It’s so nice to be back. I’ve been working on our house in London…super fun but time consuming. I’ve fallen in love with Apparatus lighting. They make the most fabulous lights. Here is their studio. Trapeze wall lights and Arrow pendant below. The paneling in this room is also the perfect backdrop for these modern lights.

Joseph Dirand’s Parisien apartment. The perfect merriment of classic and minimalist design.

A suede-covered Oscar Niemeyer chair. Obsessed with this chair!

A very tranquil monotone palate.

A huge chunk of marble with only a slight indent for the sink becomes the vanity. Waterworks fixtures.

The painting is by Lawrence Carroll. Pierre Jeanneret sofa and chairs.

Christian Liaigre’s 18th century Paris home. It is so simple yet elegant.

Christian Liaigre…timeless.

This image is small but this is a really cool swing…wouldn’t you love it in your bedroom?

I just discovered Michaelis Boyd. He has created some of the most gorgeous London renovations and of course, can’t forget, he is the behind behind the Soho house in Berlin and LA and the Byron burger chain. This project is his Elm Park Road project…so cool.

Notice this huge door on the left wall…also the gorgeous natural stone.

The door opens….

and a blackboard appears!!! This is a genius idea.

A very sweet children’s room with bunk beds and fun animal heads on the wall.

This looks like the best room in the house. What a cool hideaway.

This is a gorgeous combination, navy or indigo with camel…ooooh. And this headboard is just perfect.

This ceiling is insane! Oh, and those walls and floors. By the always amazing Shelton, Mindel & Associates.

I love Jenni Kayne’s style, in her fashion designs but also her store design and her blog. I am definitely into this door style…a little bit country and a little traditional chic.
