Carefully Edited but Liveable Aesthetic: interiors designed by Greg Natale
I could live in any one of his designed homes and be happy with life. The homes have comfortable looking seating that you want to lounge on but the spaces aren’t overwhelmed with things. It appears the choices of decor were carefully selected leaving a very clean look…
The molding is beautiful and gives so much character to the home. Love the arched entry. But with modern furniture, it feels fresh and not dated in time. I know a lot of people frown upon painting wood but I would totally do it too. To me, I appreciate the details more when painted white or black.
Love the gray & blue hues…

If you have room, place a console table or bench at the edge of your bed…

A very romantic room above. Really makes me want to create diy roman shades. I know tons of people spend a lot of time in their sleeping space. Not only that, I often see images of interiors where there is a ton of dead space in front of the bed. To me, this is the opportunity to add additional furniture. Either a console table that can double as a desk, or a bench where you can put shoes on in the morning. Need more storage? Consider putting a luggage trunk. If you have even more room, a small sofa will be lovely with a coffee table in front and an armoire housing a tv. It can be a private space to catch up on the news and sip some coffee before getting ready for the days activities. I just feel a room is more complete with something at the foot of the bed….
Lovely black and white. Bold but not overpowering.
This argyle styled headboard is ultra fabulous to me. I like the glossy finish of the footboard. Soft purples are relaxing and calming…

So glam with a rug that makes you wanna sink your toes into. Love the lacquered and gold coffee table, the textured grasscloth wallpaper and the shape of the headboard…

Masculine, streamlined, tailored and very stylish. This could be so coastal chic if there were sheer white fabric draped over the bed…
So which would you prefer: a desk, console/coffee table with chairs, a sofa loveseat, some sort of storage unit like baskets or a trunk, or a bench/ottoman?

Who said you cant put a bed against windows?…
{Decor Pad}
This west elm duvet cover looks sooooo comfy. I’m sure you all heard the design rule that beds should not be placed in front of windows right? Well, I personally wouldn’t want a window over my headboard. (Guess I watched entirely too many scary movies). If you find yourself stuck in a room with windows & a closet on multiple walls, you may think you have limited solutions on the layout. Let these pics dismiss that old rule..

Design Tip: If you want to hide a window or an unsightly view, simply do like THIS vintage glammed out bedroom by hanging wall to wall, floor to ceiling drapery panels….
Color Schemes: Blush Pale Pinks…
Powder blush hues are soft and feminine. I’ve seen it on Jennifer Lopez’s home which was featured in Veranda magazine. Though the hue is pale pink, it’s neutral enough to work for males. Accenting the space with golds brings warmth to the room. I even like the color paired with black. Ruffles and chiffon fabrics with black structural pieces like furniture is a super edgy look.

Mirrors in replace of headboards…
{Desire to Inspire}
Wrought iron, upholstered, & wooden aren’t the only materials that can make for a standout headboard. Try mirrors for an ultra GLAMOROUS look. When combined with a headboard, a mirror hanging overhead can make the bed a major focal point…

Tuesday’s Tips: (on a Wednesday) use screens behind headboards…
Yeah I forgot to do this post yesterday. Often times when we move, we don’t always have the means to buy all new furniture. Sometimes we end up in homes with really high ceilings. “A dream” right? Well if your furniture isn’t to scale with the space and too small, it’ll end up looking “a mess”. So when I came across THIS bedroom design, I thought how cool would it be to do this in a room where ceilings exceed the typical 8 ft height. You can make a regular sized headboard stand out is by pairing it with a giant screen. Anchor the screens to the wall to make them appear more grand in size. There you’ll have a beautiful focal point.
