Dreamy Living Room of the Day!

Monday, June 6, 2011


Today I am wishing I lived here! I love the eclectic, relaxed style and feeling of coziness without looking cramped. Why it works?

1) Layering of deep yellows, deep blues, and neutrals
2) Fresh white walls
3) Fabulous striped painted floors
4) A mix of vintage pieces and new upholstery with modern lines
5) The dark wood and sea grass ceiling which gives so much texture
6) 3 small intimate seating groups instead of one large one



Happy Monday!

Dreamy Office of the Day

Monday, May 23, 2011



Sigh . . . I wish this was my home office! I adore the combination of the antique textiles: the susani, ikat, and shaggy Moroccan rug all in raspberry tones! Just dreamy. The organic, natural texture and color of the desk lightens the space so nicely and of course I love the two doggies for company. Just perfect if you ask me! Do you agree?

Dreamy Bath of the Day

Tuesday, May 17, 2011

How dreamy is this master bath? 
I think a fireplace in the bathroom is a true luxury of life! Plus the oversized mahogany mirror creates a cozy but still open space {brilliant how it even runs behind the counter to the floor!} Also love the softness the upholstered ottoman brings.


I love it, but what do you think . . . Too grand for a bath or just right?

Dreamy Interior of the Day: Ladylike Living Room

Saturday, May 7, 2011


I am a huge Miles Redd fan and I think this dreamy living room is just lovely! The ruffled curtains might certainly be too precious for me in another setting, but Redd does such a beautiful job of adding modern and eclectic pieces for balance!

What I love the most:

1. Wonderful chevron sofa
2. Grooved plaster wall treatment {you have to look close!}
3. Bold, graphic pillows
4. Shaggy Moroccan berber rug! 


Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!

Dreamy Interior of the Day: The Manly Lounge

Thursday, April 28, 2011

I am totally crazy for this masculine lounge area by Diego Ladino. It is refined and manly but also so beautiful and a bit quirky! 

Why Does it Work?
1) A great combo of materials and finishes: natural wood, heathered wool fabric, glossy black lampshades, marble
2) Lots of symmetry! {See my previous post on the art of pairing
3) Rich but refined colors! Cool neutrals, grays and black with a little bit of red in the cactus pot and the stack of books.

Dreamy Interior of the Day: Eclectic Lounge

Friday, April 15, 2011



My dreamy interior of the day is this relaxed and eclectic lounge-living room in the home of Roman Alonso, the creative director of Commune in House Beautiful {via Moodboard}. 


I especially love:

1. Red linen lampshade!
2. Deep greek mattress with an oversized bolster as the sofa! So casual and comfy.
3. Piles of floor pillows
4. The all black and white photography

Dreamy Interior of the Day!

Tuesday, March 29, 2011


Spotted this in an old issue of Domino - I miss you Domino! Why its dreamy (in no particular order! :)

1. Love the color combo of the buttery yellow with neutrals and the deep charcoal floor!
2. The extra long ottoman-coffee table. Never seen one quite this shape - great idea!!!
3. The lack of window treatments (unless you have a privacy issue!) So airy and open! 


xoxo Allison
