A couple home tours I like….

So I came across this interior on Nuevo Estilo. I like the pops of mustard and teal, the black fireplace, letters for decor, sitting nooks and vases with leafy stems.

Osborn Architects designed the following. There are some other rooms from this home circulating the net but these rooms are new to me…

Glass, wood and steel. I LOVE it and this is coming from someone who generally cringes as the sight of any wooden walls. The same stain of wood from the walls to the chairs & those fabulous lighting pendants create a cohesive feeling. Score a similar fixture here

Bringing the outdoors in, this is a different take on rustic. See the other two posts I’ve ever done on wooden walls here & here

Love the nightstand and the bright door hue…

I could totally see myself relaxing in this seating space. The hardness of the concrete walls is softened by the softness of the velvet chairs. That abstract piece is awfully nice too. You can see the rest of the home on Rex Kelly. You’ll probably recognize some of the others which are more popular. Do you like those more or the ones I like?

A peak into a fabulous home office dubbed as the “mom cave” filled with thrifty finds…

I finally caught up on some reads with online shelter mags and realized I been missing out on some office eye candy! I love a room that has an eclectic mix of styles and colors. One that has visual richness from the colors and textures. One that oozes femininity but still has masculine structured touches. And to have the beauty of ones heels on display? Yes ma’am…visualgasms for me.

Saudah Saleem of Saudah Saleem Interiors is very house proud. She decided she and her husband could function with a bedroom in a smaller room with just the bed and nightstands, allowing the master to convert into her closet/office/mom cave.

The lamp was a thrift store find and paired with a linen shade and greek key trim found on clearance at walmart…

She didn’t want heaviness that a wooden desk would bring considering the bookshelves so she opted for a sawhorse desk with a glass top to keep if airy and allow you to see the beauty of the rug.

Her tips for creating a space that fits your needs is to start with assessing the room or area and determine the crucial functions. Next is determining what inspires you and the things that make you happy. Not to get caught up in the rules of design and instead make your own rules. Always purchase what you love and you’ll love what you have. I think those are great tips…

Color Schemes: Aqua, Mustard & Mocha Hues…

{via French Elle}

When I came across this picture I knew I needed to find interiors with this color scheme. The mustard and mocha hues reminds me of Autumn but the added aquamarine makes me think of calm ocean waters….

This color scheme is a different take for a kids space. It’s colorful but gender friendly…
