    Decor Mag Highlights: June 2010

    Friday, June 25th, 2010

    I finally got around to tearing and filing images from the June decor magazines.  There weren’t many images that evoked gasps of awe, but still many inspiring rooms with quiet elegance. Here are my favorites from Elle Decor and House Beautiful…

    I love the lucite table paired with those natural chairs.

    The accent pillows and ottoman take this room from boring to chic.

    Meg Ryan's home -- Apparently she also has great taste.

    I would give up wine for a year for these Holly Hunt chairs!

    Decor Mag Highlights: April 2010

    Thursday, April 15th, 2010

    Usually I find inspiration from a few different projects. This month I was primarily captivated by the London home of Christine D’Ornano — featured in Elle Decor’s April issue. All I can say is WOW! Take a peek at my favorite images below…

    Those Serge Mouille light fixtures are to die for.

    Industrial light fixtures + long farm table = Winner

    This bedroom almost convinces me to approve of matching wallpaper and headboards. Almost.

    Decor Mag Highlights: February/March 2010

    Thursday, February 18th, 2010

    I started to notice that my mailbox isn’t as full of interior design magazines as it used to be. I miss Domino as much as the next guy (or gal)! Here are my favorite images from this month’s (remaining) decor magazines. Elle Decor and Coastal Living are where I found the most inspiration; the below images are from these two publications.

    Sophisticated island chic can be done! Love the crisp black & white.

    The white and black palette and eclectic furniture works well.

    Chic neutrals is the theme for January/February Decor Mag Highlights.  Thanks to Elle Decor and House Beautiful for these inspiring interior shots!

    This creamy palette is perfect the sitting area of a master bedroom.

    Great composition and unique use of stripes. Not sure about the functionality of that coffee table though...

    The home owners made a wise decision to keep the rough texture on this dining room wall during the remodel. Love it!

    Monday, December 21st, 2009

    Check out my favorite images from the November/December issues of Elle Decor and House Beautiful. Also, a sad farewell to Metropolitan Home magazine…we will miss you!

    Wow, this room packs a punch!

    This room packs a punch! The color scheme provides great inspiration for a sitting room.

    The eclectic mix of prints and woods and generous use of linen and cotton create a sophisticated and comfortable retreat.

    Great idea to use two smaller tables and a freestanding L-bench in the place of an actual built-in banquette.
