Dark Grey and green...


Oh my goodness friends... it has been quite a week!  I know it's not over but it is coming to an end right?  I am not complaining (much) this first full week of school for the kids and a ton have work are really taking their toll.  
It's funny, when life is crazy busy I seem to think of more things to add to the list, I want to have a party and I cannot get it off of my mind!  Okay I will stop with the rambling and imagine myself in this space with the touch of greenery to sooth my wild brain.

Shop design {industrial mix}


I am completely in love with this shop!  I have a thing for a mix of home goods and fashion though.  I think that they go hand in hand and that typically those who love to decorate love to dress in a similar fashion.  Don't you think?  

This space is fantastic, one of those shops I could spend too much money in and come home feeling very inspired!  I love the way the bright colors of the clothing play off of the relaxed darker furnishings.

Lifestyle in grey..


It is always a nice relief to do a little something creative when you get inspired.  These are just a few of the wonderful things I have been seeing out there and they make for a great combination in a sitting area don't you think?

Finished up..





I wanted to show you a little update on my vintage sofa.  I picked it up a little while back but have not had a chance to take a full picture of it.  I love it- I went with the dark grey linen and added vintage wheels to bring it up a little bit for the room.  I love love it!

What do you think?  Have you had much success with reupholtsering vintage pieces?

Heavy texture




Oh how I wish I was spending a lazy morning somewhere like this today..
But it is off to meet a client to select tile and stone and then back to designing a few up coming projects to be presented next week.

Grey Storage...




These bookshelves are fantastical!  I love the height of the base, it gives them a completely unusual look, in a good way.  Built-in book shelves always make me think of an older established home.  
The background is painted an even darker shade of grey which gives it some additional depth.

Euro Trash at home..



I don't know about you but I completely fell for this space in the latest issue of House Beautiful.  They mirrors in the stairway are so gorgeous! I wonder if this would work on a curved stairway?  
I might be trying that out.  The entire color palette or lack of is really light and bright, I love it.
This is the home of Annie Brahler from Euro Trash.  I came across their site last week and put it together with some of my favorite images from around the web. 




Funny note.. this is the second time I have seen a LV bag used in the photos of a house.  Love that- mostly because this is the bag I have been sweet on for a while...

for the boys...







This issue of Elle decor was super fantastic in my opinion!  The sofas in the first image make my head spin- they are so beautiful.  I love the non traditional furniture placement and sizing, it shows a very creative mind to think outside the normal relationships of pieces.  Altogether a beautiful space.

grey modern... love




This is a wonderful contrast of ideas.. I love the sliding metal door with the classic shutters and those Cherner chairs.  I want those chairs so so badly!  This just shows that they go with anything!

upholstery...









I am so excited today is the big day that I take my sweet new sofa to the upholsterer!  I know that sounds crazy but it took me a while to decide on the fabric and then the pillows and so now that the fabric has arrived I am so excited to get this project underway.  I chose a dark charcoal linen for the sofa and one of Windsor Smith's new fabrics from Kravet for pillows, Kaveka in Java.  I am going to mix in some vintage fabrics with them. 

It is going to be a completely different look for my space as my sofa now is slipcovered in natural linen.  Very exciting around here!  I will also be picking up some other pieces that I have been waiting for so I can finally take some photos of the new and improved dining room too.

What do you think?  Very dramatic right?

Grey office space




Oh how is it Monday once again??  What I would not give to have a (clean) office that is this fabulous!  Today is the day to get my ducks back into rows and get moving forward.  Last week seemed to fly past me like a freight train, so please forgive any unanswered emails or phone calls.  I have a new intern starting today and I am hopeful she can get me back on track here!

Wishing you a wonderful day of taking care of business!

Collected in Grey and Gold



It is so nice to realize that I am not the only one who needs to collect things like vintage textiles, and cameras and all kinds of other little goodies that are unnecessary to everyday life..

What about you what do you collect?  Have I asked this question before?  I need to know- it helps me feel more normal!

grey and lavender




Grey and lavender is a combination I don't think we see enough of.  I just love the soft combination!

This is a great way to treat an offset mantle also- they can always be so difficult.  

Happy Thursday already, I am not sure where the week disappeared to but thank goodness it is almost the weekend again!
