The layout of this room in itself is enough to make it a nominee the Room of the Week. But the white walls, collection of antique, traditional and vintage furniture, and sweet little details? That pretty much sealed the deal.
It's always a challenge to put together a multifunctional space, but I think this one is setting the bar. The richer wood tones and blue accents help the room from being too washed out, and there is a perfect balance of old and new as well. Something I'm working on achieving in my own space right now - and it's more of a challenge than I thought! I also like that it's not trying too hard to appear to quirky and mismatched, but it has those elements (mostly in the artwork and the variety of lighting).
More than anything though, these are the types of spaces that make me realize how much (or should I say little?) we really need to make a space beautiful and functional. I'm taking this lesson right into my own home and keeping only the essentials this time around. I have to say... it's a fabulous feeling!
