Quick peek at Atlanta loves..

Labels: accessories, furnishings, furniture shows, Inspiration, instagram, trade shows

Just a quick peek at my weekend in review from my instagram pics of Atlanta.

I had a really great time and was very happy with my first trip to the show. There were so many fun new vendors to discover and meet. As I sift through my pile of emails and catch up on everything here at the office I promise to post more on the great displays and lines that were there.

there has been talk...

Labels: France, greige, Inspiration, paris, shopping, travel

Over the past few weeks there has been talk of one of my favorite places in the world.. there has been talk of France and Paris around here. We have been talking about taking sometime and visiting and shopping to bring things back from this place that I love. My heart beats a little faster each time it comes up. Yes there are projects here and there are many many things going on but when talk like this starts a girl cannot help but to get excited and her brain starts to really turn and see what can be done. It is a little dream of mine and I am going to make it work.... soon.

These are some images of my last trip to Paris (I have many so I hope I have not shared any of these before) and they bring back memories. Wishing you a wonderful day filled with talk of the future!

Design Inspiration right now...

Labels: Design, Inspiration, Lighting, Mirrors

So I am curious... where do you find your design inspiration? I am hearing whispers that the blogs are taking a backseat to Pinterest ... What do you think?

You know I love me some Pinterest around here but really I find that photos that are arranged in a post with some text are equally inspiring and it is always nice to see some new photos that seem to come only from blogs and other sites.. and the interaction is so much fun!

Just checking - which way are you going?

Gardens of Portugal

Labels: garden, Inspiration, photography, spring, travel

I was just remembering a wonderful garden that I visited in Portugal a few years back. Day dreaming about it really. It was the most amazing place that I think I have ever been to. These are just a few pictures of the many many structures that made up the space. It was something that we just happened upon after lunch one day. Our waiter at lunch recommended that we go by and see it and we spent much of the afternoon exploring the huge terraced grounds and taking photos.

It reminds me of the coming of Spring and inspires me to get outside and make some changes!

Just inspiration..

Labels: accessories, day bed, greige, Inspiration, rustic wood, Texture

Some things just catch your eye and make your mind wander to wonderful places. I was wandering through my favorite blogs yesterday and came across something from Tine K Home and fell into their site... I love their product images... so dreamy! So greige...

Lately I have felt a little overwhelmed by all of the trends and what is going on in design. These types of things reign me in and help me to remember what I love so much simple, rustic, mixes filled with beautiful texture.

Inspiration (commercially speaking)

Labels: bars, commercial work, Design, design work, distressed wood, Inspiration, metal and wood

I am knee deep in the process of designing a commercial space right now and I am completely inspired by the work of AvroKO. We are taking the darker library approach with an industrial modern twist. I am excited to use some wood flooring treatments for paneling on the walls and adding a brick to the space to create a sense of age that is not already there. All of the details are like a layering effect in the space. I have found so many ideas and they are all swimming around up there just waiting to get down on paper and made in physical forms.

It should be fun to say the least!

Inspiration by invitation...

Labels: by invitation only, France, Inspiration, vintage

A few of my favorite things... French Chateau's, Peonies, vintage and Astier de Viallatte. Surrounding yourself with people and things you love is the ultimate luxury. They don't have to be the trendiest, newest and the most expensive or but they should be what makes you laugh, smile and bring you joy.

"To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion, to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly, to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart, to bear all cheerfully, to all bravely await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual unbidden and unconscious grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony."

William Henry Channing (1810-1884)

Today's post is part of a wonderful group of bloggers who have been brought together by Marsha over at Splenderosa. This quote is a great example of how so many of us would like to live. Stop by and see what everyone has come up with.

Wishing you a wonderful start to the short week!
