Vintage Style

This West Palm Beach house was built in 1926 is up for sale. It's exterior says Spanish vintage but it's renovated interior is contemporary.  It's a classic beauty and there's not much for me to add so I'll just let you enjoy.

Husbands and Wives

When it comes to the bedroom most husbands don't want to feel as though it's been decorated without him in mind. I haven't met the guy who's comfortable in a frilly pink bed covered with  fluffy lace pillows. After all, he sleeps there too.  So, what I do suggest to bring him into the fold is choosing fabrics and colors that he can live with. Why this bedroom works for husband and wife has a lot to do with color and fabric. The blue is a soft ethereal shade that brings softness to the room. The fabric choices  are complimentary. The plaid brings in the masculine side while the brown velvet on the duvet is for her. The pillows are in many shapes and sizes. Accessories round out the room with chunky night stands and feminine lamps. I like pretty in the bedroom but when it's shared by the man of the house it can't be pink.

DwellStudio

Robert Allen and DwellStudio have partnered to create luxurious printed and woven residential fabrics with a bold and innovative color palette. This collaboration brings a distinctive modern aesthetic and  an update to classic graphic designs.  Although highly contemporary I wouldn't hesitate to use them to add punch to a traditional setting also.  These fabrics are wonderful...they feel good to the touch and are natural fibers.... Try them in your next design project.
