We were visiting a favorite blog of ours, Bloesem, when we spotted a home’s interior that was simple, modern, clean, interesting, warm and more than that: accessible. The sort of home that anyone could design, not just those who have a ton of money for a brand new, huge modern — Continue reading
When it comes to different genres within the photography field, no one can argue that while capturing adorable photos of pets, animals and babies isn’t always easy, it totally trumps taking pictures of just about anything else. That doesn’t mean every pet and baby photographer is created equally, though; it’s — Continue reading
Way long ago when I graduated from college I went on a backpacking trip through Europe with a friend.

An old door turned into a stunning, herringbone-patterned dining table fit for the most lovely of modern interiors?! Don’t mind if I do partake in this DIY project.

Harry Bertoia. George Nakashima. Jens Risom. Marcel Breuer. Florence Knoll. The names of the designers who shaped the very idea of modernism. Whose designs are so classic, so jaw-dropping, so powerful that they still command a space whenever they’re in a room. We don’t have to spend paragraphs talking about how — Continue reading
Though we love a dramatic, sophisticated restaurant as much as the next blogger, it’s quite refreshing when you come across the interior of a restaurant that’s full of fun, too! Also nice: when the decor matches the feel and thrust of the business, as in the interior design of the — Continue reading
Hunting natural colors in the middle of the South American jungles must be the most adventurous way to build your palette for the coming season!!

If summer is the realm of light, airy, cheerfully-colored interiors, then no doubt fall and winter is the time for dark, rich, jewel-toned and dramatic spaces, don’t you think?

Windows. Ugh. Does anyone ever know what to do with these things? Leave them alone and it looks like your room is unfinished. Do too much and the whole room looks overdone. Sure they have lots of modern solutions like shades and rollers, but they can be expensive and have — Continue reading
What strikes me the most is the minimalism couple with the reinterpretation of conventional designs, with a fresh approach. Enhancing our every day usage makes it special. The Revolution Collection glassware’s contents seem to be floating and defying gravity holding up with wine, water, champagne or soup on a pedestal — Continue reading
We love the work that architect’s do…but ever wonder if you’d like the place where they do their work? On the neat website “Life of an Architect” (which is a cool read even if you’re not interested in where architect’s work), they had a recent call for photos of where architect’s — Continue reading
We know we usually post about furniture designers that we really love in our “We Like What They Do” series, but sometimes an accessory will come along that just forces us to have to talk about. And well, if that accessory happens to be functional and the perfect thing for — Continue reading

As much as we love technology and all the conveniences and wonders it has brought our life (in nearly every area of our life) we can’t help but feel a little sad when we think about how there has been a lot of encroachment on nature by technology and the — Continue reading
We think we have such an obsession with modern residential architecture set deeply into dramatic landscaping because the contrast is so strong.
