A quick post today. Below is a scheme we are working on for a guest bedroom in Florida.

The fabrics were selected around our Harem Print in orange on blue. We are planning on upholstering the walls with the Harem and the headboard with the orange C and C Milano fabric. The windows will be white linen with a blue or orange border on the leading edge. I absolutely love the lamps by John Dickinson for Sutherland and think the bedside tables from Holly Hunt are gorgeous. The floors will be wall to wall sisal.

A quick post today as we are busy working away on bedroom schemes for a new project. The goal is to keep things feminine, sophisticated, and not too serious.

I love this Groves Brothers print above. I imagine the headboard having a elegant shape.

This Rosslyn paper by Farrow and Ball is one of my favorites. I love how different it looks when the background is dark as shown below.

We have been working on schemes for a new client and I am just loving this project. The client is a young woman who is sophisticated and not afraid of taking risks. More than anything she loves discovering new ways to express her personal style.
The following two schemes are for the living room. We discussed keeping her existing sofa and adding deep cranberry and red tones to the room.


For the master bedroom she expressed her desire to go for a more neutral palette than what she currently has. The room has existing mill-work that can not be refinished with paint so we have been researching different ways of recovering the surfaces of these units. One thought is to cover the existing cabinetry with a grass-cloth. Another option would be the parchment wallpaper directly below. What I love about both of these schemes is that they are subdued yet playful.


The guest bedroom is where the client is willing to really go all out with color. She knows that she doesn't have to spend everyday in this room and therefore isn't worried about being overwhelmed by the colors or patterns. Regardless, I wouldn't tire of the below schemes and the first and last one are my personal favorites.
