Political Climate influences 2017 Colors of the Year

It’s hard to imagine politics influencing design and color trends but then no one imagined the division this past election would elicit. Let’s face it, we are living in very tense and stressful times. Our solution to this stress is retreating into our sanctuary – our home – to regenerate and find balance. So, it’s not too hard to see the 2017 Color of the year for both Pantone and Sherwin Williams would elicit the feelings of warmth, hopefulness and new beginnings. However, these two choices, Greenery (Pantone) and Poised Taupe (Sherwin...

Gender Blur- You bet! Pantone’s Color of the Year

Gender Blur- You bet! Pantone’s Color of the Year

For the first time, Pantone has deviated from tradition and selected two colors as Color of the Year – Rose Quartz and Serenity. It is a much softer take on color than last year’s rich choice of Marsala. The delicate pink and tranquil blue creates a balance between the warmth of the rose tone and the coolness of blue. It also challenges the traditional perceptions of color pairing. Regardless, these colors create a sense of calmness and relaxation. The choice reflects many global changes in fashion with gender blurring designs and a younger...

2016 Interior Design Trends

I was recently asked by a local design magazine to contribute to an article on the 2016 design trends. As I am thinking about the latest in design, I thought it was a good time to share what I see happening for 2016. – The mix of rustic and modern continues to grow in popularity especially among young urban families. For example, a feature wall of reclaimed wood combined in a space with sleek modern elements is oh so fabulous. – Statement lighting is all the rage. Oversized, rustic Pendent lighting, artisan chandeliers, if it is...

Let’s uncork Pantone’s New Color of the Year!

Marsala is Pantone’s 2015 Color of the Year!   What a warm and earthy change from the recent previous years’ color selections!  Marsala, with its red-brown tones, embodies sophistication and style.   It is both dramatic and yet down to earth and will appeal to both men and women.  Marsala pairs beautifully with neutrals like grays, blacks and golds.  It is a complex color that can be grounding and practical when paired with gray or blue but luxurious when paired with gold.  To create a more modern look, try pairing it with mint green or a hot...

Small Bath is Big on Style!

Small Bath is Big on Style!

I’m really happy with the final result of this small bathroom update.  Small baths are tough – how do you maximize minimal space?  Well, with this bath we chose a neutral color palette, elongated tile designs and glass to make the space feel bigger.  We selected 6” X 24” gray ceramic floor tile and laid it vertical to the tub to create an illusion of a longer room.  We then added a 12” wide band of decorative tile in the center of the tube surround to draw the eye upward.  Finally, we added an updated vanity with quartz counter, updated...

A Screen Porch – Summer Fun in any Weather

My husband and I had plans to go to the shore last weekend, but the weather sounded, well let’s just say “wet”.  So we decided to hang out at home and rediscover what a blessing a screen porch can be!  A little rain didn’t bother us, comfy and cozy in our porch we enjoyed the outdoors without a care.  With weatherproof window panels and rug, along with sun resistant fabrics our porch is ready to use 3 seasons a year.   So bring it on Mother Nature, we have it covered!
