Mid-century Soft Mod

Warm wood tones with vibrant accents, elevate this mid-century modern home located in Houston, Texas. The exterior embraces clean, simples lines with stacked, multi-level stone bringing a pleasing texture to the eye. Large black trimmed windows and doors allow an abundance of natural light to flow through the home.  

The eye catching chandelier enhances the modern feel to this living room space, as well as the textured stone fireplace, with warm wood paneling. Light coloured flooring throughout this great room opens up the room and allows the space to feel larger. 

Design of the Week: Pretty Pastels

The neutral backdrop has allowed the pastel accents to truly pop! Shades of coral, blue and yellow give a bright and cheerful atmosphere and the black, zebra area rug anchors the space and brings it all together. A great design tip - if you are not ready to commit fully to a wallpaper, adhere the paper to canvases and create the perfect wall art!

Design of the Week...

A masculine retreat featuring dark, suede walls, a cow hyde area rug and an oversized sectional in suiting grey fabric. The unique two sided fireplace adds warmth and a cozy element to the space. I think we would lose our men for hours in this room!

Top Nursery Designs

Having a baby is one of the most joyous occasions and designing the perfect nursery can be a daunting task! Here are some beautifully designed spaces that can transition through the years of newborn to toddler without having to create a brand new look.

Think playful and whimsical and forget the matching furniture sets! This amazing rug brings texture to the floors in soft pink and neutral hues.

Use bold coloured accessories with soft neutrals. Spend your money on versatile furniture that can be used for the years to come and does not scream baby nursery!

White subtle walls with accents of warm wood tones allows this transitional nursery to sooth any newborn.

How stunning is this soft, billowing fabric lining the ceiling and draping onto the wall? Do not be afraid to create a bold feature wall. This design is so successful due to its soft neutral and unisex pallet.

Light fixtures are another easy way to add style and flair to your nursery. I love seeing the baby's name in lights!

There is nothing better than adding a pop to any room with a striking pattern. Here are a few easy ways to add pattern to your space!

Wallpaper

Wallpaper is one of my favorite ways to add a beautiful pattern! Choose a bold pattern that will create a statement in your room.

Tile

To make a subtle statement, select a plain tile and lay it in a unique way, such as the herringbone subway tile!

Accessories & Fabrics


Add pattern with accessories, rugs, pillows and curtains to add a pop that can easily be changed out! Don't be afraid of layering patterns! The more patterns, the more interest.

This fashion blogger has a striking eye on layering textures and creating a warm welcoming space with a minimal approach. The animal hide layered on top of the chunky knitted area rug is one of my favorite looks and she has done it so well!
