Desk VS. Vanity

The main purpose of an office environment is to support its occupants in performing their job. Wouldn't you do a great job if this was your office?

and I would like to get dressed to go to the office here...................................................................................

In my future dressing room

Walls Define An Area

Tired of looking at boring, flat walls?

The best wall treatments don't fade into the background, but make a room a work of art.

Got Stripes?

I do. There are a million ways to fake the shape, size, form and flaws in a room. One of the best visual distractions is using stripes. Striped walls are by no means a new trend.  Striped wallpapers have been around for over a century.  However, updated stripe styles are making a resurgance in today’s modern interiors and not just on the walls. Here are some ideas in black and white with out looking like a prison uniform.............................

King Midas

King Midas is popularly remembered in Greek mythology for his ability to turn everything he touched into gold. And these days it seems that gold accents are all the rage. I usually like to mix metals, but lately I am loving all the gold hardware and accents. Bold choices for any room...............................................

The ICFF--International Contemporary Furniture Fair

I went to the ICFF show today at the Jacob Javits Convention Center. I usually don't have the attention span for these shows but it happened to be just the right size today. I saw so many amazing things and got so many great ideas! I will post my pictures from the show tomorrow. However, I did want to share some of the highlights right now...................................

How great is this for a kids room or basement?? Its called Imperial by Contra Forma, the innovative interpretation of  a  floor covering made of separate parts. It's designed to utilize floor space. Decorative pieces of Imperial are connected to create a rug with the potential to form many different configurations of shape, size and color............create your own style in your own space from the smallest of details..........create whatever your imagination inspires.............

Kindel Furniture, the Dorothy Draper Collection

Define, Divide and Decorate any space with this innovative Modulari Screen by Razortooth Design.   This unique modular system can be used as a room partition, window shade or as a decorative visual element. It looks incredible in person and comes in all different colors and patterns.

Pasha chair by The Chair Factory-- great  for either indoor or outdoor use.  They will fabricate the cushion from any fabric you choose. Aside from looking so cool, it is also very comfortable!! I didn't want to get up.

 Temporary Wallpaper......................................................................

 Yes, that's right, temporary wallpaper. It's self- adhesive, re-positionable, temporary, wallpaper that can be applied and removed effortlessly. There are many styles to choose from and most styles come in multiple color ways. It's an ideal solution for a rental, or for someone who tires easily of the current trends of the revolving design and home decor industry.

and they say zig zags are a BASIC decorative pattern............

Basic BUT amazing...............i love a good chevron and using it as an element in your decorating project is anything but basic. It's bold and graphic yet sophisticated and chic. Happy Sunday!!

In The Bedroom

Your bedroom should be your sanctuary. I love hotel bedding..........its clean, crisp and luxurious. These bedrooms are really easy to achieve.  Add some custom or personalized shams to your hotel bedding, made out of fabrics that reflect your personality, and you will have a very finished and polished look.

talk about color blocking

so aside from wanting to vacation here i think that this picture lends the perfect inspiration to color blocking. its such a huge trend this year in fashion and its spilling over into interiors. of course you dont have to be so bold and be trendy in the major rooms in your home but if you wanted to freshen it up a bit color blocked pillows or art could be a great addition to any room.
