primary colors.





How do you feel about using primary colors in your home? I honestly can't decide if I like it or not, although it definitely has an artsy vibe.

(Yes, more from photographer Magnus Anesund.)

Setting the tone for Monday. Ready, go.

Lovey interior spaces (and rugs!) by Marcia Weese - I was fortunate enough to live in this beautiful during a summer spent in Chicago.

happy halloween.



Hope everyone has a super awesome (and safe) weekend full of delicious treats!

I was doing some pretty mundane research for a client and I stumbled across these beauties - instantly brightened up my day.

Modular shelving systems is where it's at. Follow the grid and create various compositions. Johannes Herbertsson and Karl Henrik Rennstam / RVW.

Now this is one apartment I would definitely enjoy exploring. I posted her amazing paper recipe awhile back. Additional interior images here.

I fall for sibling duos - two is always better than just one. This mix and match shelving unit is scrumptious. I would have a field day cluttering it up and I'd start by adding loads of plants.

(Their story is pretty cute, too.)

Don't get me wrong, I love color, but there's something soothing about all this white.

living in art.




I love how this space completely feels like an artist's canvas. That painted yellow block around the window is genius, and of course I'm totally obsessed with those colorful kitchen cabinets.

the glamourai.





Do you read The Glamourai? Kelly has a great, unique style, and she's seriously gorgeous.

Recently she shared a step-by-step on how to tie your own turban with a scarf. I think headwear can be adorable, but I'm not so sure I can pull it off.

fancy finds.



Currently coveting: couch, lamp and cocktail ring from 1stdibs.

(That lovely couch is actually located just down the road from our studio at this amazing store - if only I had the funds to give it a good home)

monday hooray.



Monday means the announcement of our Calendar giveaway winners. Boy, were we honored to have 171 entries! Blog readers, ya'll are the best. To say thank you, we picked three winners instead of just two.

And the lucky winners are Lesley and Michelle and Maia. Congrats to you all, and thanks!

We have been creating all kinds of paper flowers and garlands for a new client of ours and while researching DIY crafty options I found this beautiful portfolio.
Do you prefer Valentines Day or Halloween?

I do like folding clothes! Who knew a laundry room could be so glorious.
Please excuse my hodge-podge posting today - I am feeling a bit under the weather.

mornings.



They aren't really my thing. I am thinking that this friendly espresso maker could possibly help me out. Happy Weekend y'all!

hooray.



We finally got our new cards up in the shop and we are pretty proud of this batch. Have a favorite?

Khai Liew restored early Australian furniture for over 20 years before starting his own workshop in 1996. His honest attention to detail and workmanship is highly admired by many. Image #1: The Gillian, solid English limewood sideboard is on the tip top of my must have list.
