THINGS I LIKE

SEEING RED


 Red... its timeless, its classic - and everytime we move, I say I'm not going to have red in the house again. And everytime, that fails. A wonderful color that add vibrance and warmth to a room and somehow makes it a little more appealing...




 A color that's attainable in practically every design element you can think of, look beyond pillows and accessories to add a hint of red. The red rug above is unexpected and unassuming- the Provencial feel of the room remains, yet gains excitement with the floor. Same with the lampshades below... these spaces with otherwise distinct color palettes are enlivened by the simplicity of the one hint!
