splish splash

i took this picture when i was down in charleston, SC for a friends wedding. i was amazed by the beautiful architecture and the history in this town. this house caught my attention b/c of its neutral tones and big red door which added the splash of color it needed. it's something to keep in mind when decorating a room. sometimes all you need is a simple decor with a splash of boldness. a little color can make a huge statement.

serenity now

this is my clients living room in pound ridge, ny. their country house is a great escape for them after a long work week in NYC but this room in particular is one of their favorites. the soft blues, whites and natural tones in the room give you a sense of serenity. it's like bringing home a taste of the beach and dropping it directly in your LR. grab a book, a magazine or simply stir a cocktail and grab some friends to sit down, hang out and enjoy life.
