Recently a couple came to me and expressed the urge to make a change and increase the warm energy in their home. I say increase because their home already feels incredibly warm. As soon as you enter you are washed with warmth and positive energy. All is orderly, each item and piece of furniture placed thoughtfully throughout and reflective of their lifestyle and personal aesthetic. The color palette does exactly as it should – envelop you with comfort. One of the owners is an artist in his spare time and his engaging work is displayed in certain areas. His other half is a professional organizer so the accessories she has carefully chosen and placed don’t create clutter, they tell the story of her family’s life. I love the kitchen, too. The design of the kitchen is a result of its daily use. Steel shelving, a butcher block island and a large chalkboard with colorfully written daily thoughts and to-do lists join forces that are so pleasing to the eye you want to pull up a stool and hang out in there.
The next time you feel like you need a change but don’t know why or how, think out-of-the box and look to areas in your home that you don’t usually give a second thought to. You never know the magic you can create!
Rebecca; I’m so glad you ‘get’ our house and the vibe we live in. We’re so happy here and you’re right, that POP of color as we go up the stairs still gives me a little jolt of joy. Come back anytime!
A great solution, Rebecca, for enhancing further an already lovely home.
What a great post! I was truly touched and grateful for your design/color input. I love that landing!
