New in the Design Studio

Found a set of 6 beautiful vintage Eames-style fiberglass chairs for you, made by Krueger. They are the perfect shade of dove gray. I cleaned them up and put them in the design studio today. Call or text me (828-407-1002) to come and get them!

Pillows with that Sofa?

After sharing all those fabulous sofas yesterday, I couldn’t help wanting to show you some of my favorite pillows. These soft works of art are so pretty! I posted a white back about the artist, Barbara Zaretsky of BZDesign. Her creations are hand dyed and hand embroidered. How amazing would these be scattered all around your nest to welcome Spring?!

White Sofas, Endless Summer Possibilities

Happy Thursday! Today, in preparation for summer, wanted to share some ideas for neutral, white sofas. With a white or an off-white sofa, your main seating becomes the foundation for any mood or style swing you happen to experience! Think about bringing some clean, cool summer comfort into your nest this season. Summer will be here before you know it!

DIMORESTUDIO in Milan {Freshly Designed}

Let’s start the week off right! This is the 18th century Palazzo home of designers Britt Moran and Emiliano Salci of DIMORESTUDIO. Coincidentally, one of the living room chairs was in the Soft Chairs, Creature Comforts post a while back. But I didn’t see the entire space until yesterday. I can’t believe how much I love this space. The simple layering, the lighting, the beautiful pieces, and the kitchen (after the jump) are simply stunning. I could go on and on, so I hope this space does for you what it does for me; it thrills my soul! Have a wonderful week!

Art To Scale

A large piece of art in an eclectic space is so nice. I love a gallery wall, too, but I love to see a piece of art cover or inhabit a wall on its own. It allows me to focus and really see what’s there, in the painting, photo, collage or whatever it is. Especially when there are lots of layers and textures in the room, a bold-sized piece of art is perfect to ground the space. And these spaces say it much better than I! Enjoy your weekend!
