy week around here, and sadly I haven’t had any time to blog. I’ll try and make up for it this week ;) Now for some inspiratin:
*
This fresh summery living room, designed by Phoebe Howard, has been in my inspiration files forever. I love the chartreuse (green) combined with the grasscloth wallpaper. Apparently, I’m not the only one:
*
This bedroom is designed by John Willey. Since both of these great designers chose this grasscloth/ chartreuse combination, there must be something to it, right?! Anyway, take a look at the green lining of the headboard and the bed skirt. It’s repeated (negatively) on the roman blinds, and I love how the it underlines the shapes, especially of the headboards. What do you think?
*
Did you notice that the rightmost leaf print is identical to the one Phoebe used in her living room design? Some things just go well together, I guess.
*
John painted the back of this adorable built-in shelf green too.

The ceiling is painted in Benjamin Moore Wales Green. The green Island Ikat is available at Quadrille Fabrics, and the brown and green geometric rug can be found at Vanderhurd. So, what do you think, is grasscloth wallcovering and chartreuse a good combination?

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..
