Hola! So sorry it has been a while, we have relocated to Barcelona! In honor of my love of Spanish design, and especially Balearic style, here are some amazing interiors by Berrow Projects. They do all the design and development of custom projects in Mallorca and I love their balance of chic, laidback interiors while preserving the charm and architectural history (this townhouse was built in 1890 and is just outside the town of Soller).  Perfect for modern living but still historic . . . a dream! Meet me in Mallorca?

Trend Spotting: Modern Organic

 This year I am loving modern organic spaces. I grew up in a very modern house, and while I love the clean lines of contemporary interiors, I think they are best when tempered by lots of warm layers and natural textures. Here is a bit of inspiration I have recently been filing away . . . .

Fresh + Clean: Happy New Year!

As much as I love the cozy, cluttered warmth of the holidays, there is something so invigorating about the crisp new year! Here's a bit of fresh interior inspiration I have been pinning lately . . . white walls can still lead to layered, interesting spaces. 

Wishing you all a beautiful, happy year to come! Happy 2019!

Singapore Design: Dark + Moody

I was thrilled when a client recently asked me for a 'dark and moody' master bedroom! He was imaging for rich, deep blue walls but was worried it would look to heavy. I love this look and when properly balanced with plenty of lighter elements, dark walls can create such a cozy and stylish space. 

Here are a few tips for making deep blue walls work:

+ opt for white or pale neutral bedding   

+ use art and light fixtures to break up the deep color on larger walls

+ chose a blue with green undertones or a dusty hue for a more sophisticated palette

For those of you in this part of the world, here are my Nippon paint picks!

Pretty City London

Earlier this summer we had an amazing family holiday in Europe and stopped over in London for a few days. It's always one of my favorite cities, so charming and lovely mix of old and new world style. Today I was just daydreaming via Pretty City London, one of my favorite Instagram accounts to follow. Stalking travel bloggers always makes me happy! Here are some images to help fuel your wanderlust . . . Any gorgous instagram accounts you follow for travel inspo? 

Product Love: Rattan Pendants

Rattan and wicker pendants are popping up all over recently and I am happy to say it's a trend I am fully behind. I love the natural, organic texture of these woven rattan lights. They offer a chic but breezy alternative to metal or glass fixtures and are often a super affordable option. I have used this great Ikea Sinnerlig pendant in a two projects recently. Here is some more lovely rattan inspo! (and in case you are looking, scroll to the end to see my favorite retail picks).  

These above are actually Vietnamese rooster catchers which have been fitted into light fixtures - you can really see chickens along the road under these traditional enclosures! We did the same on a recent project here, my client carried them back on the plane :) Super cost efficient and such an impact.
